Trello Pricing 2025: Plans, Costs & Hidden Limits Explained

Looking for Trello’s actual pricing? Free for 10 boards, then $5-17.50 per user per month. But there’s more to it than that.

Here’s everything you need to know about Trello pricing in 2025, including the limits they don’t make obvious.

Quick Pricing Overview

PlanMonthly PriceAnnual PriceKey Limit
Free$0$010 boards per Workspace
Standard$6/user$5/user1,000 Workspace command runs
Premium$12.50/user$10/userUnlimited command runs
EnterpriseContact sales$17.50/user50 user minimum

All prices are per user per month. Annual billing saves you 17-20%.

Trello Free: Actually Pretty Generous

Price: $0
Best for: Personal use, small teams testing the waters

Here’s what you actually get:

  • Up to 10 boards per Workspace
  • Unlimited personal boards
  • Unlimited cards and lists
  • Up to 10 team members
  • 10MB file attachments
  • Unlimited activity log
  • 2-factor authentication
  • Basic automation (Butler) - 50 command runs/month

The 10-board limit is per Workspace, not per account. Create multiple Workspaces if needed, though that gets messy fast.

Trello Standard: The Small Team Sweet Spot

Price: $5/user/month (annual) or $6/user/month (monthly)
Best for: Small teams who’ve outgrown Free

What’s new:

  • Unlimited boards
  • 250MB file attachments
  • Unlimited Power-Ups per board (huge deal)
  • 1,000 Workspace command runs per month
  • Saved searches
  • Custom fields
  • Board templates
  • Admin and security features
  • Priority email support

The unlimited Power-Ups alone make this worth it. On Free, you get 1 Power-Up per board. Standard removes that annoying limitation.

Trello Premium: For Growing Teams

Price: $10/user/month (annual) or $12.50/user/month (monthly)
Best for: Teams that live in Trello

The upgrades:

  • Unlimited automation (Butler command runs)
  • Multiple views: Timeline, Calendar, Dashboard, Map, Table
  • Unlimited Workspace command runs
  • Board collections for organization
  • Workspace-level templates
  • Public board management
  • Priority support
  • Better admin controls

The unlimited automation is the big win here. If you’re constantly hitting Butler limits on Standard, Premium pays for itself.

Trello Enterprise: Big Company Features

Price: $17.50/user/month (annual only)
Minimum: 50 users (that’s $10,500/year minimum!)
Best for: Companies needing serious admin control

Enterprise exclusives:

  • Organization-wide permissions
  • Public board administration
  • Attachment permissions
  • Power-Up administration
  • Unlimited Workspaces
  • SAML SSO (Okta, OneLogin, etc.)
  • User provisioning (SCIM)
  • Guaranteed 99.99% uptime
  • 24/7 phone support

The 50-user minimum is non-negotiable. If you have 35 users, you’re still paying for 50.

The Perfect Companion: Trello + UserJot

Here’s what lots of teams do: Use Trello for project management, UserJot for collecting user feedback. UserJot is a feedback, roadmap, and changelog platform that helps you collect customer ideas, show what you’re building, and announce updates.

UserJot Dashboard

Why this combination works:

  1. Customer submits feedback in UserJot
  2. Important feedback becomes a Trello card
  3. Team plans the feature in Trello
  4. Ship update, notify users through UserJot

Together, you’ve got a complete product workflow. UserJot handles the messy part (collecting and organizing feedback), Trello handles the execution. Your customers feel heard, your team stays organized.

Stop guessing what to build. Let your users vote.

Stick with Free if:

  • You’re just testing Trello

Upgrade to Standard when:

  • You hit the 10-board limit

  • You need boards for each project

Consider Premium if:

  • You’re hitting automation limits
  • You need Timeline or Dashboard views

  • You’re managing 20+ active boards

Enterprise makes sense when:

  • You have 50+ users (obviously)
  • You need SSO for security
  • Compliance requires admin controls
  • You need guaranteed uptime

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Trello really free forever?

Yes. The free plan isn’t a trial. You can use it forever with up to 10 boards.

Can I pay monthly?

Yes, but you’ll pay 17-20% more than annual billing.

Do guests count toward billing?

Single-board guests are free. Multi-board guests need paid seats.

Can I mix plan types?

No. Everyone in a Workspace must be on the same plan.

What happens if I downgrade?

You keep your boards but lose premium features. Boards over the limit become read-only.

Is there a Trello student discount?

Not directly, but schools can get 50% off through Atlassian’s education program.

Can I collect user feedback in Trello?

Not really built for it. Most teams use dedicated tools like UserJot or Canny for feedback collection, then create Trello cards for the features they’ll build.

The Bottom Line

Trello’s pricing is refreshingly straightforward. Most small teams do fine on Standard ($5/user/month). The jump to Premium ($10/user/month) only makes sense if you’re heavy on automation or need those extra views.

Enterprise at $17.50/user/month with a 50-user minimum? That’s a $10,500 commitment. Make sure you actually need those enterprise features.

For a complete product management setup, consider pairing Trello with a feedback collection tool. Trello handles the building, something like UserJot handles the listening. Together, they’re less than most all-in-one solutions.
