“1. OPNsense – Best overall for most deployments”
“For a network engineer deploying on custom x86 hardware, my default recommendation is OPNsense—but VyOS is arguably better if your appliance is primarily a router rather than a stateful edge firewall.”
“Consideration: VyOS is strong in routing and automation, but strictly speaking it’s more a network OS than a “firewall distro” like pfSense/OPNsense.”
“For a network engineer deploying a firewall on custom hardware, my top choice is OPNsense—unless your priorities are heavily tilted toward routing, automation, or carrier/enterprise networking, in which case VyOS may be better.”
OPNsense alone is ranked in Home network firewalls, Subscription-free hardware firewalls and Network traffic analysis.
