Can a Trello bord be used by several consultants + only 1 client (as guest)?

And is it possible to use 1 owner per bord: so 1 person is responsible?

Hi @Marianne Peeters welcome to the Atlassian Community!

On which Trello plan are you?

For free Workspaces (those that haven't upgraded to Standard or Premium), all Workspace members are equal, which means that everybody can invite other members to join the Workspace, edit the Workspace profile, and change some settings of this collaboration space you all share.

Being a free Workspace admin doesn't give admin control over the boards within it—to make changes to other users' boards in your Workspace, you'll need to be invited as a board admin manually. Instead, the main benefit for Workspaces at that level is to keep everything in one place in the app— workspace-visible boards can all be seen on one page, which is helpful for new members.

For Standard and Premium Workspaces, their admins do have admin control over any board in the Workspace itself, without needing to be invited by the board's admin.

Thank´s Dave. At the moment we have a free account.

Yes, absolutely – we’ve helped many teams set this up successfully.

Using a Trello board with multiple consultants is totally doable, and you can easily invite just one client as a Guest. Trello's guest feature is ideal when you want clients to see project progress without giving them full access to your entire workspace.

As for ownership, each board can have one main person in charge usually the person who created it or someone assigned as the admin. They can manage permissions, organize the workflow, and keep everything running smoothly.

At "expertconsultants." we've helped agencies and consulting teams create this kind of setup to keep collaboration efficient and communication with clients clean and professional.
