Why should I upgrade my account?

While free accounts get you started with 2 users and 5 pages, paid accounts include 3-100 users and 100-7,500 pages.

With more users, you can get your entire team involved. And with more pages at your disposal, you'll always have the room you need to keep everything organized. Plus you can use tags to keep your pages better organized.

Upgraded accounts also get access to the popular Backpack group calendar. It's simple, web-based, sharable, and it can remind you of your events via email or an SMS/text to your cell phone.

Some paid plans also include message boards and SSL security.

Learn more about why you should upgrade or compare the different plans by viewing the "Pricing & sign up" page.
