Notion Pricing in 2026 for growing Teams: Business vs Enterprise Plan Breakdown

If you're running a team of 50+ people and evaluating Notion, this guide is for you.

This isn't about personal productivity or small teams dabbling with Notion on the side. This is about companies with 50 to 500+ employees who need a workspace that scales, supports collaboration across departments, and doesn't break when things get complex.

Let me be direct: If you're serious about scaling Notion across your company, you're choosing between Business and Enterprise. The Plus plan exists, and I'll explain why it doesn't make sense for growing teams. But the real decision is whether you need the advanced security, compliance, and governance features that come with Enterprise—or if Business will get you where you need to go.

Below is a full comparison of the Plus, Business, and Enterprise plans. Use this table to see the key differences at a glance.

Plan Comparison: Plus, Business, and Enterprise

Why Plus Doesn't Make Sense for Scaling Teams

Notion's Plus plan is designed for small teams and professionals-we're talking 20 to 50 people max.

Yes, technically you can use Plus with a larger team. But here's the problem: Plus doesn't have the permissions and collaboration features that matter when you start scaling.

No private teamspaces. No advanced teamspace permissions. No granular database permissions.

What does that mean in practice? It means your HR team can't have a private space to plan compensation discussions. Your finance team can't lock down budget planning. Your leadership team can't work on acquisition plans without the entire workspace seeing it.

Everything is open by default, and you can't tighten that up.

If you're a 15-person startup where everyone sees everything and that's fine, Plus works. But if you're 50+ people with departments, sensitive work, and cross-functional collaboration, you'll hit the ceiling fast.

The smart move? Skip Plus and go straight to Business or Enterprise.

What You Get

The Business plan is where Notion starts to make sense for real team collaboration.

Private teamspaces

This is the big one. Private teamspaces let you create spaces that only specific people can access. HR can plan compensation. Finance can build budgets. Leadership can work on strategy-all without the entire company seeing it.

Private teamspaces are the foundation of how you structure work when you're beyond the "everyone sees everything" stage.

Advanced teamspace permissions

You can control who can create pages, who can edit, and who can only view within a teamspace. This matters when you're managing dozens of people across multiple departments.

Granular database permissions (page-level access control)

This is where Notion's Business plan starts to feel like a real enterprise tool.

Here's the problem most teams face: You have a shared database—let's say a Tasks database, a Deals pipeline, or a Knowledge Base—and you want to give your team access to it. But you don't want everyone to see everything inside it.

Granular database permissions let you control access to individual pages (rows) within a shared database based on who's assigned to them.

Here's how it works: You add someone to a Person property in a database page (like "Assignee," "Owner," or "Created By"), and Notion automatically gives them access to that specific page—not the entire database. They won't see the other pages unless they're explicitly added to those pages too.

Real-world use cases:

• Sales pipeline: Your sales team shares a Deals database. Each rep only sees the deals they own—they can't view or edit their teammates' deals. Sales leadership has full database access to see the entire pipeline.
• Client projects: Your agency has a Projects database. Each client is added as a "Client Contact" on their project page, giving them view-only access to their project status and deliverables—without seeing other clients' projects.
• HR requests: Your People Ops team manages an Employee Requests database (PTO, benefits questions, IT tickets). Each employee only sees the requests they submitted. HR admins see everything.
• Engineering tasks: Your product team tracks work in a Tasks database. Engineers only see tasks where they're the assignee. Product managers see all tasks across the team.

Why this matters for security and compliance:

Without granular permissions, you have two bad options:

1. Create separate databases for each team or person (chaos, no single source of truth)
2. Give everyone access to everything (data leakage, compliance risk)

Granular permissions solve this. You get one shared database with selective visibility—which means:

• Least-privilege access: People only see what they need to see
• Audit-ready workflows: You can track who has access to sensitive data
• Cross-functional collaboration without exposure: Finance can manage budgets, leadership can review approvals, and team members can submit requests—all in the same database, with different access levels

Full Notion AI (including agents)

Business plan includes full Notion AI capabilities, including custom agents. Plus plan only gets a trial of core Notion AI features-Business gets the whole suite.

Forms with conditional logic

You can build forms that adapt based on user input. This is useful for intake forms, feedback collection, or any workflow where you need dynamic forms.

SAML SSO

Single sign-on integration with your identity provider. This is a must-have for most companies with centralized IT management.

90-day page history

You get 90 days of version history, compared to 30 days on Plus. This gives you more time to restore content or see who changed what.

250 guest limit

You can invite up to 250 guests (external collaborators who don't need full workspace access). This is useful for agencies, contractors, or clients who need limited access to specific projects.

What You Don't Get

Business plan is powerful, but it's missing the enterprise-grade security and governance features that larger, regulated, or security-focused companies need.

No SCIM (automated user provisioning). No audit log. No advanced security settings. No organization console to manage multiple workspaces. No zero data retention for AI.

For most teams in the 50-100 person range, these features aren't deal-breakers. But if you're in a regulated industry, managing sensitive data, or planning to scale beyond 100 people, you'll start to feel the gaps.

Who Should Choose Business?

You're a good fit for Business if:

• You're a growing company (50-100 people) without complex security or compliance requirements
• You need private teamspaces and advanced permissions, but you don't need audit logs or SCIM provisioning
• You're not operating in a heavily regulated industry (finance, healthcare, legal)
• You don't need to manage multiple workspaces under a single contract or governance structure
• You want full Notion AI capabilities without needing enterprise-level data controls

In our client work at NotionFlows, we've seen plenty of 50-100 person teams thrive on the Business plan. The permissions are strong enough to support departmental workflows, and the price point makes sense when you're not yet dealing with enterprise compliance requirements.

Enterprise Plan: Built for Scale, Security, and Governance

Best for: Companies with 100+ employees, fast-growing teams, and organizations with security, compliance, or governance requirements.

What You Get

Enterprise is where Notion becomes a truly governed, auditable, enterprise-grade platform.

Everything from the Business plan, plus:

Security & Compliance

SCIM (automated user provisioning)

SCIM lets you automate user lifecycle management. When someone joins your company, they're automatically provisioned in Notion. When they leave, they're automatically deprovisioned. This is critical for security and compliance in larger organizations.

Audit log

A full audit trail of who did what and when. This is essential for tracking data access, identifying unauthorized activity, and meeting compliance requirements. If a former employee exports sensitive data before leaving, you'll see it in the audit log.

Advanced security settings

Admins can centrally control:

• Page duplication
• External sharing
• Web publishing
• Exporting

This means you can lock down data exfiltration risks and enforce security policies across the entire workspace.

Zero data retention for AI

When you use Notion AI on the Enterprise plan, the LLM provider does not retain your data. This is critical for companies handling sensitive or regulated data.

DLP/SIEM integrations

Enterprise integrates with Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools, so you can monitor and prevent data leaks across your tech stack.

Governance & Management

Organization console

The organization console lets you manage multiple Notion workspaces under a single governance structure. You can enforce security policies, manage billing, and oversee admin controls across all workspaces.

This is especially valuable for companies with multiple subsidiaries, regional teams, or business units that each need their own workspace but should be governed centrally.

Domain management

Control which email domains can join your workspace, and automatically assign new users to specific teamspaces based on their domain. This prevents unauthorized access and streamlines onboarding.

Admin content search

Admins can search across the entire workspace-even content in private teamspaces they don't have direct access to. This is critical for compliance, legal discovery, and security investigations.

Unlimited page history

Instead of 90 days, you get unlimited version history. This is important for regulatory compliance and long-term content governance.

Collaboration & Scale

Restricted Members (new user type)

Restricted Members are a new user role designed for contractors, external partners, vendors, and agencies who need limited access to your workspace.

How it works: Restricted Members have default-no visibility. They only see pages, databases, or teamspaces that are explicitly shared with them. All actions are tracked in audit logs and page history, so you have full oversight.

Use cases:

• Bringing external agencies into project workspaces without exposing the rest of your company's content
• Giving contractors access to specific deliverables or review workflows
• Allowing vendors to collaborate on procurement or integration projects
• Creating secure, least-privilege access for partners who need to contribute but shouldn't see sensitive company data

Restricted Members are priced the same as standard Members and are managed with the same enterprise controls (SSO, SCIM, permission groups) plus additional security layers.

Workspace analytics

Enterprise includes analytics to see how your workspace is being used-page views, active users, content engagement. This helps you understand adoption patterns and identify areas where teams need more training or support.

Customer Success Manager (conditional)

Depending on your contract size, you may get a dedicated Customer Success Manager to help with onboarding, training, and ongoing optimization.

Customizable guest limit (250+)

While Business caps guests at 250, Enterprise lets you customize this limit based on your needs.

Who Should Choose Enterprise?

You're a good fit for Enterprise if:

• You're a company with 100+ employees or fast-growing teams expecting to scale beyond 100
• You operate in a regulated industry (finance, healthcare, legal, government) with compliance requirements
• You need audit logs, SCIM provisioning, and advanced security controls
• You're managing multiple Notion workspaces and need centralized governance
• You work with external partners, vendors, or contractors and need secure, auditable collaboration with Restricted Members
• You need zero data retention for AI due to data sensitivity or regulatory requirements
• You have ISO certifications or are working toward them
• You need DLP/SIEM integrations to monitor data across your security stack

The Real Decision: What Does Your Company Actually Need?

At the end of the day, the right Notion plan comes down to your company's specific needs.

Choose Business if:

• You're a 50-100 person team without complex security or compliance requirements
• You need private teamspaces and advanced permissions, but audit logs and SCIM aren't priorities
• You're not in a heavily regulated industry
• You want full Notion AI features without enterprise-level data governance
• You're focused on collaboration and productivity, not compliance and risk management

Choose Enterprise if:

• You're 100+ employees or scaling fast

• You need audit logs, SCIM provisioning, and advanced security controls
• You're managing multiple workspaces and need centralized governance
• You work with external partners and need secure collaboration with Restricted Members
• You need zero data retention for AI
• Your IT or security team requires DLP/SIEM integrations and admin content search
