Your organization has users with different collaboration needs. Some need advanced communication functionalities, while others, like field or frontline workers, would mainly just require basic communication functionalities.
With the Flexible Subscription (Flexi Plan), you can assign different Zoho Cliq plans to different users instead of buying the same edition for everyone. This lets you mix Standard, Professional, and Enterprise licenses in one organization, so each person gets the features they need while keeping licensing costs lower.

Note:
Only the users with Professional and Enterprise plans can be assigned admin roles.
You can use a flexible subscription only if you buy at least 25 Enterprise licenses.
Only actions performed by Enterprise users are audited. Actions performed by non-Enterprise users are not audited.
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) does not scan data for non-Enterprise users.
Standard and Free users are assigned to the Standard and Free roles, respectively. Admins cannot modify or restrict permissions for these roles.
