Instead of flexiWAN

flexiWAN alternatives

flexiWAN combines open-source SD-WAN and SASE, with centralized management, local routing and security, and synchronization and monitoring. It supports multiple tunnel topologies, application-based path selection, internet breakout, zero-touch provisioning, multi-WAN failover, and load balancing. Firewall controls, a modular App Store, cloud and VPS deployments, and virtual appliances extend its scope. A free tier covers 1–5 instances; paid plans start at $33/mo (annual), and the 30-day trial includes support with installation and configuration.

Its 10-site limit and API, Linux, self-hosted, and web platform options may not fit every network. Some readers may prefer identity-centered access, WAN bonding, or a software-only platform layered over existing circuits. Before switching, compare each option’s link handling, application policies, deployment model, and security approach with flexiWAN’s combined routing and security. Also consider whether a focused access or traffic-management product better fits your needs than an SD-WAN platform, and how the alternatives’ pricing and device or site scope fit your deployment.
