Workspaces

Workspaces in BlueTicks allow you to organize your work and collaborate with team members in separate, dedicated environments.

  • Each workspace has its own settings, members, and resources
  • Data and configurations are isolated between workspaces
  • Team members can belong to multiple workspaces with different roles
  • Billing can be managed separately or consolidated across workspaces
