Which plan to pickPro on yearly billing is the sweet spot: $10 a seat removes the storage cap and turns on integrations. Only step up to Business if you need video recordings or want to see team talk-time and coaching stats. Monthly billing costs nearly twice as much, so commit for a year once you know you'll use it.Pro on the yearly plan is the only one that makes sense for an individual; the monthly price is steep. Free is really a taster for the meeting notes, not the inbox. Team is only worth it when several people handle the same clients.Beginner is fine until you hit the five-project wall. Pro on the yearly plan is the obvious move after that. Business is for teams who want a shared space; it is not a substitute for a real project tool.
