Collaborator access vs a traditional VPN

VPN connectivity is often necessary — and still only part of the problem. Bstrapr focuses on who should reach which Site, and when that access should end.

Traditional VPN: network membership and shared administration patterns
Bstrapr: named collaborators, Site-scoped grants, and lifecycle/offboarding
Designed for external talent — contractors, agencies and specialists
Bring-your-own infrastructure; connectivity supports access, it is not the whole product

This page compares operating models, not unsupported feature checklists. Use a VPN-centric tool when network connectivity is the primary need. Use Bstrapr when the buying trigger is granting and revoking outside collaborator access to infrastructure you already own.
