“Ability to set up liability accounts; integration of accounts; automated entries; ease of import and matching to written records; bank synch.”
PB

Patricia B.

Administrative Pastor

“It's so easy to search on any field in my ledger. Plus, the search results stay current until I remove the search criteria. For example... if I'm searching for a specific vendor and a specific job that was done by that vendor, I can narrow down the register to only show me that specific vendors transactions, go through each transaction without losing the search results. Other software that I used would default back to the whole register and I'd have to do the search again and figure out which line item I already looked at!”

Fund accounting

Reviewers indicate that ChurchTrac's Fund Accounting is tailored for church operations, allowing them to track multiple funds such as general and building funds separately. They find it helpful for making informed purchasing decisions and maintaining organized financial records. Users appreciate the ability to create detailed reports and manage funds with ease. They also value the flexibility in tracking designated funds and the user-friendly interface, which simplifies fund management for non-accountants. Of the 44 ChurchTrac users who gave detailed accounts of their use of Fund Accounting, 95% rated this feature as important or highly important.

See related user reviews

“It is helpful to be able to put designated funds into the correct fund so that we can properly make payments using those funds that were designated for that purpose rather than putting everything into a general fund and not keeping up with where exactly the designated funds are going. The most difficult part is making a transfer from a general fund checking account into a building fund checking account and putting in a transaction to move the money from the general fund into the building fund.”
CJ

Callie J.

Secretary

“Accounting system is setup like a church operates versus a business. Not all accounting programs are configured in this way or are easily modified to operate with multiple funds like general funds, building funds that need to be tracked seperately.”

Brent A.

“Cannot beat the accounting portion. I run a general fund and can easily run any reports I need. I am currently doing my end of year balancing bank stuff. You cannot beat being able to print out just what you need in an easy to understand format. I also use the budget portion to plan for the year and keep up when bills are due. Also it is handy that you can enter regular stuff to pay and it saves it.”

Charles J.

Pastor

“One of the standout features of Church Trac is its financial accountability tools. It allows us to easily track and manage our church's finances, ensuring transparency and accuracy. The software provides comprehensive financial reports and makes it e”

“We are constantly communicating with our people in the church whether it is an upcoming group meeting, prayer request, special meetings, daily devotions. Critical for our staying in touch with our church family. During COVID my wife and I began doing a 5 minute video devotion that we send a link to each morning to those who have cell phone. We have over 150 people each day that receive that and are blessed. We could not do that any other way.”
CM

Charles M.

Pastor

“As our legacy website is a pain to update, we are very impressed with what ChurchTrac Church Connect gives us to augment our connection to our members. To develop a system so mobile friendly, flexible and easy to use by the office staff and Pastor was way beyond what we could do ourselves. The Twilio integration allows us to text message selected groups or the entire membership instantly.”

Integration rating: 4.7 (25)

Gives our congregation an easy online giving option which is automatically entered into ChurchTrac accounting.

This will be used at a later time but we have signed up for it I believe. If not, we will at some point.

We get the online donations in a matter of days, as opposed to at the end of the month.

We use them for our online giving and Churchtrac works seamlessly with them.

Messaging. We received grant of $500 to begin our access. Twilio takes care of verification of numbers and obtaining recognition (not spam) so our people actually get the messages.

I use twilio integration to send information out to church members at least once a week.

The option to text the congregation at an affordable rate is a nice feature.
