Before you choose
Check the plan and trial terms
A free plan can help you start without a subscription. Planning Center, Asoriba, ChMeetings, ChurchCMS, Tithely Giving, ChurchPlan and Excellerate publish free plans.
Trial terms differ. Planning Center and ChMeetings publish 30-day trials, while Faith Teams publishes a 10-day trial.
Match member and group needs
Compare the member limit and group management fields with your church's needs. These fields show whether a tool fits your membership records and group structure.
Church management software on this list is compared by member limit and group management, so check both before choosing a plan.
Review events and child check-in
Event registration can keep sign-ups in the same system as church records. Child check-in is a separate comparison field and may matter for services or programs with children.
Check the published entries for event registration and child check-in rather than assuming a plan includes them.
Compare communication and scheduling
SMS messaging can support time-sensitive updates. Volunteer scheduling can organize serving assignments and shifts.
These are separate comparison fields. Review them alongside the mobile app listing to see how the software fits communication and scheduling work.
Choose the platforms you use
Web access is listed across the category, with Android and iOS support also shown. API, macOS and Windows availability varies by tool.
If your church needs a phone app, desktop software or an integration, verify the platform fields before committing.
