Thinking about upgrading your Framer plan but not sure when the right time is?
You're not alone.
Many startups, freelancers, and small businesses begin with Framer’s personal plans, only to realize later that they might need more. But how do you know when it's time to make the switch to a business plan?
Let's break it down.
Can you use Framer's personal plan for businesses?
Yes, You Can Use Framer's Personal Plans for Business
Here’s a little secret—just because Framer labels a plan as “personal” doesn’t mean you can’t use it for business.
You totally can!
Framer’s free and basic plans are great for startups, freelancers, and small projects. But at some point, you might hit some roadblocks.
That’s when an upgrade starts making sense.
When You Should Upgrade to a Framer Business Plan
1. You Need More Pages (A Lot More)
Framer’s personal plans come with limitations on how many pages you can have.
If your site is growing and needs thousands of pages, you’ll need the business plan, which allows up to 30,000 pages, including CMS pages.
2. Your Bandwidth Is Maxing Out
Traffic is great—until your site starts slowing down.
If you’re noticing slow load times or hitting bandwidth limits, Framer’s business plan gives you higher bandwidth to keep your website running smoothly.
Faster speeds = happier visitors = more conversions.
The business plans allow you up to 500 GB of bandwidth.

3. You Need More CMS Collections
If you're managing a lot of content—think blogs, case studies, product pages—you’ll need more CMS collections to keep everything organized.
The business plan expands this limit up to 30 CMS collections, making it perfect for companies scaling their content strategy.
4. You Want More Editors on Your Site
Collaboration is key.
With Framer’s personal plans, you're capped to adding a maximum of 3 editors.
With the business plans you can add up to 6 editors.
5. You Need More Version History
Ever made a mistake and wanted to go back to an earlier version of your site?
Framer’s business plan gives you higher version history of 180 days as opposed to the 30 days (on pro plan, lower on other plans) found on the personal plan.
This allows you to restore previous designs and edits without stress.
6. You Need More Storage
If you're uploading tons of high-resolution images, videos, or files, storage limitations can become a problem.
The business plan gives you up to 100 GB of cloud storage to keep your media-heavy projects running smoothly.
7. Your Form Limits Are Too Low
If you’re using forms for lead generation, sign-ups, or surveys, hitting form submission limits can be frustrating.
Framer’s business plan increases these limits allowing you to receive 10,000 monthly submissions so you never miss a lead.
8. You’re Building a Multi-Language Website
Need to go global?
The business plan lets you create multiple locales, up to 5 locales for bilingual or multilingual sites, so you can reach audiences in different languages.
9. You Need More Advanced Features
With the business plan, you get access to premium features like:
Staging environments
For testing before going live. This is option is also available on Pro plans.
301 redirects
For better SEO and site restructuring. Allows up to 500 redirects (unlimited redirects on the custom plan)
Global & premium CDNs
For faster load times worldwide
If your business is growing, these features can make a big difference.
