Confused what package I should be on - help!

Question

Hey Trello experts!

So I'm a digital agency owner and I use Trello both for internal and client comms.

I'm always confused about the settings / privacy of the Trello boards and in turn if I should be on the free package or the Business package.

Here is how I mainly use Trello

* New Team member onboarding (one board)
* My Sales call pipeline and tracking (one board)
* My VA tasks (one board)
* Client onboarding and management (about 10-15 at a time)

Firstly for the client onboarding boards, should they all be trello workspaces so I don't have to pay for people to be members? I had them in my team previously but when inviting clients I was paying for them to use it - which I need to avoid.

Is this the best set up? To only lock down the internal boards to my team and have everything else as a Trello workspace?

I just went to create a new board and told I'm at 8 of my 10 free boards...just confused!

@Jackie Muscat Regardless of plan, intra board privacy and assess controls is minimal. You can manage comments and  add members at board levels. You can make a board invisible to other team members. So when a client is a member on a board, he/she will be able to see information of other clients. Having worked as developer on Trello, decision on plans - because that determines Butler quota, attachment size etc, tends to be technical. Gold entitlement only benefit the account user only, while business entitlement benefits paid team members. Business has a feature called single board guest.
