A Sprout Studio alternative without the gallery caps.
Sprout Studio is a real all-in-one: CRM, booking, invoicing, galleries with print sales, album proofing and thirty-plus automations. It starts at $19 a month with no free tier, and its lower plans cap active shoots and galleries at 10 or 20. Veyra starts free, every plan has unlimited galleries, RAW is accepted, and the CRM, booking and invoicing come with the £6 Grow plan, excluding VAT.
The short version
Sprout’s plans on 11 November 2026: Lite $19, Basic $36, Pro $51, Unlimited $69 a month (USD; no annual prices published). Lite and Basic cap active shoots and galleries at 10 and 20 and keep the full report suite for Pro and above; users are capped at 3 and brands at 2 on everything except Unlimited. There is no free tier, a 30-day trial, commission-free print sales through its own Freedom Print Lab, and a $995 White Glove migration service.
Veyra’s shape is simpler: a free plan with unlimited galleries, then Grow at £6 a month with 50 GB, CRM, booking, contracts, invoices and galleries for photo and film, RAW accepted. No caps on galleries on any plan. The honest trade: Veyra sells no prints, designs no albums, and its reporting is invoices and payments, not a general ledger.

Stay with Sprout Studio if
print and album income runs through its store and lab, your automations are deep and tuned, or you rely on its ledger-grade reports and calendar sync. Those are real capabilities Veyra does not have.
Choose Veyra if
you want unlimited galleries from the first pound, RAW and film delivery, and the business on one record at a fraction of the monthly cost. See client galleries, the photography CRM, booking and pricing.
What Veyra does not do yet
- No print store, print lab, album designer or design proofing.
- No external calendar sync and no bookkeeping-grade reports.
- The import is a checked CSV upload (see the switching guide); the iPhone app is in App Store review.
