Church Accounting Software

There are a few more admin settings that would be nice to be easier. Managing permissions checked and up to date for several integrations and users can be a little tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It provides the business teams with one single cloud platform for finance activities rather than a scatter gun of spreadsheets and other platforms. And from an IT point of view, it's easier to manage user administration and review permissions, and you get greater visibility of how the platform integrates with other applications.

I see lag time when trying to load large lists. For example, list of recent vendors... it takes time for all the options to load, and being web-based if you have a slower connection, it really takes longer than server based.

Like each program, it has its quarks. Reporting could always use upgrades and the dimensions you use to define reports and fields could be more grand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s modern and flows so much better than 300. Paying bills is a breeze, and cutting checks is much easier too—fewer clicks, with a process that finally makes logical sense. The ability to upload an attachment is really helpful because when you search the payable, you can see the backup instantly. I also like that the payable header includes an attractive banner showing how it was paid, when it was paid, and the trace #.

I also like how reconciliations flow. Once you click and “match” an item, you can filter it out so it’s no longer an option. This has saved hours of searching for a single transaction, since you can search by payee, method of payment, or transaction amount.

Reporting was always an issue in Sage 300. Here, you can pretty much create any report you want as long as the dimensions are available. You can also automate reports so you don’t have to run them every month or for every project—you can literally set it and forget it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software helps bridge a communication gap with our students, prospective tenants and our parents. Verifying your toll free number can be a bit of a struggle, but that's going to be a situation that you'll have with any vendor ~ fortunately DialMyCalls has agents readily available to assist.

Communication, Outreach and Mass Message Distribution- We finally have an affordable way to reach out to our waitlist, residential body, and social media followers at once ~ without paying dozens of people to cold call the phones for hours on end. The ability to efficiently reach large groups at once directly affects our bottom line in multiple areas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest downside for me is the complexity of some sales workflows. In our configuration, certain status changes cannot be reversed, and revisiting a lead marked for future follow-up can require copying the record. That adds extra steps and makes maintaining a clear customer history more difficult.

I would like simpler navigation and more flexibility when handling everyday sales scenarios. The customization options are valuable, but they also require careful setup to keep the process straightforward for the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

NetSuite helps us keep track of sales activity across multiple people and accounts. By keeping customer records, opportunities, and quotes connected, it gives us a shared view of each deal and its progress.

For me, the main benefit is being able to identify opportunities that need follow-up, see where deals are getting stuck, and give management a clearer picture of the pipeline. Our sales statuses and saved searches help focus attention on records that need action.

Linking quotes to opportunities also makes it easier to track what was proposed and how the deal ultimately turned out. This supports more consistent follow-up and better sales reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about QuickBooks Online is that certain features can be hard to navigate, especially when I’m dealing with more complex accounting tasks like correcting transactions or reconciling accounts. I’ve also found that some reports take extra customization before they show the exact information I need. On top of that, the subscription costs can add up as the business grows. Overall, it’s a useful accounting tool, but smoother navigation, more flexible reporting options, and stronger customer support would make the experience even better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

QuickBooks Online helps me solve the challenge of managing my company's finances efficiently and accurately. It allows me to track income and expenses, reconcile bank transactions, manage accounts receivable and payable, process financial reports, and monitor cash flow in one place. This saves time, reduces manual errors, and makes it easier to prepare financial statements, monitor business performance, and make informed decisions. It also helps me stay organized and maintain accurate financial records for tax preparation, budgeting, and regulatory compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there isn't much we dislike about Clearstream. Overall, any minor limitations have been far outweighed by the platform's reliability, ease of use, and the outstanding support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clearstream has solved one of our biggest communication challenges: reaching people quickly, effectively, and personally. Email open rates continue to decline, but text messaging allows us to connect with our congregation in a way that is timely and actually gets seen.

The platform has streamlined our communication across multiple ministries, reduced the amount of time our staff spends managing outreach, and made it easy to target the right audience with the right message. We've seen better event attendance, improved volunteer communication, and more meaningful engagement because people receive the information they need when they need it.

For our church, Clearstream has become more than a mass texting platform—it's an essential tool for building relationships and keeping our church family connected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would be nice if there was a way to add visitor information. I’d like to include select visitors - repeat attendees - of upcoming events the same way I can notify members, but without adding them to the directory. Seems like this would be a simple add for the dev team that would make a huge difference for churches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Gracely for instant communication without complicated phone trees and electronic payments. It lets me text the whole membership easily and quickly, making it simple to remind people of events or inform them of last-minute changes. We are in a hardcore growth phase now, and we often have workdays or quick meetings with very little notice. Gracely ensures that those are still well-attended without a ton of prep for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are still working out some kinks with our children's church ministry. Signing the children in and out without creating a new profile for them each time can be a bit of an issue. It would be great if there was simply a sign in/sign out platform or database that stores each child and the parent they're connected to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ChMeetings alleviates our communication challenges and is vital for our congregation's members. It’s user-friendly for both young and old, ensuring no one feels left out. The mobile app is amazing, enhancing connectivity across our community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest challenge is that Acumatica can be complex and sometimes requires too many steps to accomplish what should be a simple task. It also takes time to learn where information lives and how different modules and settings interact. More intuitive workflows, easier configuration, and clearer error messages would make it much easier for end users to adopt and use efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Acumatica is helping us centralize information and processes that were previously spread across multiple systems. It gives us better visibility into inventory, purchasing, sales, shipments, and financials, while creating more consistent processes across departments. This has made it easier to track issues, improve accountability, and make operational decisions using more reliable, real-time information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing as such. It's an amazing product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Multiple solutions combined in one product which includes accounting, cloud, e-commerce, document management and much more. It's a single point for multiple needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When we’re working with large volumes of data, we sometimes notice that Mekari Jurnal takes a bit longer to process certain tasks. This is most noticeable when we’re handling a high number of transactions or reviewing extensive financial records. Even so, the system generally stays stable throughout, which matters a lot for our day-to-day accounting work. We’re still able to manage our financial information without major disruptions, even when the dataset is larger.

Although faster processing would improve the overall experience, we value the platform’s reliability and consistent performance. For our needs, keeping records accurate and ensuring the system remains stable are just as important as speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mekari Jurnal helps us manage fixed assets and inventory more efficiently, while keeping our accounting records accurate and well organized. Having these functions in one platform makes it easier to monitor company assets, track inventory movements, and keep financial information up to date. It also reduces manual work and minimizes the need to handle data across multiple systems.

With clearer visibility into our assets and inventory, our team can review records more quickly and make sure the financial information stays consistent. Overall, Mekari Jurnal supports our day-to-day operations by simplifying asset and inventory management, helping us maintain reliable accounting records, and enabling better-informed business decisions.

1. Limited customization

Some users want more control over invoice/quotation layouts, fields, reports, and branding.

Some system-generated text cannot be completely removed or changed.

2. Advanced features may require a paid plan

The free plan has limitations, particularly around customization and document functionality.

Some users find the paid plans relatively expensive when they only need basic invoicing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Refrens is primarily solving the problem of scattered, manual financial administration. Instead of managing quotations, invoices, expenses, payments, customers, vendors, and accounting records separately—often using spreadsheets and different software—Refrens brings many of these activities into one platform.

The only thing I'm not fond of is having to set up a two-group registration for anything child or student related. We have issues getting the second form conpleted. When you'rel ooking at a registration of over 100, that gets daunting to track down parents and have them complete the second form (because they think they're done).

Having everthing in one place, easy communication tools, and a robust reporting system. Most ChMS will be heavy in one or two areas, but not all three. Additionally, Churchteams support is incredibly easy to work with and can provide solutions quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, everything has worked well for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

OnStage simplifies the organization of songs, avoids tedious PDFs, and enhances the live experience by allowing musicians to follow my screen without moving their hands from the instrument. Its ease of use allowed the team to learn quickly, saving time and improving our synchronization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I value FloQast's standardized month-end close checklist functionality, which is perfect for our busy quarterly tax-filing cycle. It lets us assign reconciliation tasks to our tax-prep team and clearly mark completed audit evidence, eliminating messy manual spreadsheets. Its overdue-task alerts are great for keeping our team aligned on client closing work. FloQast brought centralized close-task tracking we badly needed, greatly improving our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FloQast lacks built-in templates tailored for small-business tax-filing workflows. During our busy quarterly tax cycle, we cannot auto-populate tax-specific task lists for our client engagements. It also offers no native connection to our CRM, so client contact details cannot flow over automatically. Since our firm has no dedicated IT staff, building custom connectors is out of reach. We must manually input records, which introduces human error risk while we work against strict regulatory deadlines for audit packages and monthly tax submissions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To enhance FloQast's utility for small businesses, consider developing built-in templates for tax-filing workflows and establishing native CRM integrations. This would streamline processes and reduce manual data entry, minimizing human error and improving efficiency during critical tax cycles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use FloQast to streamline our month-end close, centralize tasks, and organize audit-ready documentation. It eliminates messy spreadsheets and flags overdue tasks. However, it doesn't sync with our CRM, so we manually re-key client info since we lack IT staff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is the reporting and customization options. Some reports and workflows can take a little time to set up or navigate, especially when you need more specific or customized information. Having more flexible customization and clearer guidance for advanced features would make the experience even better. The current reporting and customization options generally work well for day-to-day needs, but when I need a more specific report or want to tailor the workflow to a particular use case, it can take some extra time to configure everything.

I use Rillet to streamline accounting by reducing manual work and organizing financial information in one place, which simplifies reporting and tracking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DualEntry has no native CRA-compliant tax templates for Canadian corporate filings, forcing us to export ledgers and manually adjust figures for T2 tax returns. It does not support guaranteed Canada-based data residency, creating PIPEDA compliance risks when storing sensitive client financial records. Native integrations with popular Canadian tax-prep tools are missing, and their support team has limited practical understanding of Canadian tax-code requirements. Since it lacks Entra-ID single sign-on, we manage team access separately. We still manually cross-check outputs to meet CRA reporting and PIPEDA requirements. Compliance-related configuration was a challenge with no built-in Canadian-tax-specific settings, necessitating custom internal workflows for CRA reporting and PIPEDA client-data safeguards. Building these compliance safeguards took extra unplanned-for time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DualEntry removes manual double-entry bookkeeping by centralizing transactions and simplifying reconciliation. It organizes data and reduces time sorting records, although manual steps are still needed for CRA and PIPEDA compliance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Martus has very beneficial reports which allow us to drill down to see the details of transactions. It's very helpful to read the memos of transactions while reviewing budget-to-actual reports. However, the drill down option is not available from all report configurations. A P&L by month does allow drill down to details while the same P&L organized by department does not.

They are working on getting the notes left by department heads in the budget preparation process to roll forward into the next year. This was feedback from me and my team and they've taken it to heart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Access UBS is robust, some features could be more intuitive for new users, particularly for advanced investment tools. Additional integration options with external accounting or portfolio management software would also improve workflow efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Access UBS solves the problem of fragmented financial management by consolidating banking, investment, and account monitoring in a single platform. This saves time, reduces errors, and improves visibility into financial performance. For me, it has made managing multiple accounts and investments simpler, faster, and more organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I maybe have some reservations about how the reports are currently being presented. It would be beneficial if there were improvements in the presentation of reports, particularly with the inclusion of tutorials or features that cater to specific needs such as manufacturing accounts.
