01.Evaluation guide

Who it suits

Retiring a legacy VPN on a budget, at a known headcount. $5 a user to 100 people is the cheapest commercial seat of the three, and device posture checks and least-privilege policies arrive at that tier rather than above it.

Consider something else if…

You are relying on the free plan for work, or you do not know your headcount. Starter is limited to NON-COMMERCIAL use, which neither of the others restricts, and every paid tier caps users as well as charging per user — so growth changes the plan and not just the invoice.

Pricing modelPer user per month AND capped by user count at every tier: Starter is free to 5 users, Teams is $5 to 100, Business is $10 to 500. You pay per head and the plan still runs out of heads, which is a different shape from a per-seat price with no ceiling.
