Etisalat launches multi-platform data plan

Starting today, Etisalat will offer its business mobile post-paid customers the opportunity to share a single data plan across multiple devices including smartphones, tablets and laptops.

The Business Multi Share service allows customers to connect up to five simultaneous SIMs under one data plan without needing to subscribe to additional data packs.

With this, business owners can use Etisalat’s single data pack across devices.

Business Multi Share data packs start from AED 60 for a 1GB data allowance per month.

In addition, customers have the option of buying smartphones or tablets with zero upfront charges with Etisalat’s business post-paid plans.

“Staying well connected is paramount with the rising demands of our highly urban fast-paced lives,” Salvador Anglada, Chief Business Officer, Etisalat, said. “This is more so in a business environment, where users need to work across multiple devices in the office, on the move or at home. On an average, a customer today uses three devices to connect to the Internet, the smartphone being the most preferred one; and this trend is only going to grow.”

Existing customers subscribed to Etisalat’s Business Ultimate or Business Supreme services can register for the Business Multi Share data pack by sending an SMS – MULTI – to 1040.

New customers can subscribe to Business Ultimate or Business Supreme post-paid plans and choose from one of the new Business Multi Share data packs starting from AED 60 for 1GB and up to AED 219 for 12GB data allowances per month.

“The new Business Multi Share service is part of our commitment to help customers grow their businesses,” John Lincoln, Senior Vice President, Small and Medium Businesses, Etisalat, said. “We have developed these data packs in response to the inherent needs of knowledge workers. Effective multitasking, collaboration and productivity are key for today’s busy business executives. Our cost effective, powerful proposition lets SMBs minimise budget spends by allowing staff members to share data from a single plan. It also empowers their workforce; for example, sales teams who need to be seamlessly connected at all times.”
