What's the difference between Pro and BeamDisk for Business?
Only how they're bought. Pro is an in-app purchase on an Apple Account. BeamDisk for Business is a separate app that organizations buy in volume through Apple Business Manager, since Apple doesn't sell in-app purchases that way. Both unlock the same features.
