Ahh that is unfortunate to hear, I will have to check this when I have a moment.
I do understand there was some confusion with this and the Bitwarden documentation was updated to reflect the 2-person free organization limitation being SaaS cloud only and not available on the self-hosted service.
I could not seem to find a mention of this limitation however in the documentation for Organizations types or Plans comparison.
Compare Personal Plans
In the following table, “premium features” (included for Premium Individual and Families Organizations) are marked with an asterisk (*).
Features For You Free Org Max Users 2 Secure storage for Logins, Notes, Cards, and Identities Unlimited Max no. of Collections 2 Access to Bitwarden across devices âś“ Storage sync across devices âś“ Secure Password Generator âś“ Cloud or Self-hosting âś“ Encrypted Export âś“ Bitwarden Send Text Only *Two-step login Authenticator apps or email *Encrypted file attachments - *Bitwarden Authenticator (TOTP) - *Vault Health Reports - *Emergency Access - *Priority Support - Cost to you Free
In fact due to the fact that the free 2-person Org shows the ability for Self-hosting with a " âś“" I presumed this had been already added, perhaps the documentation is incorrect again.
Edit: Found this previous reference, perhaps @tgreer or @bw-admin will be able to assist further with updating the documentation.
I will also submit a suggestion to the page directly, glad to hear this may be something that is being looked at.
