About ChurchTools

ChurchTools is a cloud-based church management solution (ChMS) that helps church leaders manage their members, groups, calendars, services, events, volunteers, songs, statistics and check-in. It gives members access to the church’s planning and organization.

Church leaders can keep member’s contact information organized in the membership database, which helps leaders manage users, small groups and relationships. Attendance, growth and participation reports are available.

Designated users can create schedules for services and events and assign volunteers to roles. Volunteers can accept or decline participation, while leaders get an overview of who's attending. ChurchTools reminds the volunteers of their tasks automatically. Events are displayed in the calendar, which can be integrated into the church's website.

Lyrics and song sheets can be uploaded to the service planning module or downloaded from CCLI-SongSelect integration. Rosters can be automatically generated and sent to those involved. Communication with email and text messages can be done one-by-one or with distribution lists.

ChurchTools offers services on a monthly subscription basis that includes suppo...

After having tried other tools, I´m very contend with CT.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

As I am the secretary of a small church, I work daily with the database of CT. I organize all our events and maintain our resources. It is a lot easier for me with one tool providing all modules. Bevor I used different tools for my jobs. Now I have all information in one place and can deal with information within one single tool. Our Sunday service teams use CT, too. For them it is very helpful, that different team members have access to the schedule and can drop off their information like ppt slides, songs, video clips etc. right in the event within "church service". That makes organizing the church service a lot easier. I was quite surprised how easily I got along with churchtools without needing tutorials etc. Most things work self-explaining.

Cons:

I can´t print our calender in a nice set-up. Maybe because I am a mac user? And as we don´t use "check-in" it seems, that I am not able to print labels directly out of CT.

Pros:

The bunch of tools in it. Didn´t find any comparable. All the big one like planingcenter are a joke in compare.

Cons:

The way to give rights can be complex, but very good instructions though. Everything is possible, but could be more handy.

Functionality

Pros:

When you start to use the software you realize that it makes a lot of sense. Once you start using it you and fill it with life you don't want to go back. The more people and teams use it, the more useful it is for everybody. You can manage your groups, teams, services, assign people, have built-in calendars and a powerful rights management. There is also a great community where you can share thoughts, ask questions, submit feature requests, read from others how they are working with the software.

Cons:

You need to understand the concepts of groups, teams, the structures etc. and assign the permissions accordingly (who is allowed to do and to see what). This can be frustrating at the beginning, but I would think this is the same for every software which is implementing role and rights management.

Pros:

Extensive rights management, great support, fast development, I am always looking forward to a new version.

Cons:

Until now we haven't notice anything negative. The aditional tables must run over the support, which is really fast and surely does this way to keep the data base integrity.

Pros:

This is a great way to manage your church. With limited staff, the software allows a user to provide anyone accessing the data with just what they need to see.

Cons:

It's difficult at first, but once you go through tutorials, it's easily understandable software. For medium to large parishes.

Functionality

Pros:

ChurchTools keeps all our information together in one place and the responsible person can always have an overall view of what is going on in the church, which rooms are being used, when, where and which kind of services, events, meetings we will have in the church and who will serve doing what in each service. Also the integration with CCLI-SongSelect makes the song management much easier for all worship teams.

Pros:

The different levels of privacy/participation are smart and helpful. The different categories make it very neatly arranged and help get thins done in an orderly manner. The support team is great and they are so helpful when my computer skills are at their end.

Cons:

There's is not yet an smartphone app version out there, waiting to be able to use it this way, too. Also, picking several people from a group to email to them (and neither one person only or the whole team) seems not to be possible.
