Sprint removes contract burden for business customers

Sprint Nextel Corp. (S) is launching a new set of wireless plans for business customers. Business Freedom Plans won’t require any contract and customers will have the option to pool together voice and data plans to cut costs.
When the new plans launch July 24, business customers will be able to adjust usage as their needs change, particularly for seasonal demand and various short-term needs. The plans will also be available across Sprint’s portfolio of devices.
“Up to now, many businesses subscribed to consumer prepaid services as a way to avoid long-term contracts,” said Paget Alves, president at Sprint Business. “But to achieve prepaid’s contract terms, a business had to sacrifice a broader device selection and business-grade customer care. Business Freedom gives today’s businesses the best combination of the things they want most from a wireless provider: the right plan with the right terms – with the availability of business-grade devices and service included.
Business Freedom is targeted to enterprise, small- and medium-sized business and companies operating in the public sector.
