Memsource provides five different roles that user profiles can be attributed to and two roles that functions as organizations for the sharing of resources.
User licensing information can be found here.
Individual profile types:
Organizations:
Buyer
Vendor
Users can have more than one Memsource profile as long as each profile has a unique username. Translators can also work for several different agencies as Linguists and can have their own Team Start edition profile as well.
If using multiple profile, care must be taken with using the correct username and password to access a specific job. Only the profile of the user assigned a job can be used to access that job.
Consider investing in Team Start edition and acting as a Vendor so agencies can share projects or jobs.
