Free Collaborators vs Non Licensed Users

JohnR

Can someone explain the difference between a non licensed user and a free collaborator?

e.g. 

1. Do they need a smartsheet account?
2. What can and can't they do?

The big difference is when the Collaborator is an Admin -- look for the key words "licensed Admin only". Be aware this does not mean a "licensed Admin in your account". Just licensed in some account.
