Pricing that makes sense
The Studio Director has served the industry for a long time, but modern studios need more than just a database. You need growth tools.
What drives cost?
- Student Count TiersLike many legacy providers, costs often scale up as you succeed. We offer unlimited students on all plans.
- Outdated InterfacesThe "cost" isn't just money. It's the time your staff spends fighting clunky menus and the fast-clicks parents lose when registration is hard.
The CRM Dance Model
Simple, transparent, modern.
Modern & Mobile-First
Your parents live on their phones. Your studio software should too.
Unlimited Students
Don't get punished for growing your school.
We Set It Up
We migrate your data from Studio Director so you don't have to manually type in hundreds of names.
Who should choose what?
We were studio owners first. Here is our honest take.
Choose CRM Dance if...
- You catch yourself apologizing to parents for how hard your current portal is to use.
- You want to modernize your brand image.
Stick with Studio Director if...
- Your staff has used it for 10+ years and refuses to learn a new interface.
- You have highly specific, legacy custom reports that you built years ago.
