All plans are agent-free

Need Help Choosing?
Start with Professional if you are evaluating the full product.
That is the feature set you get during the 15-day trial. If the full workbench is more than you need, Basic gives you the core desktop workflow at a lower price. If your environment cannot rely on the public internet, Airtight is the right fit.
