Where US-built CRMs cost Indian studios time
- Single-session data model. A multi-day Indian wedding has to be faked as several separate jobs.
- Card-first payments. UPI, NEFT and cash advances have to be recorded as manual notes.
- No GST concept. SAC codes and CGST/SGST/IGST context have to be handled in a second tool.
- USD subscriptions. Currency conversion and foreign-card friction on every renewal.
India-fit from the data model up
- Multi-event bookings. Every ceremony with its own crew, coverage and price inside one booking.
- UPI and bank advance logging. Record the payment method Indian clients actually use, against a milestone.
- GST-ready invoices. SAC 998361 with GSTIN and GST percentage from the booking.
- INR pricing. Plans from ₹999/month with a 14-day full-access trial.
