| Fact | Netpicker | rConfig |
|---|---|---|
| Deployment | Netpicker is available as a Docker container or an OVA virtual appliance, and can run on-premises or air-gapped. | V8 Core is open source and runs on the customer's hardware; the download page says Pro, Enterprise, and Vector are tailored deployments rather than downloads. |
| Integrations | Netpicker provides API-based connections to source-of-truth systems, Git, ITSM tools and other existing tools. | The integrations page lists device sync for Zabbix, NetBox, Nautobot, Statseeker, AKIPS, Checkmk, PRTG, and Infrahub, plus HashiCorp Vault credentials and SAML/OIDC identity. |
| Support | Foundation includes a knowledge base, YouTube training courses, best-effort tickets and best-effort Discord; Professional adds 24-hour ticket response and a private Discord channel. | V8 Pro includes updates and priority support in Year 1; the licence becomes perpetual afterward, with renewals only for continued support and updates. |
