Choosing the right Basementgrid plan depends on your estate's operational scale, required administrative seats, and advanced workflow needs.

Both plans include our core features—unlimited locations, assets, vendors, requesters, and permanent work order history—ensuring your building's history is always safe.

When to Use the Free Plan

The Free Plan is designed for small sites testing out the platform or managing light, everyday maintenance tracking.

  • Ideal for: Small single-unit properties, shopfronts, or sites under 10,000 sq ft with 1 Admin.

  • Key Enforcement Rules: Work order history is limited to 90 days, and reporting is restricted to current and previous month history logs. Asset creation freezes if you exceed 10 assets/locations.

When to Choose the Basic Plan

The Basic Plan is tailored for mid-sized residential or commercial properties needing permanent history and full reporting.

  • Ideal for: Estates up to 50 units or 50,000 sq ft managed by up to 2 Admins.

  • Key Upgrades: Unlocks permanent work order access, full advanced reporting (Ledger, Vendor, Compliance), higher file attachment limits (50 MB), and up to 50 assets.

  • Key Enforcement Rules: Exceeding 2 Admins automatically demotes additional users to Collaborators. Form creation freezes if you go above 3 templates.

When to Upgrade to the Pro Plan

The Pro Plan is built for larger MCSTs, industrial complexes, and management teams requiring maximum feature flexibility and high asset volumes.

  • Ideal for: Multi-building complexes or developments up to 200 units / 200,000 sq ft requiring up to 5 Admin seats.
