Security & passwords software for service businesses
A small service firm's first security step is company accounts it controls: email, files and sign-in in one place. Google Workspace covers that from $7/person, about $42/mo for 6 people, with single sign-on for free. Starter plans have storage caps; for passwords on their own, Bitwarden is open source and costs $4/person.
