Photographer CRM and studio suite

Patsy vs Sprout Studio: two photographer-specific systems, one with a different first step.

Sprout Studio is a serious photographer-specific all-in-one with CRM, galleries, selling, marketing, and automation. Patsy should be chosen for the custom public website and conversational business guidance, not because Sprout lacks capability.

Choose Sprout Studio if

Its specialist strengths are your priority.

You need a mature photographer CRM, galleries, selling, and automation now.
A deep all-in-one workflow matters more than the public-site design process.
You want established plan tiers extending to unlimited users and brands.

If you may switch

Protect the business before changing the software.

No comparison page can promise a perfect transfer. Export first, verify the details that matter to current clients, and keep the old system available until the new path works.

Export contacts, shoots, workflows, galleries, contracts, invoices, sales configuration, and originals.
Map all automations before turning them off so live clients do not miss messages.
Build and verify the public website separately from CRM and gallery migration.
Run active jobs in parallel through completion when a mid-job move would create avoidable risk.
