Do I need a group plan?

Q: Do I need a group plan?

You need a group plan if you want to connect more than 4 accounts on the same domain, if you want to manage CalendarBridge syncing or scheduling links on behalf of other users via the organization admin portal, or if you want fine-grained control over which domains your users can sync with and what information they can sync.

You will need a group plan in three situations — connecting many accounts on one domain, managing CalendarBridge for other users, or enforcing domain-level sync policies.

1. More than 4 accounts on the same domain

The basic, premium, and pro plans are limited to 4 connected calendar accounts from any single domain. There is no limit on the total number of connected accounts, but there can only be 4 connected accounts for any particular domain. So if you are a small business with 4 users that wants to make do with a single premium or pro account, you can do that. If you have 5 or more users, however, you will need a group account.

2. Managing CalendarBridge on behalf of other users

On the Basic, Premium, or Pro plans, all account management is through the standard end-user interfaces shown in the getting started guide. With a group plan, you get access to an organization admin portal where a user who has administrator privileges on one or more servers/tenants can:

provision CalendarBridge licenses to users on their servers/tenants,
connect end users’ accounts to CalendarBridge,
create syncs on behalf of end users (requires administrator privileges on both servers/tenants),
create scheduling links on behalf of end users.

3. Fine-grained control over sync connections

The admin portal that comes with a group plan allows server/tenant administrators to set policies on which domains your users are allowed to sync with and what information they are allowed to sync.
