Overview

Legacy VPNs grant broad network access and slow everything down, which is why zero-trust replacements have taken hold. Twingate offers software-defined access where identity, not a tunnel, decides what each user can reach, granting least-privilege connections to specific resources only. It targets startups, SMBs, and remote teams that want zero trust without a complex enterprise rollout, helped by a free tier for small teams. Setup is fast and agent-based, though each network needs a connector deployed and the deeper controls sit in paid tiers. Against legacy VPNs and heavier ZTNA vendors, it wins on simplicity and speed to deploy.

The problem Twingate solves

IT and security teams need a repeatable way to replace disconnected systems and manual handoffs with measurable operational execution.
