Bottom line
Enterprise employee app, intranet, email, and SMS for desk and frontline workers. Staffbase says there is no generic price list because no two workforces look alike.
Stands out for: The vendor sells dedicated frontline pricing so you are not forced to pay full desk-worker licenses for shop-floor employees, and it claims 75-plus languages plus 16 million employees connected.
Watch out for: staffbase.com/pricing is Get a quote. Typical go-live is quoted around 90 days, so this is a communications program, not a Slack install.
Overview
Staffbase is an employee experience platform: branded mobile app, intranet, email, SMS, digital signage, and Microsoft 365 integrations. The 2026 pitch is AI-native, with personalized podcasts and a conversational assistant. Content can be targeted in 75-plus languages. Named customers include Adidas, Alaska Airlines, DHL, MAN Truck & Bus, and Whataburger. The vendor cites 2,000 customers and 16 million employees.
Pricing is shaped to the workforce. Frontline-specific pricing is called out so non-desk workers are not billed like knowledge workers. The pricing page is a quote flow (most teams talk within 48 hours). No dollar amounts print. Capterra is 4.7 from 80 reviews. This is enterprise employee comms, not a recognition catalog.
Who it's for
Best for
- Enterprises with mixed desk and frontline populations (retail, logistics, manufacturing)
- Internal comms teams that need app, intranet, email, SMS, and digital signage in one vendor
- Global employers that need 75-plus language targeting
- HR and IT partners already on Microsoft 365 who want that as a front door
Not ideal for
- Startups that only needed Slack
- Buyers who need a printed per-user price before a 48-hour sales call
Key features
Employee app. A branded mobile home for news and resources.
Multichannel comms. Same message to app, email, and screens.

Pricing
Staffbase does not publish a generic price list. Quotes are tailored to desk versus frontline populations, channels (app, intranet, email, SMS, signage), and configuration. Frontline-specific pricing is offered so non-desk workers are not billed like office licenses. Typical branded go-live is described as about 90 days. Confirm current terms on the vendor site.
