SewingERP vs CloudBridal
Both publish their prices and both run in the cloud. CloudBridal is stronger at the counter: card payments, payment plans and links, and a client portal where brides pay. SewingERP is stronger in the workroom: every dress, stage by stage, and what it really cost.
We make SewingERP. Facts about CloudBridal come from its own website, read on October 12, 2026: pricing, home page, alterations, client portal.
Who should pick which
Pick CloudBridal if you run a bridal or formal wear shop that sells gowns and wants the software to take the money: Stripe card readers, payment links and payment plans, samples and special orders linked to vendor purchase orders, alterations priced on the order, and (on Ultimate) a client portal where brides follow their order, pay and sign, plus rentals, QuickBooks and Mailchimp. It is available today, with editions for the US, UK, Canada and Australia.
Pick SewingERP if your shop makes or heavily alters gowns in its own workroom or with outside seamstresses, you want each seamstress to update her own stage from her phone, and you want to know the real cost and margin of every dress. Unlimited users and the bride portal are in every plan. SewingERP is new (launched October 2026), and it does not process card payments.
