For end-users to note there is also better IPV6 support and proxy add WPAD support.

Should be IPv6 (yes I know I am nitpicking)

I have yet to use OPNsense in production. I have been lazy, thanks to pfSense I might get a kick depending on how 2.5 goes.

I would like to know what software others are using for networks. For large and or fast networks I'm still using pfSense, for smaller networks I use OpenWRT. Unfortunately I also still maintain a few MikroTik systems (very popular in "developing countries". I have not used Cisco since 2009 and I refused to touch FortiGate regardless of how much money people throw at me. I still want to test VyOS (Fork of Vyatta).

I know many people bundle hardware with software, so if you want to mention hardware too go for it.
