ShootQ Alternative
ShootQ is a legacy photography workflow tool. lemon.gallery covers similar workflow ground with a modern interface and galleries built in.
ShootQ was an early mover in photography workflow software and still has a dedicated following, though its interface hasn't kept pace with newer tools. It has no gallery or store component of its own.

Who Shootq suits — and when you outgrow it
ShootQ is a veteran studio-management CRM with a loyal base among established studios. Its age shows in the interface, and — like its peers — it manages the business but doesn't deliver or sell images.
What moving to lemon.gallery changes
lemon.gallery is a modern take on the same job: a clean CRM and workflow board plus the client galleries, proofing and sales ShootQ leaves out, on a single, current platform rather than a dated one.
Move your pipeline to lemon.gallery's stage board, bring new work across, and retire ShootQ once existing jobs are done.
Frequently asked questions
Is lemon.gallery more modern than ShootQ?
Yes — a current interface, a Pixieset-style gallery editor, and automations, rather than legacy CRM screens.
Does it include galleries?
Yes, which ShootQ does not — galleries, proofing and print sales are built in.
Is lemon.gallery harder to learn than an older tool like ShootQ?
Most photographers find the opposite. Templates and a visual workflow board mean less configuration before the first project is running.
