Compare Devolutions Gateway vs. Devolutions Workspace

Conventional remote access methods such as VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) often come with challenges, including increased complexity, performance drawbacks, and potential security vulnerabilities. Devolutions Gateway provides a more secure solution: it establishes lightweight, memory-safe tunnels that activate only as required. This is particularly beneficial for overseeing external contractors or remote IT personnel, as it ensures that sessions are transmitted securely without putting backend servers at risk. The Gateway is compatible with RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), SSH (Secure Shell), VNC (Virtual Network Computing), PowerShell, among others, all facilitated by just-in-time (JIT) access through pre-approved tokens. Included in the Remote Access Management suite are essential components: Devolutions Launcher for seamless one-click access, Hub or Server for managing and storing credentials, and role-based access control (RBAC) to guarantee that users can only view what they are permitted to see. Additionally, every action taken within the system is meticulously logged. Collectively, these features supplant traditional VPNs with a swift, flexible, and auditable access framework—an ideal choice for organizations that place a high value on both security and user-friendliness. Such a modern solution not only enhances operational efficiency but also fortifies overall cybersecurity measures.

Passwords are a ubiquitous aspect of the workplace, found across various applications, websites, and servers. Devolutions Workspace consolidates these credentials into a single interface that is compatible with Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and web browsers. It allows users to autofill their credentials, manage entries with role-based access control (RBAC), and handle urgent access requests—all without exposing the actual passwords. Within Workspace, features such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) via Devolutions Authenticator, secure messaging within the app, and an offline mode enhance security and convenience. Administrators have the ability to enforce robust security policies, while users benefit from a seamless login process that minimizes friction. The backbone of this setup is the Workforce Password Management package, which links Workspace to a centralized credential storage solution, whether through the cloud-based Devolutions Hub or the self-hosted Devolutions Server, tailored to your infrastructure requirements. This integrated approach empowers growing teams to effectively manage their password environment, reducing chaos and improving access governance while avoiding the complexities and expenses associated with traditional solutions. In the end, Devolutions Workspace not only simplifies password management but also fosters a more secure and efficient working environment.
