A comprehensive hands-on comparison of nearly every IP KVM device available for homelabs, covering PiKVM, BliKVM, GL-iNet Comet/Pro, Sipeed NanoKVM (multiple variants), JetKVM, LuckFox PicoKVM, LeafKVM, TinyPilot Voyager 3, Openterface KVM-GO, Pi-Cast, DezKVM-Go, and ArkKVM. Each device is evaluated on price, chipset, key features, and open source status. Security risks are highlighted — including a real FBI visit triggered by a Sipeed NanoKVM used in corporate espionage. The JetKVM is recommended as the daily driver for its compact size, polished UI, and bus-powered simplicity, while PiKVM remains the gold standard for features. The market is rapidly expanding with new models launching constantly.
