Who it's for
Deskless and shift workers: retail floor staff, warehouse and logistics teams, manufacturing, healthcare frontline, and field crews. It gives them communication and light productivity without paying for full desktop apps they will not use.
When to move up
Move a frontline worker to a Business or Enterprise plan when they start needing the installed desktop apps, a larger mailbox, or full productivity tools. Keep genuine deskless staff on F1 or F3 to control cost.
