Pixbox vs ShootProof
2026 Comparison
Photographers leave ShootProof for the same reasons: bill stacks, storage anxiety, Drive-looking handoffs, and delivery support that never ends. Pixbox is a client box for the shoot — tools only when you need them. ShootProof bundles gallery + CRM at $15–40/mo. Pixbox splits the job: client box for delivery, tools $5/mo each when you turn them on (Studio Manager when you need jobs/invoices).
