- Centralized Management: Enables easy creation and centralized management of resources and automatic workflows without the need to provision physical infrastructure.
- Bring-Your-Own-Device Support: Compatible with existing web browsers on users' personal devices, facilitating secure access without additional client software or VPNs.
- Cost-Effective Pricing: Offers a flat fee starting at $7 per month per user, with up to 200 streaming hours included, and charges for additional usage beyond this limit.
