Sprint's Wireless Rate Plans for Business: What You Need to Know

It's safe to say that competition is the reason why service providers have joined in on the unlimited plan game. T-Mobile may have started it all, so it's not really surprising why Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint followed suit. What makes Sprint a standout, however, is its business-grade mobile plans designed for companies of all sizes. These plans allow easier purchasing of talk and text services, as well as mobile data for each employee.

Sprint Unlimited for Business Plan

Starting off with the Sprint Unlimited for Business plan or Unlimited Freedom for Business, users pay $55 per month for the first line, $40 per month for line 2, and $30 for lines 3 to 5. What this means is that five business users would only cost $185 per month, which is a much lower price compared to the previous rate of $60 per line, or $300 for five business users.

What the Unlimited for Business plan includes is unlimited high-speed data for any online activity you want -- music streaming, gaming, video streaming of up to 1080p -- Sprint can handle it all. This plan also gives each user an additional 10GB for mobile hotspot, P2P, and VPN access; and of course, the unlimited talk and text feature.

But wait, there's more.

Currently, Sprint has an ongoing promo that gives an even lower price for a team of five: $19 per month on each line! This still includes the additional 10 GB of hotspot data, unlimited streaming, and unlimited calls and texts.

$19 per month for each line means users only get to pay $95 for a team of five, plus taxes and fees. According to the Sprint website, the promo will last until Jan. 31, 2019; then the price will revert to its original, which is $55 per month for the first line, $40 per month for line 2, and $30 for lines 3 to 5.

Business Share Plus Plan

Along with the Unlimited for Business plan, Sprint has also launched the Business Share Plus, which allows businesses of all sizes to customize a mobile package that will distribute the amount of calls, texts, and data to each employee for a month at a fixed price.

The Business Share Plus plan includes mobile hotspot using shared data, unlimited calls and texts, and data that's shareable, albeit not unlimited. The plan was designed to make sure that employees have a fair amount of data. As of writing, Sprint's range of tiers offers 20 GB for 10 lines to 500 GB and up for an unlimited number of lines. This plan is also easy to change, so as your business grows, you can increase your data volume as well.

Sprint's Flexible Options

Part of Sprint's business cell phone plans involves users to select from an option of devices, whether it be smartphones or tablets. According to Sprint, the devices you purchase for your team can be leased depending on a contract you choose. There are individual plans, but there are also those that come with a contract term of two years, and devices that can be paid within two months through installments.

Although Sprint intends to offer unlimited data as it can, the company has to consider fair usage policies to all of its users, meaning it deprioritizes subscribers who have reached the data threshold, which is 23 GB per month, and if the network is congested.

Sprint Global Roaming

Sprint also offers roaming features, which you can add on in whatever plan you choose. The Global Roaming add-on gives users high-speed data passes in LTE to more than 50 countries including Mexico, Canada, and China. What you get in this feature are free texts and data and calls that only cost you 20¢ per minute in all destinations listed.

Why Choose Sprint for Business Plans

Businesses of all kinds in this age of technology use communication devices more than ever, and that means a company might need a bandwidth that can carry all activities within the network. It is also the age where everything is going mobile, and with these portable gadgets, it is easier for workers to connect and increase functionality within the office.

With Sprint, business users get to have the company's LTE Plus technology that offers the fastest speeds across the country. The Sprint website also mentions a 5G network, in which there will be huge IoT (Internet of Things) applications for business, as well as improved broadband applications, including virtual and augmented reality and 4K video streaming.

In a statement, Sprint executive Jan Geldmacher notes the overwhelming response of consumers to the company's unlimited plans, which paved the way to creating business plans to entice more people to switch to Sprint. The promos for its business plans are still ongoing but note that this could change anytime. Nonetheless, Sprint will notify users if promos are about to end or when the prices will roll over to its original rate. This will give users the option to continue, make adjustments, or avail of another existing promo that fits one's budget.

When you navigate through the Sprint website, users will find it easy to compare plans among different companies. Sprint has provided a graph that shows how much one pays for the same plan on different providers including Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T.

Currently, Sprint does offer the cheapest plans for teams, companies, and businesses. With the addition of the $19 per line on its Unlimited for Business plan, it'll cost teams of five less than $100 each month, if you don't count taxes.

Sprint's business plans for mobile users have given them recognition, which comes from third-party industry experts. Overall, the company had reported almost 400,000 new Sprint users during the first quarter when it first launched last year, which isn't bad for a not-so-preferred brand.
