The Short Answer · Updated September 30, 2026

Dubsado Premier is $525/year (~$44/mo) flat-rate with up to 3 users included — the tier where automated workflows, scheduling, and public proposals unlock. Additional users start at $25/mo (4-10 users). AMW ClientHub comes with AMW Suite, one flat monthly price for the whole company that bundles ClientHub with CRM, Helpdesk, Proposals, Funnels, and AI agents. Dubsado wins for creative solo operators and small teams who want one tool for invoicing + contracts + client portals. AMW Suite wins for service businesses that already have invoicing/billing handled and need a client portal that connects to the rest of their sales + delivery stack.

Choosing between AMW ClientHub and Dubsado depends on whether you want one tool for everything or a focused client portal that connects to your existing stack. Dubsado is the all-in-one — invoicing, contracts, lead forms, scheduling, client portals, and workflows. AMW ClientHub focuses on the portal experience itself and integrates with your invoicing, your CRM, and your delivery tools.

Dubsado built its reputation with creative professionals — wedding planners, photographers, designers, coaches. Its template library, workflow engine, and brand voice all reflect that audience. If your business is a creative service practice and you want one tool to run everything, Dubsado has been refined for that use case for over a decade.

AMW ClientHub is the client portal inside AMW Suite. It is built for service businesses running delivery as one piece of a larger sales-and-support motion — consultancies, agencies, professional services firms, B2B service teams. Clients see their projects, files, messages, and milestones in one branded portal. The portal connects to AMW CRM (the contact record), AMW Proposals (the signed agreement), and Attribution (the revenue source). Invoicing happens via your existing tool (we recommend Medusa for AMW customers).

How to Choose Between AMW ClientHub and Dubsado

Choose AMW ClientHub when…

  • You run a service business with separate sales, delivery, and support functions — consultancy, agency, professional services firm, B2B service team
  • Your team is 4+ users (Dubsado per-user math starts adding up at user #4)
  • You already have invoicing and contracts handled, and you only need the portal
  • You want AI agents working alongside your team — AMW Suite includes them
  • You want predictable flat pricing without per-user climbs
  • You want one bill across CRM, proposals, client portal, and funnels (AMW Suite, one flat monthly price for the whole company)

Choose Dubsado when…

  • You are a solo creative pro or run a small creative team (3 users or fewer)
  • You want one tool for invoicing + contracts + portals + workflows + scheduling
  • Your business is in the creative service space — weddings, photography, design, coaching
  • You are comfortable building rule-based workflow automations by hand
  • You want a 21-day free trial before committing

Or run both side-by-side

Running Dubsado and AMW ClientHub together is possible. The pattern that makes sense: keep Dubsado for invoicing, contracts, and scheduling (the things it does natively that AMW ClientHub does not), and use AMW ClientHub for the client portal experience itself — branded portals, file delivery, project boards, messaging, and the AI agent layer when on AMW Suite.

Dubsado handles "is the contract signed and the invoice paid"; AMW ClientHub handles "where does the client log in to see their work." The two connect via Zapier or webhooks at the moment a contract is signed in Dubsado → client portal goes live in AMW.

If you are migrating fully off Dubsado, our team handles that as part of the engagement — client list, project history, and active project status. Note that Dubsado-native features (invoicing, contracts, scheduling) need to be re-homed to your replacement tools during migration. Reach out and we will scope what comes over.

Each, in their own words.

AMW ClientHub

Starting at
$349 /mo

AMW Suite Team: one flat monthly price for the whole company, up to 5 users. Business is $699/mo for up to 10 users and adds revenue attribution. Every plan includes the AI agents.

AMW ClientHub is the branded client portal inside AMW Suite. Clients log in to see their projects, files, messages, milestones, and signed agreements in one place. Every interaction writes back to the contact record in AMW CRM.

When a client's data sits in 10 to 20 separate tools, your team keeps switching apps and re-entering the same details. AMW Suite keeps the portal, CRM, proposals, and support connected on one client record, so the team works more efficiently. That connection makes AMW more powerful and every capability stronger, because the AI agents work from the whole client picture: they read project status, file deliveries, and message threads, flag work that needs attention, and draft status updates in your voice. A person approves each action. It all comes at one flat monthly price for the whole company.

AMW ClientHub is the client-facing workspace — branded portals, project boards, file delivery, messaging, milestone tracking, signed agreement storage. Invoicing happens via your existing tool. ClientHub comes with every AMW Suite plan, alongside the CRM, Proposals, Funnels and AI agents.

Strengths

  • Flat $79/mo with unlimited users — no per-seat math as your team grows
  • AI agents included with AMW Suite — they read project activity and draft status updates
  • Native integration with AMW CRM, AMW Proposals, and AMW Attribution — one workspace, no Zapier
  • Branded portals with custom domains, password protection, and per-client theming
  • AMW Suite bundles ClientHub + CRM + Helpdesk + Proposals + Funnels + AI agents at one flat monthly price for the whole company
  • Built and stress-tested on a real 27-year-old agency before it shipped to customers

Considerations

  • Newer to market than Dubsado — beta tier still visible in some views
  • No native invoicing — pair with Medusa, Stripe, or your existing billing tool
  • No native scheduling — pair with Cal.com or Calendly
  • Workflow library is leaner than Dubsado (focused on service-business use cases)

Best for

Service businesses running delivery alongside sales and support — consultancies, agencies, professional services, B2B service teams Teams with 4+ users who want flat-rate pricing (Dubsado per-user math gets expensive) Service businesses that already have invoicing handled and need just the portal Founders who want one bill across CRM, proposals, client portal, marketing analytics, and funnels

Dubsado

Starting at
$525 /year

Premier plan, flat-rate. Includes 3 users + automated workflows + scheduling + public proposals. Extra users: $25/mo (4-10), $45/mo (11-20).

$335 /year — Starter — no workflows, no scheduling, no public proposals; 1 lead form only

Verified May 12, 2026

Dubsado is the all-in-one client management tool for creative professionals. It bundles invoicing, contracts, lead capture forms, scheduling, client portals, and workflow automation into one product. The platform has been refined over a decade and is one of the most established tools in its category.

Dubsado Premier is where most working teams land, with automated workflows, unlimited lead forms, scheduling, public proposals, bookkeeping integration, and Zapier connectivity. The Starter tier ($335/year) is lighter: it lacks the workflow automation that defines Dubsado for most users.

Dubsado is best understood as the operating system for a solo creative or small creative team. If you run a wedding planning business, a photography studio, a design practice, or a coaching firm, Dubsado handles the back office. Where it gets thinner is for service businesses running delivery alongside a separate sales motion — the platform is not designed around that lifecycle.

Strengths

  • Mature all-in-one platform refined for creative professionals for over a decade
  • Native invoicing, contracts, lead capture, and scheduling in one tool
  • Workflow automation with email, task, and form triggers
  • Custom branding and client portals on every plan
  • 21-day free trial with full Premier access

Considerations

  • Premier tier ($525/year, ~$44/mo) includes 3 users; extra users are $25/mo (4-10), $45/mo (11-20), $60/mo (21-30)
  • Automated workflows require Premier — Starter ($335/year, ~$28/mo) lacks automation
  • Workflow engine is rule-based — no AI agent layer
  • Best for creative service professionals; less natural fit for service-business delivery workflows where sales/support are separate functions
  • Additional brands are $10/mo each (separate businesses on the same account)

Best for

Solo creative professionals — wedding planners, photographers, designers, coaches Small creative teams (3 users or fewer to keep pricing flat) Businesses that want one tool for invoicing + contracts + portals + workflows Teams comfortable building rule-based workflow automation by hand
21-day free trial; days to weeks for full template + workflow setup

Frequently Asked Questions

How does AMW ClientHub pricing compare to Dubsado in 2026?
AMW ClientHub comes with AMW Suite, one flat monthly price for the whole company. That one subscription replaces a lot of separate apps (client portal, CRM, support desk, proposals, funnels and more) and includes AI agents. It usually costs less than paying for each of those tools separately. See current plans at amworldgroup.com/software/suite. Dubsado Premier is $525/year (~$44/mo) flat for 3 users + automated workflows + scheduling. Extra Dubsado users cost $25/mo (4-10), $45/mo (11-20). As a team passes 3 users, Dubsado's per-user add-ons start to climb while the AMW Suite price stays flat. Dubsado pricing as of May 2026.
Can I migrate from Dubsado to AMW ClientHub?
Yes. Migration from Dubsado is handled by our team as part of the engagement, covering client list, project boards, message history, and active project status. Plan for the invoicing and contracts re-homing piece separately: Dubsado bundles those natively, and with AMW we recommend Medusa for invoicing and AMW Proposals for contracts. Reach out and we will scope what comes over and agree on a timeline that fits your team.
What is the difference between Dubsado workflows and AMW ClientHub AI agents?
Dubsado workflows are rule-based automations — "when contract is signed, send email A, create task B, schedule reminder C." You configure them by hand and they fire reliably. AMW Suite includes AI agents that read project status, file deliveries, and message threads, flag work that needs attention, and draft status updates in your voice. A person approves each action. The agents come with AMW Suite, alongside ClientHub.
Does AMW ClientHub include invoicing like Dubsado?
No. AMW ClientHub focuses on the portal experience — branded portals, project boards, file delivery, messaging, milestone tracking, and signed agreement storage. Invoicing is handled by a separate tool. We recommend Medusa (AMW customers can use the same checkout infrastructure that runs amworldgroup.com), Stripe, or your existing billing tool. The trade-off: AMW does not bundle invoicing, but you also do not pay for invoicing features you may not need.
Is Dubsado a good fit for service businesses outside the creative-pro space?
Dubsado was built for creative professionals — wedding planners, photographers, designers, coaches. It works for other service businesses but the platform language, template library, and feature priorities reflect the creative-pro audience. For consultancies, agencies, professional services firms, and B2B service teams with separate sales, delivery, and support functions, AMW ClientHub (and the rest of AMW Suite) is the more natural fit. For solo creative pros or small creative teams, Dubsado is the more refined product for that specific use case.
How does the unlimited-users pricing model affect cost at scale?
For a 10-user team, Dubsado Premier is $525/year + ($25/mo × 7 extra users × 12 months) = $2,625/year total, or $219/mo equivalent. For a 20-user team the gap widens further: Dubsado is $525 + ($45 × 17 × 12) = $9,705/year. AMW ClientHub comes with AMW Suite, which is one flat monthly price for the whole company within your plan's user cap, so adding a teammate adds no per-user charge (see current plans at amworldgroup.com/software/suite). For a very small team that needs native invoicing, Dubsado can be the cheaper choice; as the team grows, the flat Suite price holds steady while Dubsado's per-user add-ons climb.
Can I try AMW ClientHub before committing?
AMW Suite is sold and onboarded with our team. Reach out and we will walk you through the options and what setup looks like for your team. Click "See AMW ClientHub" below to start the conversation.
What about HoneyBook, Bonsai, or SuiteDash instead?
Each is a fair alternative for different teams. HoneyBook competes directly with Dubsado in the creative-pro space — slightly different feel, similar feature set. Bonsai is the closest direct competitor to AMW ClientHub on the service-business side (we will publish a dedicated comparison). SuiteDash is a deeper white-label option with more customization but a steeper learning curve. If you are weighing AMW ClientHub against an all-in-one creative-pro tool, Dubsado is the closest match, and the comparison above applies most directly.
