Creating a team

Teams are how you organise your checks in DomainDash, and how you bring colleagues in to keep an eye on things together. Everything lives inside a team.

Overview

Every DomainDash account belongs to at least one team. Your sites, billing, and members all live inside a team, so think of it as the shared space where everything happens. Most people create one team for their company or project, but you can have as many as you need.

When you first sign up, DomainDash walks you through creating your first team as part of onboarding. You can also create additional teams later from the team selector.

Every new team starts on a trial

When you create a team, it begins on a 30-day trial with the full set of features and no card required. When the trial ends, the team moves to the Free plan automatically. Your oldest site stays live, any others are paused (never deleted), and you can upgrade at any time to bring them all back. See your free trial for the details.

Creating your first team

After signing up and verifying your email, you'll land on the team setup screen. This is a quick three-step process.

1. Choose to create or join

   DomainDash asks whether you'd like to create a new team or join an existing one. If a colleague has already invited you, enter your invitation code here. Otherwise, click Create a new team to get started.

2. Name your team

   Enter a name for your team. This is usually your company or project name, like "Acme Design Co". You can change the team name at any time from Team settings.

3. Click Create team

   Hit Create team and you're in. DomainDash takes you straight to your dashboard so you can start adding sites. Your new team begins on a 30-day trial, so you don't need to pick a plan to get going.

Creating additional teams

If you work across multiple organisations or projects, you can create extra teams without needing a separate account, keeping each one's sites and billing cleanly apart.

1. Open the team selector

   Click your team name at the top of the left sidebar to open the team selector. (On a phone, tap the team chip at the top-left of the screen.)

2. Click Create a new team

   At the bottom of the team list, click the Create a new team button. This takes you back to the team creation flow.

3. Name your new team and continue

   Enter a name and click Create team. Each new team starts on its own 30-day trial, with its own plan, billing, and members, so it's completely separate from any existing teams.

How many members can a team have?

How many people you can invite depends on the team's plan:

A few things to know

• Each team is independent. Sites, billing, and members are all per-team. Adding a site to one team doesn't affect another.
• You can rename your team from Team settings whenever you like.
• Team owners have full control. The person who creates a team is the owner. Owners can invite members, manage billing, and delete the team.
