At times I can't find certain configuration options, which makes it take a little longer to perform some tasks, but it's rare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to implement, It does great job on session recordings and user access management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Creating minimalistic cluster across different environments is still a huge pain, specially using multiple agent and initial token for registering agent is not well designed. on-premise data in mix architecture not well thought. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Loads of features - recording, auditing, easy to use
- Flexibility - deploy in your own environment or go with cloud
- Prebuilt connectors for popular apps
- Onboarding assets is a breeze Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- SSO is Enterprise only feature
- Prebuilt connectors are Enterprise only feature
- Open Source edition is okay for a home lab or very small setup but for anything meaningful, you need the enterprise version which is paid
- Not easy to integrate with IAM tools like Sailpoint Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to set up and easy to use. Teleport has excellent documentation, and I have received invaluable support from the engineering team. Our alternative to Teleport is a painful process of going through multiple jump boxes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not many video demonstrations that I have been able to find. Also, tctl command is not usable on Windows. I still have much to explore with Teleport, so I cannot address all pain points that I may have later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Teleport is the single source of truth.
Manage secure access from a single source, with great audit logs for the security team.
Reduces decentralized management efforts into a single small effort point.
Great slack support for non paying customers too! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The documentation could be a little broader.
Even though the existing is better then a lot of other software vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best functionality of Teleport summarised as;
Simplified Access Management: Teleport helps users replace the complexity of managing multiple passwords, keys, and tokens with short-lived SSH and X.509 certificates. This simplification can enhance security and ease the burden of access management tasks.
Centralized Access Control: With Teleport, users can have a single access point and SSO provider for various infrastructure resources, including SSH servers, Kubernetes clusters, databases, and more. This centralized approach improves convenience, visibility, and security.
Flexible Policy Management: Teleport allows users to define access policies using familiar tools like Terraform or Kubernetes resources. This flexibility enables them to define fine-grained access rules across different environments, clouds, and protocols, making it easier to enforce security and compliance requirements.
Session Recording: The session recording feature of Teleport is highly valued for auditing, compliance, and troubleshooting purposes. Users can record sessions across various protocols and review them later, providing valuable insights into system activities and enhancing accountability.
Mutual TLS Tunnels: Teleport offers mutual TLS tunnels to protect infrastructure endpoints, ensuring secure communication between clients and servers. This encryption helps safeguard sensitive data and mitigate the risk of unauthorized access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The concerns felt about when using Teleport:
Initial Setup Complexity: Configuring and setting up Teleport may require some technical expertise and familiarity with the infrastructure components it interacts with. Users who are new to Teleport or have limited experience in managing access control systems might find the initial setup process a bit complex.
Learning Curve: Teleport offers a wide range of features and capabilities, which can result in a learning curve for new users. Understanding and effectively utilizing all the functionalities may require some time and effort.
Integration Challenges: Integrating Teleport with existing infrastructure components and tools may present some challenges. Ensuring smooth integration and compatibility with different environments, protocols, and applications might require additional configuration and troubleshooting.
Limited Protocol Support: While Teleport supports several protocols, users might find that it doesn't cover all the specific protocols they need for their infrastructure. If users rely heavily on protocols that are not supported by Teleport, it could limit their ability to fully leverage its benefits.
Performance Considerations: Depending on the scale and complexity of the infrastructure, some users may experience performance considerations when using Teleport. This can include potential latency or overhead introduced by the proxy, especially in large-scale deployments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very easy to set up and use, easy to share device access and permissions with colleagues. Easiest way we have found to enable secure and compliant access to devices on customer sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Updating to a newer version seems to come with the risk of orphaning devices in the field.
We are having issues on one machine where it continually asks for the user to log in. This seems to have been down to the method of installation (via apt) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The product works great. It's easy to implement, maintain, and will grow with us. The DX and UX is fantastic. The support is stellar. We're using Teleport cloud and saving a ton of time and money while also improving our security posture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The adoption internally took some strong strategic communication and documentation. A change of this magnitude is company-wide, so that makes sense. Teleport support helped! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up groups and user permissions to access our Kubernetes services is simple and intuitive, without any internal documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Setting up teleport to work with all systems within AWS is not simple, requiring reading and implementing multiple services without a quick bootstrapped solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to define a ZERO Trust policy, but ALSO leveraging private networking so you don't have to expose all your systems to the raw internet is a HUGE win in today's climate. We should ALL be considering Teleport and tools like it to ensure our company and personal assets are protected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That it isn't as well advertised as it could be. More people need to know about this product and use it. I would also like to see a "one click" install setup that can help make things even smoother! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
