Smartsheet pricing explained

A workable free plan for one builder, two paid steps with seat rules, and an Enterprise tier priced on request.

Smartsheet keeps its plan ladder short, but the seat rules are where teams get caught. The free plan covers a single builder plus a couple of free editors; Pro at $9 opens the tool to a small team but caps it at ten users; Business at $32 removes the automation limits and adds advanced reporting, with a three seat minimum; and Enterprise is quote based for governed deployments. Below are all plans as of June 2026, then a plain look at what moves the cost.

What moves the real bill

What actually moves your bill

The per seat price is only half the Smartsheet story. The seat rules around each plan decide as much as the headline rate, and the jump from Pro to Business is the one to plan for.

Free, Pro or Business. The free plan suits one builder testing the tool; Pro at $9 opens it to a small team of up to ten with unlimited sheets and dashboards; Business at $32 adds unlimited automation and advanced reporting. The step from Pro to Business is the big one on price.
The Business three seat minimum. Business is billed for at least three users, so the floor is about $96 a month even for a pair. Weigh that against staying on Pro if your team is small and does not yet need the heavier automation and reporting.
The ten user Pro cap. Pro is capped at ten users, so a growing team is pushed up to Business once it passes that line, for headcount as much as features. Plan for that step if you expect to scale past ten seats.
Annual versus monthly billing. The rates shown are annual. Monthly billing runs higher, so teams that intend to keep Smartsheet usually take the annual commitment to hold the lower per seat price.
Pricing questions

Smartsheet pricing FAQ

Is Smartsheet free?

Smartsheet has a free plan for a single builder plus up to two free editors, with two sheets and the core grid, Gantt, card and calendar views. It is enough to trial the tool, but the sheet and collaboration limits move most teams to Pro as they grow.

How much is Smartsheet per user?

As of June 2026, Pro is $9 per user per month billed annually and Business is $32 per user per month billed annually. Monthly billing is higher, and Business has a three user minimum. Check the vendor for current pricing.

What is the difference between Pro and Business?

Pro covers up to ten users with unlimited sheets, reports and dashboards and 250 automations a month. Business removes the automation cap, adds advanced reporting, integrations and a document builder, and is built for larger teams that have outgrown Pro.

Does Smartsheet charge for viewers?

Smartsheet bills by licensed user, and people who only view or comment generally do not need a paid license, while editors do. Exact seat rules vary by plan, so confirm how editors and viewers are counted with the vendor before you commit.
