ChMeetings review

ChMeetings is the cheapest full system on this list. The Free Forever plan covers up to 50 people, and paid plans run from $12 a month for 100 people to $25 for 250, $40 for 500, $50 for 1,000 and $60 for unlimited people. Annual billing charges 10 months instead of 12. Every plan includes people management, a calendar, contribution tracking, ministries, a member portal, a church app, events and check-in, groups, a form builder and follow-ups. Paid plans add online giving and pledges, event payments, volunteer scheduling and worship planning, and accounting arrives on the Small plan. Data migration is free. The main extra cost is messaging: texts and voice messages started from ChMeetings are bought in packages, though you can send them free through your own phone plan. The interface covers a lot of ground, so it takes a little longer to learn than Breeze.
