If I only have two seats does this mean I can only share my projects with two people or does this mean those two people/Sears are the only ones that can create projects?
Confused on how many seats should be purchased… we have a team of over 50 people but only the CEO, CIO, or COO will be creating projects. Other team members have tasks to complete but does not need full capability.
Do I need to purchase a seat for all members of the organization or can I purchase a seat for the individuals creating projects but share with members to update tasks?
Please assist. We are a new non profit organization and I would love to use Asana for project management.
You may be able to get by with just the two seats and use Asana as you indicate you want to.
I’d probably recommend you use your nonprofit domain name email to start an Asana “Organization” (not a “Workspace” which is not based on your domain name).
You will benefit from paying for either Asana Premium or Asana Business (vs the free Asana Basic).
If Premium or Business, seats come into play. Anyone who logs into Asana using an email with your domain name becomes a “Member” and occupies a seat that you’ll have to pay for. The minimum is two. If you prevent all others from logging in that way, and instead they log in with other email addresses (e. g., gmail.com, or anything other than your domain), they become “Guests” and will not occupy seats. To learn what Members can do that Guests cannot, see https://asana.com/guide/help/organizations/basics#gl-people . If you can afford seats for all your people, then they could all log in with their nonprofit domain email addresses.
See more in the Asana Guide or below, though recognize there are many other types of ways to set up Asana that these sources describe beyond what I explained above, so you’ll want to focus on just the parts that apply to your case.
Hi there,
What if all members have different domains? (personal emails not linked to the company)
We just upgraded to business.
We are paying for 10 seats (apparently using 6.)
1 member is no longer with the company but I’m afraid to remove him because we need to see his work history, including all completed tasks he was part of, comments, etc.
1 member is not an employee at all, but the property manager of a building project our company is working on. She only needs access to the few projects within that development portfolio. (Then she’ll never need it again.)
We currently have a total of 4 actual employees.
How do we avoid wasting money for people that aren’t part of our organization?
This will become a much larger issue as our company grows and more people come and go. (Will we just continue paying for all former employees?)
Hello Martienne,
We have a much smaller team than your organization, but the same question as to the number of seats to purchase in Asana. What did you ultimately decide?
Thanks!

I am planning to purchase the advanced subscription and I have 15 people including myself. How many seats do I need? Is the advance plan contain workflow management?
I’d happily pay for a seat. I don’t need 2 seats.
