This system allows me to easily reach out to members, send schedules when assignments are needed for serving. The confirmation message is also very helpful so that the acknowledgement is one click. No need to log in or develop another email to confirm Pros The ease of learning the system and having all of the information that I need on the dashboard. Using the customized email is the most appreciated features. Everyone reaches back and thanks me for the beautiful email. Cons Would like to add people to the email who are not members, but first time visitors. This would keep all of the outgoing emails within this system - instead of from my personal email representing the church. I also understand that the system was created to support members, not visitors. Switched from [Website World](https://www.capterra.com/p/231059/Website-World/) Price and Convenience. The system was a part of the website development but we did not have enough of the CRM Review Source CJ Christian J. Operations Manager Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent features, excellent pricing structure, easy to learn" June 1, 2026 5.0 Overall, we've been very happy with our ChMeetings experience. I love that they are actively receiving feedback and implementing new features all the time. I also really appreciate how easy it is to use. I had to train some of our older members to use it for logging our collections, and they were resistant at first. But they've been doing it for exactly 6 months now and have told me that it's much easier to use than our previous software. They've been able to develop a deeper understanding of how to use it and so they can intuitively troubleshoot their own issues without calling out to me for help! The way it's empowered them to be more computer literate has been amazing. Pros For the price, ChMeetings met all of our church's needs - flexible roster, contribution recording and reporting, financial reconciliations, event management and attendance tracking. We also enjoy using the app to keep the members up-to-date with events and members-only resources. Cons I would like to see more flexibility in reporting. ChMeetings aggregates a lot of data, but I've found that I wasn't quite able to get the exact reports that I needed. I have an analytics background and I would just love a build-your-own report. Switched from [Servant Keeper](https://www.capterra.com/p/276838/Servant-Keeper/) We had such an old version of Servant Keeper that it was no longer supported. The cost to switch to the SaaS version was prohibitive for our small church. Review Source KB Kenneth B. Founder and senior pastor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Chmeetings" September 12, 2024 2.0 My overall experience was ok just need more geatures Pros Ability to have custom app with cms features Cons The app info was ch branded instead of my own brand Alternatives considered [Pushpay](https://www.capterra.com/p/142580/Pushpay/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings I ended up leaving chmeeting a and going to PushPay for self branded app Review Source Response from Jios Apps September 26, 2024 We’re sorry to hear that the branded mobile app didn’t meet your expectations. Since you left over a year ago, we’ve released numerous new features, updates, and improvements to both the branded mobile app and the church management platform, with more enhancements on the way. Customer satisfaction and providing the best value in the market remain our top priorities. Thank you, Pastor Kenneth, for sharing your feedback. ML Monica L. Intern Zone Pastor and Finance Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Simply the Best" May 12, 2026 5.0 Absolutely love it, on it every day, has changed the whole ball game for us. No more tedious complicated Google spreadsheets that break all the time. Such great value for money. God bless the creators and developers exceedingly and abundantly above all that you could ever think or imagine! Pros I have been searching high and low for something like CHMeetings that provides an all encompassing system that allows one to have a proper database for all people, leaders, groups and a huge bonus of an almost fully fleshed accounting system as a bonus. AND it doesn't cost a fortune and you don't need to pay extra for any features that is included in the whole system, it's all just available, it works and customer support is fast & so helpful. The email application works perfectly, our emails have been looking so much better, more professional and it's really easy to navigate. We have rolled out the system to over 200 of our leaders by now and everyone loves it and it's been really user friendly. Cons The only thing that can be improved is perhaps under the Follow ups it is sometimes difficult to see who created a follow up if the Responsible person is removed. And it might be helpful to give the person that created the follow up a notification once the follow up has been completed. Alternatives considered [Planning Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/76708/Planning-Center/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings Chmeetings ended up being way more affordable, allowed us to have access to everything that Planning Center had, plus additional accounting features. The Giving product in Planning Center would not at all have worked in Namibia, I would have zero access to any of their accounting features. With the size of our congregations & the amount of leaders we have, it would have been impossible to afford the system to the extent to everything we have access to in ChMeetings. Switched from [Google Sheets](https://www.capterra.com/p/169718/Google-Sheets/) Because our congregation grew to a point where the formulae and hundreds of spreadsheets couldn't support the growth of the church anymore. Review Source YO Yanina O. Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Wonderfully surprised" April 24, 2026 5.0 Overall, I'm sure other platforms do some things better than Chmeetings, but for what we needed for our small church, it has exceeded expectations. I have been so surprised as they didn't really come up on my radar when I was first looking and I think they are a hidden gem of a company! Pros There is so much to love! I love that they have an app that we can use within our teams to communicate via notifications. No need for SMS subscriptions as long as everyone has logged into the app. The volunteers and service planning does the job. Also, the app is amazing for quick registrations to events and meetings with options to link it to a form that gathers information and automatically links it to registrants existing profiles on the database! And you can share the link so that even those without the app can register the same way. They also have good security settings in that you can place rules around what people can from the database based on their roles. The learning curve didn't seem very steep to begin with, and I found that I learnt more from just trialing the system with a small group of people to learn what the user experience is and how I can manage it from an admin side of things. We have not used the payments and donations functions as we have our own systems for this so I cannot comment on this part. The BEST part about Chmeetings is the customer service and the team of developers. They have improved features based on my feedback and I am honestly shocked at how responsive they are and how hard they work to improve user experience and functionality. Cons Some of the design features (fonts/graphics) are limited, especially if you want to use it as your primary platform for communications that are more than just text. Also, you can save email templates with a particular signature so you're not copying and pasting every time, but it's not exclusive to the user - anyone can use anyone's template to email someone, and this can be problematic for privacy reasons. However, they are updating the platform so regularly that I wouldn't be surprised if this is something that is no longer a con. Alternatives considered [Planning Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/76708/Planning-Center/)[ChurchTrac](https://www.capterra.com/p/125787/ChurchTrac/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings The price was reasonable and the app seemed like a helpful feature for our congregation. Review Source Ryan G. Senior Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "ChMeetings is a Great CHMS! Recommended for all churches. " June 25, 2026 5.0 Overall I’ve had a positive experience with ChMeetings. It is very menu driven which I like and the menu options are clear. Pros I think the Worship planning is easy to use. Also, ChMeetings is one of the only CHMS system which has an accounting module. Cons One of the things I think can be improved is the Songs database section in the new Worship Planning tool. Specifically adding a field for CCLI number and an added bonus would be to integrate with CCLI and Praise Charts (praisecharts.com) to import chord charts. Alternatives considered [Pushpay](https://www.capterra.com/p/142580/Pushpay/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings The price and the inclusion of an accounting module. If Planning Center had an accounting module I would have stayed with them. Switched from [Planning Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/76708/Planning-Center/) PCO lacks an accounting module. This is needed as our church is smaller and we don’t have an accounting expert. Review Source BM Barry M. EVP and Technical Leader Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Chmeetings has it all" June 23, 2026 5.0 So far, amazing. The software is complete and easy to use. We replaced several apps with this one app. The mobile app sets it apart from the competitition. Pros I like how complete the software is. It replaced 5 different software packages. The software is very intuitive to use. When I have questions, the support is quick and accurate in answering my questions. The software enables us to communicate with member via text, email or push notifications using the mobile app. Cons No much. The software is very complete. When there is something I don't like, I have submitted a feature request and within weeks to a couple of months, I have seen my requested features get implemented.

We needed more features. Review Source DP Dessie P. Lead Pastor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Chmeeting vs ChurchTrack" May 30, 2026 5.0 I have already committed to this platform, so I will continue to use it for now. I am not sure that I will after the initial year, Pros Ease of Use is top-notch. Set up is a breeze. Being able to customize the app is helpful. The messaging feature is also helpful. The cost is reasonable. Cons After purchasing this product, I found churchTrack. I prefer them (churchTrack), but I have already purchased Chmeeting Alternatives considered [ChurchTrac](https://www.capterra.com/p/125787/ChurchTrac/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings I did not know about Churchtrack until after I committed Review Source SW Samantha W. Adminstration Officer Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent Software for a Small Church" June 9, 2026 5.0 This has been an excellent addition to our small church, it is able to meet our needs as a database and has been easy to intergrate public facing features, such as the calendar, into a wordpress website. All team members who have access to CHMeetings have been able to navigate the system to achieve what they are expected to do. We would highly reccomend this software. Pros Church meeting is easy to use, has been very effective for our needs as a small church. It has been fairly easy for some of our older team members to be able to use the church meetings software fairly easily, as it has a clean and simle layout. Cons We have been really happy with all elements of the software. The team at CHmeetings have been prompt in responding to any queeries or issues we have had. They have taken our feedback on board and have quickly implemented many of the features we have asked for to allow for greater compatibility/meet our church's needs. Review Source AP Annabel P. Office Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Wonderful program" July 3, 2026 4.0 It is mostly easy to create newsletters, sign ins and outs, church directories, church members to set up their online account, etc and the staff are really helpful. Pros Weekly Newsletters are easy to create and much easier for members to read them on their phone without having to move a pdf around. Cons Not being able to make an easily printed pdf of the newsletters. I have to create a new document separately on Canva to be able to give paper copies out. Alternatives considered [Elvanto](https://www.capterra.com/p/125780/Elvanto/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings It had everything we needed for a good price Review Source KM Kenneth M. Administrative Assistant Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product" April 25, 2025 4.0 Very pleased with the overall use of the product. After using it at one church, two others now use it based on my recommendation. Pros Very User-friendly and easy to use. Very versatile. So many modules. Cons Importing contributions works well. However, I wish that once the envelope number was on the template, the import would be processed. Just my preference. Switched from [PowerChurch Plus](https://www.capterra.com/p/2679/PowerChurch-Plus/) Cost too much and difficult to use. I was not here when it was discontinued. I recommended ChMeetings.

Membership Chair Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A nexus of information at your finger tips" March 21, 2025 5.0 5 out of 5 star! best app to keep all your people and their information in one place. Pros the ability to organize my members in my group with helpful information. Its perfect for keeping track of organization members, team rosters, clients, and so many more groups out there. Cons Id like to see more abilities to move quickly through people on there especially if I am updating bulk information on a tab Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) we needed a faster way to keep track of members Review Source MS Mitch S. Pastor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great, affordable full-function app for church management" January 9, 2025 5.0 Excellent in usability and functionality. Very happy with CHMeetigns. Pros Full functionality for a church. Mobile app works well. Easy for membership to pick up. Cons Navigation to some functions may take a few clicks. A little learning curve e.g. with check-ins. Alternatives considered [Zoho CRM](https://www.capterra.com/p/155928/Zoho-CRM/)[Breezy](https://www.capterra.com/p/141702/Breezy-HR/)[Planning Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/76708/Planning-Center/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings Best cost/feature/ease-of-use balance of all looked at. Also looked at ChurchTrak, BreezeCMS, etc. Review Source DM DANIEL M. Managing Director Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Church Management system" January 13, 2025 5.0 Needs more improvement to meet our needs but so far, it is an excellent solution and makes church management easy Pros Easy to use and understand, Covers most aspects on Church management Cons Financial management side needs improvement, It is difficult capturing offering takings without creating whose paying the funds into the church. General offering requires no indication of person paying Alternatives considered [ChurchTrac](https://www.capterra.com/p/125787/ChurchTrac/) Reason for choosing Chmeetings Affordable and user friendly and easy mobile access for members Review Source TU Trish U. Operations Team Leader Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CHMeetings is a great asset for church administration" March 11, 2026 5.0 Very positive. The specific focus on church administration gives us a central repository for all data and reports. Pros User interface is comfortable and mostly intuitive. For our small church, the subscription price is very reasonable. Support is always responsive, fixing bugs quickly and our enhancement requests are slowly being met. 2FA provides a very secure environment. Cons The very clumsy menu system. Having menu access controlled by "admin" and "member" modes is not logical. E.G., A "member" user has the Directory and their profile available on their menu but an "admin" user does not have access to the controlled Directory option or ready access to their profile. For "admin" users, the profile behind their profile picture above the ministry does not allow access to all options, particularly Volunteering.

May 9, 2025 5.0 the response time is absolutely amazing, very polite and extremely knowledgeable team willing to work with every unique party to fir their needs. Pros customizable to fit our unique church finance and complex system. their developers are second to none, especially \[sensitive content hidden\] , he and his team have preformed miracles to make the system work the way we wanted it which in turn saved us a ton of manual entries. there are way to many positives to mention here. if there were more than 5 stars, I would have given them 100 stars. excellent work CH team Cons to be quiet honest, nothing so far.however, when I first placed my very first call to them, it took about 5 hours for someone to get back to me, but since then, when ever i send an email or make a call, its almost within an hour or two there is a response. overall this Con doesn't even count in my books Review Source AH Andrew H. Evangelist Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Essential Tool!" November 11, 2025 5.0 Very favorable experience. The support team has been excellent in response time as well as willingness to update features. Pros Provides an clean interface for keeping contact info organized and usable. The forms function is especially useful for getting contact info for more volunteers and then placing them in the appropriate ministry category. Cons The main con is the price. The system could additionally offer more adaptability in various sections, which would make it easier to tailor to different ministries. It is easy to understand and use as it is currently though. Review Source DF Donna F. Administrative Assistant Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Highly recommend!" May 21, 2025 5.0 My pastor signed up with CHMeetings, and has asked me to utilize it for our church. It truly is a blessing, a one stop place for all the church needs. The customer service is very helpful too! Pros All of the resources that are put together in one place is a blessing! There is so much that can be done through CHMeetings. Church event planning, volunteer coordinating, calendars, giving records, bookkeeping, and more! Cons The only thing that is slightly difficult is remembering what the various icons mean, but that will come with the more I use it. Review Source RM Rueben M. Administrator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best Church Managment application" May 5, 2025 5.0 This is by far the best app we've used as a church. Our members are genuinely happy with it and have had no issues so far. The ability to give tithes and offerings through the app is a huge plus. While we’re still setting up our PayPal account, we’ve been using a direct payment link, which has worked well. It really simplifies congregation management, and it’s amazing how easily members can check events and stay updated. Pros It's very user-friendly—I really appreciate how it includes accounting features to help manage church finances and track attendance efficiently. Cons Currently, giving is limited to PayPal and Stripe, but it would be great to have the option to integrate additional service providers like PayFast. It would also be helpful to have the ability to add more automated tasks for improved efficiency. Review Source TS Tonya S. Secretary Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Learning as I go" July 3, 2025 4.0 I am thankful to have such a great group of associates to work with in CHmeetings. I usually try to figure things out for myself but when I need help, someone is always available, and they are wonderful. Pros I like the ease of using Chmeetings. I especially like the great customer service and quick responses when asking for assistance or asking questions. Cons I do not like every day beginning a new batch number, but that is because I only balance once a week. I will try to set the new batch number weekly and see how that goes. I do miss the fact when I close one batch on Monday it immediately goes to the next number in order (142 to 143). I'm a work in progress so I need to get used to the changes.

February 4, 2025 5.0 We have just started a new church and needed a program to record contributions. We found much more with ChMeetings! We can keep records of our members and visitors as well as events. This program is a great way to communicate within our church. And, of course, it is very easy to record the contributions and print or email the statements to our donors. Pros Great value for the cost! ChMeetings is easy to use. The support is friendly and knowledgeable, having online support as well as real people. Cons Some of our members are not computer literate and do no want to use the program.

Software is useful for who are doing the church-related works. Pros As a person who take care of accounting and all donations at church, this app was helpful for me to keep on track. Not only to that, I had some questions on the customer teams, and they were willing to help me out, which I was impressed. They were fast and quick to help me out! I would definitely recommend this software! Cons Honestly, there is no big bothering Cons for me, but I would say, it took me some time to pick up how this software works. But after I learned how it goes, it is so useful for me. Review Source MA Michael A.
