Tailscale is for distributed teams that need remote access to internal apps and whole networks. Subnet routers connect physical locations or cloud environments, while identity-provider policies supply SSO and MFA.
Standard is listed at $8 per user per month and includes SCIM provisioning. Ask Tailscale to explain its control-plane hosting model if customer operation is a requirement.
