Security & passwords software for trades and contractors
Crews share phones, laptops and logins on the move, so accounts and devices need central control. Google Workspace covers business email, files and device management from $7 per person, with free single sign-on. Storage is capped on Starter and every user is a seat; Bitwarden, from $4 per person, is the cheapest password manager here.
