Where Connecteam falls short.
What Blink covers
Ops, Comms, and HR. One platform, one plan.
Two products. Two strategies.
Connecteam starts with scheduling. Blink. starts with comms.

Two products. Two very different audiences.
One Blink plan at £495. Three Connecteam hubs at ~£1,390. Same team, same job, at 11 users.
Where Blink wins.
Five reasons Blink delivers ops, comms, and HR in one plan, better and cheaper than bundling three Connecteam hubs.
One platform. One plan. One price.
Blink ships ops, comms, and HR in one plan. No hub-by-hub upsell. Connecteam charges per hub. Like-for-like at 11 users: Blink. Pro £495 a year vs Connecteam Advanced ~£1,390.
Comms is the product, not one of three hubs.
Connecteam sells Communications as one of three priced hubs. Comms is bolted onto an ops tool. Blink is comms-native: news feed, chat, Stories, polls, and recognition, all first-party in one plan.
Mobile that frontline teams open daily.
Blink. ships the same features on mobile and desktop the same week. We optimize for the phone, because that is where the frontline lives. Same features on mobile and desktop, the same week. We build for the phone, because that's where the frontline works.
Engagement is the whole point.
Open rates decide whether anything in a frontline app gets read. Engagement is the whole point. Without it, nothing else compounds. At Bubala, that looks like 99% activation and 14 app opens per user, every day.
Keep the scheduling tool. Add the comms + HR layer.
Connecteam is strongest on shift scheduling, GPS, time tracking, and kiosk. Many teams already have a workforce-management tool that does the job, and replacing it is not the goal. Blink. integrates with the scheduling tools you already use, plus Workday, ADP, iTrent, Okta, Microsoft 365, and more. We sit at the comms, engagement, knowledge, and HR ops layer all in one plan.
Frequently asked questions
Blink. starts at £2.95/user/mo (Core) and £3.75/user/mo (Pro), billed annually. Both plans include ops, comms, and HR — one platform, no hub bundling. Connecteam splits the product into three priced hubs (each hub is effectively a separate plan): Operations, Communications, and HR & Skills, at $99/mo per hub on the Expert tier. To match Blink.'s coverage you'd bundle all three: $99 × 3 × 12 = $3,564 a year at 11 users (around £2,800 at FX £0.79, May 2026). Source: connecteam.com/pricing.
