Give Pro plans unlimited sheets for Reports

Right now a Pro plan which is used by smaller businesses trying to grow, can include one sheet per report. It's a 1:1 ration between reports and sheets.

So you can have "unlimited sheets" on Pro, but only one report per sheet.

This is kind of a strange limitation because there's really no reason to have a report for a single sheet. One would simply go look at the sheet in most cases.

For example, we have about 30 projects running at any given moment for our marketing agency customers. They are pretty much the same basic project (about 50 tasks each).

but when you only have 5 staff and none of them are full time project managers, a small biz really needs a way to aggregate statuses and such from many sheets.

In other words, a smaller company needs this even more than a larger Business plan customer because the report is kind of taking the place of having someone who can follow-up on each of those 30 projects one by one.

We'd love to be a life-long Smartsheet customer but we need the help getting our processes and productivity to the point where we can afford to make the rather large leap from $8/user/mo to $25/user/mo.

In short, we can't use Reports at all because of this limitation. We don't even try anymore. So the "unlimited reports" feature for Pro users feels a bit bait and switch—but mostly it's just unusable.

I feel like we would need 100 sheet per report ratio if there had to be a limit. That would give us some room to grow up into our next subscription level.

But ideally the sheet:report ratio would just be unlimited, just like the reports.
