Why teams switch From Fortinet to Tailscale
Forget tunnel drops
Tailscale connections are always-on — no dropped sessions, reauth prompts, or reconfiguring every time a device restarts.
Private by default
With Fortinet, a single misconfigured rule can expose internal services. Tailscale is private by default — no open ports, exposed gateways, or manual lockdowns required.
Auth that just works
SSO, MFA, and identity-based access controls come standard. Your team logs in with what they already use — no Fortinet add-ons, shared tokens, or copied links.
Tailscale does it right, join the thousands of companies switching
Fortinet VPNs weren’t built for modern teams
Fortinet works if you’ve got time to babysit hardware and juggle firewall configs. But things get complex fast. Appliances need patching, tunnels drop, and policies sprawl across interfaces and IPs. It’s designed for fixed networks, not flexible teams that need to move fast and scale.
Get secure access to servers, apps, and everything in between
Tailscale connects your infrastructure over a mesh network built on WireGuard®. It’s identity-first, not tied to IPs or firewall rules. No appliances to manage, patches to apply, or gateways waiting for the next zero-day.
Don’t let your networking trap you in the past
Legacy VPNs struggle with today’s distributed work, relying on complex setups like site-to-site links and dedicated lines to connect networks. Tailscale streamlines this with a software-based, infrastructure-agnostic solution that turns any device into a secure gateway.
Who else is switching?
Tailscale is the secure connectivity tool of choice for thousands of organizations, from ambitious startups to major enterprises, including Fortune 100 companies. There's a reason why they choose Tailscale to accelerate their growth without sacrificing security.
Pricing that works for everyone
For individuals who want to securely connect personal devices, for free.
For small teams seeking an easy-to-use and quick-to-deploy secure network access solution.
For growing teams seeking advanced service/resource-level networking and identity-aware access controls.
For organizations seeking advanced user and posture management, robust compliance, and dedicated support.
