The Talk2M Free+ enables only one user to connect to one Ewon modem. If another user wants to connect to the same modem, the first user has to disconnect first. Of course you can create multiple Talk2M accounts and assign one Ewon modem to each of them. One user will then be able to connect to one Ewon on one of the Talk2M accounts, while another user will be able to connect to another Ewon on a different Talk2M account. However, these two users will never be able to connect to the same Ewon modem at the same time.

Most companies find the free Talk2M Free+ version sufficient, as they have a couple of technicians who know which of them is currently logged in to the Talk2M. Nevertheless, there are also companies that have different requirements. Here is an example:
