Frequently asked questions
Which is better for a new studio?
Studio Ninja's simplicity tends to suit a studio wanting to start booking clients quickly; Dubsado rewards the time invested once fully configured.
Do either include client galleries?
No — both are CRM tools only. A photographer on either still needs a separate gallery platform to deliver and sell photos.
Which has a real free plan?
Neither offers a permanent free tier — both are trial-then-subscription. A studio not ready to commit to either might consider a platform with an ongoing free plan instead.
Which handles multi-photographer studios better?
Dubsado's deeper customisation extends to multi-user permissions and workflows; Studio Ninja is built more around a solo or small-team operation.
