How to get started
Sign up to get the installer
Personal Edition is free and open source. The signup is a $0 Stripe checkout that gives us your email so we can send the download link and keep an aggregate count of users — no card capture, no charge. See pricing for Enterprise (NetStacks Controller for teams).
Get your download link
After signup, a download link is emailed to you. The link gives you signed installers for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Prefer to verify the binary yourself? Build from source — see Source Code & Building from Source. Need help? Contact us.
Install and connect
Run the installer and add your first device. No license key to enter — Personal Edition is full-featured out of the box. The Quick Start Guide walks through the first 5 minutes.
