Best Photography Studio Management Software

It helps me to easily keep track of all my projects, leads, invoices and emails. It's a game changer, saves me a lot of time and stress.

PROS

I can create workflows that save me time , increasing my efficiency. Customer support is outstanding. They help you transfer all your current and future jobs at no additional cost to your subscription. Software is extremely user friendly.

CONS

Well, I totally love this software. If I have to mention something... I would say it's not fully developed, which is not bad at all. They are constantly adding new features according the feedback user provide.

Manage invoices and payments

Studio Ninja helped me keep up with invoices and payments, and just keep up in general. I'm in and out so often that it's hard to find time to sit down and look over everything myself. The statistics helped me as well, it's such an empowering feeling to watch your business grow and have the knowledge to take it a step further.

PROS

Studio Ninja has a lot of tools to help professional photographers run their business successfully. It helps manage payments and keep up with invoices. Add your logo or personalize invoices. Get contracts or agreements e-signed, accept credit card payments and transfer directly. Users can send payment reminders and automatic emails. It has a simple CRM that's easy to manage. Users can create a personalized schedule and workflow. Studio Ninja can be used from anywhere, not only in the studio.

CONS

Some users may want more complexity instead of simplicity. I'm used to more detail. There's often lag time, and it can become unresponsive. I don't like having to close and start again. I was never able to use the questionnaires because of this. It's just not as fast as I need it to be.

Reason for choosing Studio Ninja

Studio Ninja was recommended by other photographers and I liked what I saw when visiting the website.

Reasons for switching to Studio Ninja

Picspotr did not have everything I needed for payments

Avoid if you can - not GDPR compliant

PROS

Not really that much to like to be honest, once you have seen past the advertising

CONS

Its not GDPR compliant, by this I mean when you close your account your clients will still be able to access personal data and still be sent invoice reminders!

Reasons for switching to Studio Ninja

Cheaper, UK based, better customers service

An absolutely essential part of my daily business workflow

Studio Ninja is an essential aspect of my daily workflow. I literally couldn't do my job without it!

PROS

It's easy to set up, intuitive and clear. Functions are laid out in a simple manner, and once set up, using the system is quite painless and simple.

CONS

I don't really feel much is missing; as soon as something is identified, the team is on it and updates that aspect of the platform. They're very responsive to community requests and suggestions.

Reason for choosing Studio Ninja

I liked that it was an Aussie platform. I joined the Facebook community and was amazed that the owners and designers regularly ask for feedback, explain new additions and updates, and generally are part of the online community for the software. I felt the UI was the best overall of the products I tried. I found the functionality to be the best, and the platform is way faster and snappier than the others.

Reasons for switching to Studio Ninja

I found 17 hats bloated, extremely slow, bad UI and ugly. I also found it was very US - centric with its design language and wording (I'm not in the US). I wanted a CRM that was more international, and was faster and less bloated.

The Best

Nothing but amazing.

PROS

Everything about it, from the quick customer service to the connection to Xero. The team is consistently improving it and taking suggestions from the Facebook forum, and are super quick to reply to all inquires. My clients love how easy it is to book and the fact that there is an easily accessible app to use on the go is awesome as well.

CONS

Sometimes there are errors that I don’t know how to fix, but again.. I just have to contact the team and they walk me through it easily.

Reason for choosing Studio Ninja

For usability and the fact that Honeybook is only available in the USA, so I wasn’t actually able to test it out. The only think it had over Studio Ninja was the ability for clients to set up automatic payments for their session.

Reasons for switching to Studio Ninja

Because the customer side of things, the customer service, the connection to other applications, the user interface, and so much more.
