What are you here to fix?
Where Connecteam falls short.
Three plans dressed as three hubs.
Connecteam splits the product into three priced hubs: Operations, Communications, and HR & Skills. Each is effectively a separate plan. Pick one and you get a partial product.
Pricing tiers that punish growth.
Each hub's flat price covers your first 30 users. Go past 30 and you pay per seat, per hub, on top. Three hubs means three lots of per-seat costs as your headcount grows.
Engagement is one hub of three.
On Connecteam, comms and engagement are a single hub you buy alongside two others. On Blink, daily engagement is the whole product, and it's what makes a frontline rollout stick. Blink hit 99% activation across 138 accounts with Bubala.

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.

Yes. At Bubala, Blink. hit 99% activation and 14 daily app opens per user. That's the metric that decides whether anything else in a frontline tool gets read. Engagement is the whole point.
Yes. Most customers run Blink. in parallel during the 14-day trial, then switch fully. Our onboarding team handles data migration, user import, and integration setup. Hands-on launch is included on Pro, no upcharge.
Those are Connecteam's strongest lanes, and we don't pretend otherwise. Blink. covers a different part of the operations stack: comms, engagement, knowledge, HR ops, onboarding, forms, and recognition — all in one plan. Many customers keep their dedicated scheduling or workforce-management tool and add Blink. as the layer that pulls everything together. Blink. integrates with the workforce tools you already use.
Most customers go live in under a week. In its pilot phase, Blink. reached 20,000 JD Group employees with 74% adoption in 10 days.
