NetBird vs ToolJet: at a glance
What is NetBird?
NetBird 0.79.0 enters RC with mobile MDM and a DNS architecture change
NetBird is simultaneously running an RC for 0.79.0 and canary builds for 0.80.0 and 0.81.0. The 0.79.0 RC brings mobile MDM support for iOS and Android, a shift from eBPF-based DNS forwarding to DNAT for port 53 (more portable across kernel versions), custom domain expiry enforcement, hardened OIDC issuer validation, and light/dark/system theme support. The canary builds layer on proxy rate limiting, session read-lock correctness, and relay reconnection fixes.
What is ToolJet?
ToolJet ships Custom Component Library and tightens enterprise controls on path to AI-native low-code.
ToolJet is running two parallel tracks: an LTS branch delivering incremental reliability and plan-level limit expansions, and a beta track already carrying LLM provider switching, MCP bundled into the EE image, Personal Access Tokens, and 2FA. The gap between beta and stable is where the platform's real direction lives — AI builder + enterprise security controls converging into a single product.

NetBird 0.79.0 enters RC with mobile MDM and a DNS architecture change
◆ Current state
NetBird is simultaneously running an RC for 0.79.0 and canary builds for 0.80.0 and 0.81.0. The 0.79.0 RC brings mobile MDM support for iOS and Android, a shift from eBPF-based DNS forwarding to DNAT for port 53 (more portable across kernel versions), custom domain expiry enforcement, hardened OIDC issuer validation, and light/dark/system theme support. The canary builds layer on proxy rate limiting, session read-lock correctness, and relay reconnection fixes.
◆ Where it's heading
NetBird is adding enterprise and mobile deployment capabilities in each cycle. The MDM bridge for iOS/Android addresses corporate device management. The DNS DNAT change trades eBPF's performance edge for broader kernel compatibility — suggesting a push to support more client environments (older kernels, containers without eBPF, etc). Regular security hardening (rate limits, OIDC validation, forwarded-IP trust) indicates a compliance-aware user base.
◆ Prediction
Version 0.79.0 GA will follow the RC shortly. The 0.80.0/0.81.0 canary cadence suggests continuous delivery with overlapping cycles. RHEL certification metadata (added in the 0.81.0 canary) points toward formal enterprise distribution channels.
ToolJet
6.3INFRA · APIS
ToolJet ships Custom Component Library and tightens enterprise controls on path to AI-native low-code.
◆ Current state
ToolJet is running two parallel tracks: an LTS branch delivering incremental reliability and plan-level limit expansions, and a beta track already carrying LLM provider switching, MCP bundled into the EE image, Personal Access Tokens, and 2FA. The gap between beta and stable is where the platform's real direction lives — AI builder + enterprise security controls converging into a single product.
◆ Where it's heading
The consolidation of tooljet-mcp into the EE production image is the clearest signal: ToolJet is treating MCP as a first-class integration layer, not an experiment. PATs threading through groups, workflows, plugins, and MCP auth suggest an API-first model is being built on top of the visual layer. The Custom Component Library core gives power users the extensibility path that previously required forking the platform.
◆ Prediction
LLM provider switching and MCP-based datasource connectivity will stabilize to LTS within the next few releases — both are already merged in EE. Once stable, these features position ToolJet against agentic-workflow tools as much as against no-code competitors.
