# Professional Features

With a *Professional* plan or higher, you can invite [workspace members](team-members) to collaborate on your Render apps and infrastructure. You also gain access to powerful operational features, such as service autoscaling and environment isolation.

You can upgrade any *Hobby* workspace to a *Professional* workspace from its *Billing* page in the [Render Dashboard][dboard].
