Sprout does everything that Pixieset and the others do PLUS incorporates online galleries, IPS sales, album proofing and now scheduling!
For real though. HoneyBook may only cost $200.00 for the year - but that is the wrong way to look at it. That is $200.00 just for the CRM. You also need to factor in the yearly cost of your gallery provider, album proofer, scheduler, etc. Once those are added in Sprout becomes much more cost-effective than HoneyBook overall.
