Free accounts have a lower storage limit than professional accounts, and both account types gain storage based on the number of collaborators.

Free (personal) account

When you sign up for mudstack you are automatically granted a free, i.e. personal account. This account is on our Starter plan. Every collaborator on the account adds 10GB of storage to the account. Free accounts have a few limitations:

• Up to 5 collaborators
• 10GB storage per collaborator (up to 50 GB total storage)
• No viewer members
