From the vendor

Rublon is a cloud-based multi-factor authentication platform from the Polish technology company Rublon, part of Astec Group, designed to strengthen security for organizational access to networks, servers, applications and VPNs. The platform started in 2011 as the world's first commercial passwordless login solution and has evolved to support multiple authentication methods including mobile push notifications, FIDO security keys, one-time passwords, email links, SMS codes and passcodes.

Rublon suits MSPs and organisations wanting to deploy MFA organisation-wide without a single-vendor lock-in requirement. It integrates with Microsoft Entra ID, Active Directory and legacy systems through LDAP, RADIUS and SAML protocols, allowing protection of Windows login, Remote Desktop Protocol, SSH, VPN access and on-premise applications. The platform offers role-based access control, geolocation-based policies and device trust conditions, allowing administrators to enforce authentication rules without requiring every access to request MFA. Conditional access policies can be set per network, per device or per user context, reducing friction for trusted scenarios while maintaining strong authentication for higher-risk access paths.

Rublon is available through a free tier protecting one user account, a Business tier starting at 2 GBP per user per month (checked September 2026) with a minimum of 15 users and multi-year discounts, and an Enterprise tier at 4 GBP per user per month (checked September 2026) with a minimum of 300 users. All paid tiers include unlimited application integrations, SSO portal, advanced policies and mobile push notifications through the web console; free tier users access core MFA without advanced policy options. The platform is cloud-only with no on-premise licensing alternative. Rublon is based in Zielona Gora, Poland and offers email support during 08:00 to 17:00 CET with multilingual support in English, German and Polish. Phone support is available as an add-on for Enterprise tier customers. MSPs should confirm that Rublon's integration with their existing directory, VPN type and application stack covers their specific deployment needs before committing beyond the 30-day free trial.

Our take

Rublon stands out as an MFA solution with a genuinely free tier and straightforward per-user pricing visible upfront, which suits an MSP wanting to evaluate passwordless and conditional access options without a sales call. It works well with Microsoft environments and legacy systems using RADIUS or SAML. Check whether your MSP's specific VPN type, RDP setup or on-premise applications are supported through Rublon's documented integrations before relying on it for critical access paths. Compare against passwordless-first solutions like Microsoft Entra ID if your customer base is mostly Microsoft-aligned, or against Duo or BeyondTrust if you need broader third-party endpoint support.
