Positive feedback highlights lightweight design and compatibility while suggesting more AI integration
Silverfort helps identify blind spots in your identity and access management, covering areas that traditional systems don't, such as command line tools. It checks your Active Directory authentication and continues only if the check is okay, plus it works with older protocols such as NTLM, which is a significant advantage. It's complementary to other tools you may have, whether they are TAM solutions such as Delinea or Xerox. Silverfort also has a lightweight adapter for domain controllers, and it finds gaps in security. Its capabilities are expanding regularly, with new features voted on every few months. For companies with large Active Directory implementations and zero staff, Silverfort provides instant results in identifying risks and blind spots. It also includes built-in virtual features, and while I don't know the exact pricing, it's not expensively priced, making it an attractive option.

Centralized access has strengthened secure troubleshooting and daily operations in restricted environments
Teleport offers excellent proxying capabilities, where you add Teleport SSH proxy, as well as strong support for web applications. Since we are tunneling into a restricted environment, Teleport serves as the one essential point of access, and it is highly secure due to our utilization of Okta and VPN for entering the environment. We use Teleport every day because the environment is restricted, and Teleport is the necessary access point. We are the sole team responsible for the production environment, which is a requirement from our sponsors. It does not take much to maintain it since the maintenance team handles it regularly, ensuring updates occur without disrupting progress. We, as the SRE team, coordinate to ensure Teleport remains operational so that we can troubleshoot and access systems.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Silverfort helps identify blind spots in your identity and access management, covering areas that traditional systems don't, such as command line tools."
"Teleport has replaced earlier methods like a bastion server or a jump server, which required connecting to physical servers."
"Teleport has helped us minimize incidents and maintain our uplinking time and uptime, and our organization's uptime is 99.90%, which is almost 100%."
"The best features include its main capabilities such as collecting actions and showing others what you did on the server, an easy way to connect to any bare-metal servers, and the ability to describe which servers you can use and who can connect to these servers."
"I recommend it for its straightforward setup and strong security features."
"I would definitely advise others looking into using Teleport to try it out if they are seeking a tunneling or proxying solution to streamline obtaining access without dealing with DNS or SSH, as it is straightforward to install, can be tested in various environments, and is a truly exceptional product that is easy to use."
 

Cons

"If Silverfort could integrate a gentle type of AI similar to Microsoft Copilot or enable workflow creation similar to Salesforce, it would further improve user navigation, even though the platform is already simple."
"Managing 700 to 800 services is not easy."
"Teleport is simple to use, but sometimes it requires extra research for more unique tasks, which slightly detracts from its overall quality."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
"I think it should have less complexity to set up on self-hosted because it is still a difficult process and I spend a lot of time using it on self-host."
"I cannot download or share session recordings directly with others, which would be useful for documentation or reviews."
