Redback used to be popular - I believe they got picked up by Ericsson.
I'd steer clear at a small scale like 20k subscribers. In my experience, Ericsson as an organisation just aren't set up to deal with a company that want to buy a couple of boxes, install and run them themselves, and call support when something breaks - it's all about multi-month PoCs and fully-managed rollouts at incumbent-telco scale. Think 20M subs, not 20k.
I've heard Redback aren't so good anymore. We are very happy with Cisco (ASR1000s) and Juniper (MX480s) for this function. Cheers, James.
