NordLayer Pricing FAQ

Is NordLayer better than NordVPN for business?

Yes — NordLayer is built specifically for business use cases with centralized management, dedicated gateways, Zero Trust access, and compliance features that NordVPN does not offer.

What is Zero Trust Network Access?

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) means users only get access to specific applications they need, not the entire network. This significantly reduces your attack surface compared to traditional VPN.

How many users does NordLayer support?

NordLayer scales from small teams to enterprise. Minimum is typically 5 users on Lite/Core plans. Enterprise plans support hundreds of users with custom pricing.

Does NordLayer work with SSO?

Yes — NordLayer Enterprise supports SSO/SAML integration with Okta, Azure Active Directory, and Google Workspace for centralized identity management.
