Its a total time saver and I am so much more organised now. After 11 years I have gone full time with my photography and wouldn't have been able to do that without SN. The SN team are fantastic they are so helpful. THANK YOU SN XO > > **Cons**: Nothing. They are constantly making improvements so it just keeps getting better and better. > > Love it, I've had the most successful year by far, thanks to SN keeping me so organised. ----- ### "What a remarkable transformation of a business" — 5.0/5 > **Neil** | *15 November 2021* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: SN is amazing so much easier to use than my previous system Zoho and just does everything you want it to do without complicated bells and whistles you never need. There's always a wonderfully helpful support team that are as equally happy to help with the obvious as they are the trickiest problem. Using the system is a joy and it simplifies the process of getting stuff done and the clients think you're superhuman being so proactive. The truth is you're basically personalising the system out of the box. It's just amazing from day one. > > **Cons**: None really, it's just simplicity straight from the first use. > > It's made life easier and less stressful trying to juggle multiple weddings at once, it's made a massive improvement in the outward professionalism. ----- ### "Look elsewhere" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *16 August 2018* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's seemingly easy to use, mostly because there aren't that many features to confuse first timers. > > **Cons**: It is, at best, an immature product. The roadmap on their Facebook User page is regularly updated, but most of those features are just catching up to other established systems. The core functionality has a veneer of polish but once you use it for a few months cracks appear. For one thing, it is slow. If you check off two or three items quickly in the workflow it takes a second for the server to catch up, and it unclicks itself. You have to wait to make sure it is clicked before you move onto the next step. Automations make no sense, you can have it automatically send an email at a particular time but only in steps of hours and days -- so if you want to have an automation to send an email after something is filled in the soonest is "1 hour after" the event, there's no option for immediately. And the automation email only sends it to the client, there's no way to have a reminder email sent to any other address\! So if you have multiple clients then the automation only sends it to one. There are tons of other issues just like this, making the overall experience incredibly frustrating. This is made worse by the fact that one of the staff who is active on the Facebook User page is rude, defensive, and prefers to reply with accusations and snide comments rather than to listen to issues their users have. His solution to a few of the common issues is for the business to change its workflow, not for the software to accommodate. Join the group to see for yourself. > > We needed a simple CRM and payment system, and while we got the simple part, so many other issues came up that I wish I'd gone somewhere else. I now understand the value of choosing and learning a more complicated set up because ultimately it will be more flexible, and probably better service and support too. I very much regret paying for a whole year, though it does mean I have time now to move to another system. ----- ### "I LOVE Studio Ninja because it makes my job so much easier" — 5.0/5 > **Lucrecia** | *3 May 2023* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: My favorite feature is the workflows that I can create one time for each type of photography session or weddings a do and never have to worry again. My clients get communications from me very often and I don't even have to remember tasks because Studio Ninja does them for me automatically. Also their customer service is top notch. They always answer my questions right away. > > **Cons**: I love everything about it. No cons. And I have been in the business for 20 years. > > I've been in the business for about 20 years and hands down this is the best company I've worked with. I asked them where I could leave a review because they are so perfect that I needed to tell the world. Whoever is running this company is doing everything good and the team deserves 5 stars. I'm truly impressed with their system but also with the people that work there. They care, and that's why my job is easier. Thank you Studio Ninja\! ----- ### "Who was I before Studio Ninja?" — 5.0/5 > **Sable** | *16 December 2021* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the ease with which it provides its users. Studio Ninja is extremely intuitive without being unattainable to learn. It has all of the resources you need, without bombarding you with an impractical interface. > > **Cons**: So far, I’ve had no complaints. It was fairly easy to learn, and anything I didn’t immediately grasp, their customer service has been BAR NONE amazingly helpful, thorough, and quick. > > Prior to purchasing Studio Ninja, I had tried out most of the suggested photography-related studio management options. Literally, I free-trialed quite a few. What I loved about Studio Ninja was that I immediately recognized its process. It was fairly easy to learn and has made my life infinitely more organized. I’m excited to utilize this program with my clients more than ever. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/194425/studio-ninja?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/194425/studio-ninja) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
