Responses
It is not entirely clear to me whether we can use the Ablebits templates for our helpdesk where we want to have a set of separate personal templates (for each individual user) and a set of "team" templates that everyone in the team can use.
Can each set (personal and team) exist of max. 512 templates?
Hello Michiel,
Thank you for your question. Each licensed user can create up to 512 personal templates (in My Templates) and access the same number of folders and templates in a team. Don't hesitate to contact me again if you have any other questions or difficulties.
