Church Trac Review

So it turns out that Church Trac offers some free church management software. They seem like a pretty legitimate company so I've included a small review below.

They offer their management software for free for the first 100 people; not a bad deal. After 100 entries they will start charging you. Church Trac charges based on the amount of people you have in your church. Just to give you some estimates; if you have around 250 people that you are tracking with their software then it will cost you about $60. From what I can see, this is a one time fee.

Church Trac's prices seem to be fairly inexpensive. I think their model consists of your church getting used to using their software. Once you are "hooked" on their software then you will not want to change; so you pay the $60 for the upgrade.

The Church Trac software seems pretty intelligent. One of the coolest features I see is that it can make absentee reports for people who weren't at church services. It does seem to be more focused on the membership/management side of things instead of on the accounting side of things.

Overall it sounds like it might not be a bad idea.
