Explore how concurrent user caps create artificial login bottlenecks across multi-shift factory operations and distributed warehouse facilities.

Concurrent user licensing caps the total number of simultaneous logins. In multi-shift factories, when Shift 1 workers do not log out before Shift 2 begins, the 51st user is locked out, delaying production entries and truck dispatches. Transparent unit-based pricing eliminates these login roadblocks.
During the critical 30-minute handover between morning and evening shifts, machine operators, supervisors, and quality auditors all attempt to access terminals simultaneously. If the concurrent cap is reached, incoming supervisors are locked out, delaying handover meetings and production runs.
Named user models require a dedicated paid license for every individual employee, even part-time packers. Concurrent models permit floating licenses but introduce login queues. Both models create artificial administrative friction for industrial operations.
Plants run best when every team member who handles materials can record receipts and progress directly into the system. Removing per-seat anxiety creates clean, complete operational data.
Werkora equips every shop-floor supervisor, line operator, storekeeper, and accountant with their own dedicated login with plans sized for your operation.
Additional users receive an error message blocking login until an active user explicitly logs out or is disconnected by an administrator.
Werkora includes 10 named user accounts per plant unit (e.g., 30 users on a 3-unit base plan), with straightforward options to add capacity as operations grow.
