What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Typical business problems which relies on zero trust for all internal tools which we built and security of authentication from twingate helps.
Stable and Easy for End Users to enroll
What do you like best about the product?
With MDM, you can deploy the client to devices and have users enroll within a few minutes. Twingate offers many policy controls, and device posture checks to allow access based on their status. We had a team of 10 enrolled in a single day and seamlessly migrated traffic using the DNS name to flow through Twingate and close-off ports. It's now a daily tool that people don't think about.
What do you dislike about the product?
Twingate doesn't offer an easy way to stream logs out of twingate into an SIEM product, but it can export to Amazon S3. (not any S3 compatible)
Policy and Group configuration can be a little convoluted, but once configured, it can be changed on the fly with fast replication to connected clients.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Access into Cloud infrastructure and eliminating a need for a whole device VPN with central hubs.
Simple, secure and effective
What do you like best about the product?
Twingate was a breath of fresh air after many months of trying to find a ZTNA solution that fit our needs. Having previously opted to use another company that ultimately fobbed us off for not being 'enterprise' enough I was glad to find Twingate that was both featureful and sensibly priced.
The initial setup was incredibly straightforward, to the point where I was suspicious I was missing something key. But within a short amount of time I had thrown together a proof of concept and a couple of weeks later had it rolled out to the rest of the company.
We now have staff using it daily, to access all sorts of resources, with full control and logs of who is accessing what and when.
While I can't speak too deeply into the security of it, from what I've read it appears secure without over-complicating things, and where possible traffic doesn't traverse Twingate's network - and even if it does, it's through a straight-through secure tunnel between the client and the connector.
All the staff I've spoken to, from support to sales have been friendly, helpful and understanding, helping to iron out any of our onboarding issues.

What do you dislike about the product?
Some features feel like they lack the 'full implementation' - e.g. the auto-lock and request access feature - the fact a resource can't be 'request only' without the rolling auto-lock window is frustrating. We don't need such strict control on our resource access so it's not a deal breaker but if you do need something like Teleport's Just-in-time access feature understand it's not quite the same.
The arbritary minimum users required to get any support on the top-plan felt a little unusual. I understand needing to cover costs, and thankfully we just hit that minimum, but if we were much smaller I feel like we would have been out in the cold.
Their in-built DNS security is a great drop-in for introducing DNS security to all staff, but the narrow options on being able to control logging mean that we won't use it - logging all requests isn't something we're interested in doing and believe it betrays the trust of our staff. In the mean time we've opted to use the NextDNS integration which was really straight forward.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Twingate to help us control access to resources in our cloud environments (databases, caches, virtual machines etc.) as well as servers within our office network.
It makes it really straight forward to control staff access to various resources, replacing our VPN which was a single point of failure.

Super easy and secure replacement for old VPN
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of setup, easy to integrate and use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lake of additional value-added features - Like tailscale has. Magic DNS, share files between machines.
Also - Streaming videos using WebRTC from our servers does not work using Twingate.
Upgrade of connectors is tedios.

Easy, Secure, and Scalable – Twingate
What do you like best about the product?
It help us make the non production env secure and accessible for developers.
What do you dislike about the product?
Connector updates are less frequent and need manual effort. Instead I just created the existing connector.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially we were looking for VPN solution but after some research found that ZTNA is best option and Twingate best filts the requirements.
We were using jumphosts (bastian) to access private resources but it was not easy to to SSH tunneling for everyone, specialy for non tech persons.
Twingate provide easy to use platform that allows to create gropup of individuals and network and then manage these access .

Good VPN solution

What do you dislike about the product?
NO Linux VPN client, so far it looks like there is only MacOS support
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease to manage and scale VPN
The software and the experience was a train wreck !
What do you like best about the product?
The only upside seemed to be slightly faster than a traditional IPSec VPN. What our users seemed to enjoy most is when we moved off of twingate. We got a handful of "thank you"s when we uninstalled it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't play well with fluid users that move in and out of the office. There' s no way to have internal subnets ignored, traffic always wants to go out to twingate and back. There's no mechanism to handle 802.1X. If there's an issue, and there are many, they want you to collect logs, send them to support, and wait while they get analyzed. In the few times we tried, it took over 4 to 8 hours to get a response back. In the meantime, you wait... because we were under deadlines, we quit opening trouble tickets, and re-installed our old solution. We don't have the money to waste having our users down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were trying to deploy twingate as ZTNA. It didn't benefit us. We scraped it due to too much downtime with our users.
A good VPN Gateway for the Clouds and other tools
What do you like best about the product?
Twingate is a VPN gateway that supports the Amazon Web services cloud platform and helps to use the features of VPN to the cloud. It is simple to set up and log in via MFA code.
The Twingate support is also cooperative and helpful.

What do you dislike about the product?
The previous versions were a bit slow, but the updates are better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It offers great VPN services and simple to login with directly the MFA code once registered with the organization's domain.
