I'd like to offer Netmaker as an alternative. Caveat, I'm one of the creators so grain of salt, etc.

It's completely self-hosted, so none of your traffic will go through our servers. You can also use basic auth by default (though there is also OAuth). Finally, as a bonus, it's much faster because you can use kernel WireGuard.

I won't claim it's as user-friendly as Tailscale (yet). It definitely requires more technical knowledge to set up, especially considering it's not a SaaS. But if you're willing to get through the initial setup (Day 0 / Day 1), you should be golden.




What is your solution for mobile clients? A quick perusal didn't show anything in the docs.


We don't have our own mobile client yet, so right now we rely on the WireGuard app. You configure a gateway, and then generate raw WireGuard configs + QR codes which hook them into the network: https://docs.netmaker.org/external-clients.html
