Teleport is the gold standard for engineering teams accessing their own cloud infrastructure — SSH, Kubernetes and databases with identity-based certificates. But it's agent- and proxy-based and built for DevOps. ProxyLink targets a different job: MSPs reaching entire client networks — including NVRs, PBXs and switches no agent runs on — through one WireGuard tunnel per site.
| Feature | ProxyLink | Teleport |
|---|---|---|
| Primary audience | MSPs / IT / network teams | DevOps / platform / cloud eng |
| Reach NVR, PBX, switches, cameras with no agent | No (agent/proxy per resource) | |
| One tunnel reaches an entire site + VLANs | No (per-resource agents) | |
| Browser desktop access | RDP + VNC | RDP |
| Kubernetes / database access | ||
| Identity-based certificates, SSO, deep RBAC | Basic RBAC + 2FA | |
| Session recording + audit log | ||
| Fully managed, nothing to run | Self-host or Teleport Cloud | |
| EU-hosted infrastructure | US / configurable | |
| Setup complexity | Minutes (one tunnel) | High (cluster, agents, certs) |
Comparison reflects public documentation as of 2026. Teleport is a capable tool in its own category — this page focuses on the MSP / whole-site use case where the two differ.
Teleport secures resources you instrument — each server, cluster or database gets an agent or sits behind a proxy. NVRs, PBXs, managed switches and cameras can't run that, so they fall outside its model.
ProxyLink puts a single WireGuard tunnel on the router and reaches every device on the LAN — agentless at the device — including the network gear Teleport can't instrument.
Kubernetes, databases, CI/CD, certificate auth — Teleport is deep and excellent for platform teams. For an MSP managing 50 mixed-gear hotel and office sites, it's the wrong shape and heavy to run.
Clients, groups, per-tenant isolation, browser access to any device, a NIS2 audit portal — the workflow an MSP actually lives in, managed and EU-hosted.
