Ahh, I see, thanks for clarifying. That was correct, now any OIDC-compatible identity provider (Auth0, Okta, Azure/Microsoft Entra, Google, Keycloak, etc.) is supported on all the tunnelers to my knowledge.

Lots of work continues to go into the UX, but I would note that we focus most of the UI/UX work into NetFoundry, our commercial product.

That is good news!

The problems we had is users could not reliably tell when they were connected/disconnected, how to initiate the login flow, get network status (why is that service not working, but this other one is?), tell to which router they were connected, etc etc. I know these are big asks, and I suspect a lot of these troubleshooting and status info are probably available in the commercial offering.

That being said I think OpenZiti/NetFoundry is in a different class entirely and any lurkers here should consider it for their use. It's not really the same thing as NetBird or Tailscale.

Yeah, definitely more on the commercial side of the product.

And agreed, I like NetBird/Tailscale/Wireguard, but they are better VPNs, not identity-first, zero trust overlays as OpenZiti/NetFoundry is. That's why companies like Siemens have adopted it and many more will.
