I work for multinational AEC engineering firm and would like to introduce Vercel to the company as a hosting solution for internal tools and potentially some apps for the external clients.
I just wonder if anyone out there is doing something similar and it wld be great if you could share some experiences!
The company is so all in Azure for everything and don’t think that would ever change, but I just wanna be able to use Vercel for small part of the business to showcase the benefits…
Also, would pro plan with one seat be sufficient if I’m the only dev? I’m not too sure how the seat counts for preview functions (e.g. do I need enterprise plan if I want to be able to control who has access to preview etc? )
Hey @tzero! A pro plan should be plenty for a single dev. The included resources are typically more than enough for a few small projects with limited traffic. That leaves room to grow if you want to deploy more projects or add more team members in the future.
Deployment Protection is included for everyone, though some options are only available to Enterprise teams or as an optional add-on for Pro teams. You could leave the default Vercel Authentication setting enabled to block public access to your preview deployments and older production deployments. It allows only your team members to access the deployments, but there’s a way to bypass it.
You can selectively allow access with Sharable Links. That’s the most common no-additional-cost option that I’ve seen others use. Some people also choose to implement their own password protection and disable Vercel’s deployment protection options.
In case it helps with your project, or with convincing your team, we have some info written to help with incremental migration to Vercel.
