From about 12 years from now I (and my company) have worked with=20 small/medium ISPs or WISPs, always using Linux as the core router for=20 bandwidth management, QoS and load balancing. As for 3 years from now we have started to work in a product now called= =20 SequreISP[0], which is a final solution for small/medium ISPs, that now= =20 is at a very stable state, and the proof is it's been used for more tha= n=20 200 ISPs in more than 10 different countries worldwide[1]. With a range of clients up to 5000 per ISP, that is currently our mayor= =20 success case (in a single server), but we think this can grow up to=20 10000 or 15000 as well. SequreISP allows to do bandwidth management, QoS, load balancing=20 (current record is 40 ADSL lines in single server) and a lot more all=20 from a comfortable web interface (like a router) which is written in=20 Ruby on Rails. At a low level it generates tc(htb,sfq) queues and ip=20 ro/iptables commands. SequreISP comes with a core which has all the technicals features, whic= h=20 has been open sourced about more than a year ago with a AGPLv3 License.= =20 You can check the project page at github[2]. As you can quickly verify,= =20 the public repo has been keep up to date, with commits almost every day= ,=20 and that's because it is our main repo as well. All user interface is fully available in English, Spanish and=20 Portuguese, as well as the in-line documentation. There is also a commercial version of SequreISP, that comes with severa= l=20 modules adding extra(administrative) functionalities like a invoicing=20 tools, notifications(via captive portal), videocahe, help desk, among=20 others. We have a growing community of commercial SequreISP users, but=20 unfortunately there is no growing community from open source users and=20 developers as well. So this email is an open invitation for this to cha= nge. As a sysadmin and developer i can assure you that SequreISP solves a lo= t=20 of complex problems with a neat and effective approach. So if you are an ISP sysadmin or owner I really suggest you to give it = a=20 try. If you are also a developer you can contribute with the project and the= =20 community, and you can even make money from this, ie. writing your own=20 plug-in and selling it to our existing client database (like in an app=20 store). There is a lot of engineering and effort behind SequreISP and it is a=20 shame and a waste that a lot of people are not using it simply because=20 they don't know that it exists. We are going to be also giving some SequreISP free conferences in=20 August, in Buenos Aires[3], S=E3o Paulo[4] and Budapest[5] (following=20 Ubiquiti World Conference scheduling, in order to ease access), so if=20 you're going to this Ubiquiti events, or simply like to know us,=20 consider yourself invited. Thank you all for your time.
