Twingate plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | Free | 3 | Entry tier |
| Business | On request | 4 | Priced on request |
| Enterprise | On request | 3 | Priced on request |
What each tier adds
The set difference between each tier's feature list and the one beneath it. Where a tier lists nothing new, the vendor has either stopped repeating the inherited list or the tier raises limits rather than adding capability, the record does not distinguish the two, so this page does not either.

- Per user per month billing

What the product covers
The full Twingate feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Outbound only connectors
- Per resource access
- Identity provider integration
- Device posture checks
- Split routing
- Access logging
People bring Twingate in for retiring a vpn concentrator that grants whole network access to anyone who authenticates, giving contractors access to two internal applications without putting them on the corporate network, reaching private cloud resources across several accounts without building peering and bastion hosts, producing per user access logs for an audit that a network level vpn cannot supply. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to Twingate are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Networking
Too few networking tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the Twingate badges page.
Before you pay for Twingate
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: 3 tiers between Free and On request, with the jump itemised above. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
Twingate runs on windows, macos, linux, ios, android, docker, and is published by Twingate Inc of Redwood City, California, United States. The full record is on the Twingate review, and the rest of the category is under best networking tools.
