| Purpose | libguestfs is a library and set of tools for accessing and modifying virtual machine disk images. | NetDrive mounts remote storage so files can be accessed like local files through Windows Explorer and macOS Finder. |
| Support | Users can ask questions on the libguestfs mailing list or IRC channel #guestfs on Libera Chat; Red Hat Enterprise Linux customers are directed to Red Hat Support. | Subscription plans include support and updates during the subscription period; the lifetime team plan includes lifetime support and updates. |
It suits developers and administrators who need to inspect or change virtual machine disk images, automate VM edits or build image-management workflows. Users on non-Linux systems should account for the need to compile from source and port it.
NetDrive may suit people who want remote storage to appear in desktop file browsers or prefer to manage remote files through its File Browser. Team drives and file locking may be useful for shared workflows.
