Teleport Alternative
Teleport is great, paved the way for safer internet with its community edition for many years. It isn't without many drawbacks from their older architecture, like requiring certificates infrastructure. It was built before wide adoption of IDPs, resulting in a lot of unnecessary headaches with certificates to this day, even as IDPs already abstract these problems with their protocols. Despite the management overhead, Teleport was securing servers, containers, and databases access for many. But it just came to and end.
However, Hoopdev's access gateway has Packet Manipulation capabilities. Built on top of OIDC and OAuth 2.0, you achieve the same level of security but delegating certificates management to IDP services. But as the Teleport features are things we consider table stakes and basics of our tool, we're giving it for free.
We want to maintain the path for a safe internet paved even as Teleport starts charging small teams and raise prices on paid customers. We can afford to do that because Teleport features aren't our bread and butter.
Therefore even the Just-in-time access that is only available in Teleport Enterprise are table stakes for us, and are now part of our free solution.
But why? Because the Hoopdev gateway is past the basics of SSO and session recording. We can afford to do this because we make money with Package Manipulation features like live AI Data Masking, AI Copilot Query Builder, Privileged Action Review and secure execution, and many more.
Therefore if you're looking for an alternative to Teleport to stick to a free solution, give Hoopdev a try.
