We took the final barrier for you, now you just have to plug it in and power it up…
Ever since the introduction of open source, there has been one common challenge that binds them all..
the lack of turn-key open source appliances,so if you like the software you will have to build your own server, firewall, phone system or whatever open source appliance you require.

In the end that is where the real cost is as you need to find out where to buy quality hardware, test and install the software on it…
And then? Well most of the time things aren’t going as planned.

So when we introduced our first appliances we had two things in mind:

With our OPN line appliances we added another dimension to this philosophy
and for the first time open source can finally win the battle from the commercial competitors.

Take a look for yourself and be amazed!
