Building Your Own MikroTik Cloud Management Platform
Forget clunky expensive NMS. Learn how to build a modern, unified cloud dashboard for your MikroTik fleet using Wantastic.
The Chaos of Managing Multiple Routers
If you manage more than 10 MikroTik routers, you know the pain:
- Keeping track of IP addresses (did that dynamic DNS update?)
- Managing logins for every single device.
- Checking backups manually.
- "Which firmware version is the Customer A router on?"
You need a Cloud Management Platform. But proprietary NMS tools are expensive, complex, and often require their own dedicated hardware.
Enter Wantastic: The Cloud Dashboard for RouterOS
Wantastic transforms your scattered fleet into a unified cloud.
1. Centralized Dashboard
See all your routers in one place. Online status, CPU usage, memory, and firmware version at a glance. No more spreadsheets of IP addresses.
2. Automated Backups
Sleep easier knowing that every config change fits into a version-controlled backup system. Wantastic can automatically pull backups daily.
Feature Highlight: Our backups aren't just binary blobs. We visualize the differences so you can see exactly what changed between Tuesday and Wednesday.
3. Mass Configuration
Need to update a firewall rule across 50 routers? Don't log into them one by one. Use our Script Runner to push standard configurations to tagged groups of devices instantly.
4. Smart Alerts
Receive notifications via Email, Slack, or Telegram when meaningful events happen:
- Device goes offline.
- CPU spikes > 90% for 5 minutes.
- Unauthorized login attempt detected.
Why Not Just Use The Dude?
The Dude is great, but:
- It requires a Windows server or a specific MikroTik acting as server.
- It serves as a single point of failure.
- Remote access to The Dude itself can be insecure.
Wantastic is cloud-native, serverless, and scales infinitely without you managing any infrastructure.
