Review of the Business Connect tariff for corporate clients from MTS

Description of the tariff plan

Conventionally, MTS tariffs are divided into 2 types:

• For individuals.
• For corporate clients.

Each type has subtypes in the form of tariff plans for communications and TP for the Internet. The “Business Connect” tariff is just right for clients who want to organize access to a high-speed connection within the company, not limited to a specific office.

• For your information
• Each client can customize the tariff by adjusting the options offered.

"Business Connect" does not include an Internet traffic package. If necessary, the client himself chooses how much traffic he needs per month. Of course, the subscriber has the right to access the network without connecting additional options, but then, in accordance with the federal tariff, a fee will be charged for each megabyte of traffic. As a result, visiting the Internet is very expensive.

MTS Corporate Business Connect must be used with a USB modem or Wi-Fi router. An MTS SIM card is inserted into one of these devices, acting as a link between the subscriber and the global web.

Internet services come to the fore in TP, but the offer allows you not only to connect to the network, but also to make calls and send messages.

• Attention
• It is enough to remove the SIM card from the modem or router and then install it in the smartphone.

As a result, the tariff plan can be recommended in the following cases:

• When a corporate client needs Internet access.
• You must have a stable connection.
• You don’t want to limit network access to your office or apartment space.

The potential client himself will decide whether to connect Business Connect. But in no case can we ignore the advantages and disadvantages of the tariff.
