      Subscribers vs. Contributors

      Users from paying companies are considered Subscribers while users from non-paying companies are considered Contributors.

      There are two types of users in ProjectTeam.com:

      Subscribers

      Subscribers have full access to all features available in ProjectTeam.com including creating new projects, customizing forms, configuring reports, and more. Subscribers also have priority access to technical support resources provided by ProjectTeam. 

      Contributors

      Contributors have limited access to features in ProjectTeam.com. They have been invited to join projects created by Subscribers and have access to contribute information to projects. Contributors can create new form records, upload files, respond to workflows, and more. 

      Contributor users will see a helpful "Contributor Access" banner on their main menu signifying their permissions and linking them to pages to learn more about the benefits of ProjectTeam.com for their use. Contributors can upgrade their accounts at any time and immediately gain access to additional Subscriber-restricted features.
