Love headscale, we just took it to production and it’s been great

As in you rolled out an internal service for the whole company?!

As opposed to what? This seems pretty normal.

We considered it as well but there was a feature missing that meant we couldn’t use it for one of our main requirements. Had that not been the case, we’d have rolled it out.

Honestly I'm hazy on the details but we're running a fairly complex environment in GCP with PSC everywhere, connections to on-prem and other external environments, and something wouldn't quite work due to all that.

Sorry I can't provide any more details but I really don't remember the specifics. We were in touch with Tailscale engineers and they offered some workarounds that we had already worked out but that wouldn't help us achieve what we were after.
