Why Nautobot? The Challenges of Modern Networking

Nautobot powers network automation by serving as both a Network Source of Truth and automation platform. It orchestrates network data and captures the intended state of the network, providing the validated data essential for scalable, repeatable, and data-driven automation.  Without a centralized Network Source of Truth, network automation becomes inconsistent and fragile.

Nautobot serves as a Network Source of Truth, orchestrating and validating data across multiple IT systems

Nautobot is vendor-neutral and multi-vendor by design, supporting Cisco, Arista, Juniper, and many more

Nautobot enables data-driven automation, reducing manual tasks and errors

Nautobot is designed for scalability and extensibility, with multiple customers managing over 100,000 devices
