SSO is too expensive for us as it stands, but I dont think it's too expensive in general. We have 50 some people that would need a license. Some might call this SSO tax but there is a definite use case for ZeroTier without end-user involvement, so to me this is a bit of a niche product for people who want a 2nd factor of auth on their ZT nodes. Maybe someday the price will make sense for us, but it's hard to justify a VPN solution going from free > $450/yr > ~$3500/yr at the moment when every other year we are adding on more subscription software, and every one of them wants to eat away at operational margin with the promise of ROI. This one doesn't really have ROI, it's more for risk mitigation which is sometimes even harder to quantify financially.
My top wish-list item for a controller UI is API compatibility with Central, because most of the interesting network automation tools are built for Central instead of the bare controller API. It would be awesome to be able to both self-host a controller and use zeronsd, for instance (even though doing so is not really supported, but kind of is supported in an undocumented way), but alas, Central itself is not available to self-host.
