There is a reason nearly every church or ministry uses them, and it's because it's highly functional, has many useful add-ons, and keeps things organized. On another note, the customer service team has always been helpful and kind in my experience. That goes a long way when you're stuck on a problem\! > > **Cons**: Would love to see more forward-thinking design. It is hard to find where you're scheduled to serve in the Church Center app/website. That design could be more effective, as well, having a calendar showing or something. I'd like to see my confirmed dates more prominently displayed. > > Planning Center is a highly effective tool for church management. It is easy enough that attendees can use it, while also being complex enough that the administrative team can do many things with it. ----- ### "Excellent Church Software" — 5.0/5 > **Duane** | *18 September 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Planning Center is a great resource for our church. It is easy to use, has many great features, and is cloud based meaning it can be used anywhere. The apps that accompany it are just as intuitive and user friendly\! > > **Cons**: Planning Center sometimes doesn’t recognize a name or email and will create a new profile. We’ve had several duplicates - some are easy fixes and others are more complicated if they are using the giving feature. > > A wonderful cloud-based software that accurately keeps all records of our church membership. Our staff love it and use it regularly at church or on the go\! ----- ### "This is the worship planning software you are looking for." — 5.0/5 > **Andy** | *25 February 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Planning Center is the most robust, powerful, intuitive, and helpful way to plan worship services, organize team members, and communicate across ministries in our church. I love how the team is always innovating and listening to customers\! > > **Cons**: There is honestly not much to dislike\! Of course, we all wish everything was cheaper. There may be a few UI things that could improve on their apps, but for the most part, this is some of the best software I engage with daily. > > I have been a faithful customer since 2011. Several companies have tried to duplicate what Planning Center does, and no one can come close in my opinion. Design is top notch, customer service is responsive, and the features are so very helpful to me. This software is the lifeblood behind the administrative tasks in the ministry I oversee. ----- ### "rating of PC" — 3.0/5 > **sandra** | *9 January 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: the wireless printing of the name tags/mobile check in > > **Cons**: probably tech support. hard to get answer rt away > > overall it has been good. No major issues ----- ### "The Best All In One Church Software" — 5.0/5 > **Steven** | *19 June 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The user interfaces for all of their apps are intuitive, and it makes managing and communicating with our members quick and easy. > > **Cons**: There are certain tasks in the services app that feel a little redundant, but fortunately, they have videos that walk you through them. > > We love it and use it for our service planning, church database, forms, giving, app, communication, sign-ups, and registrations. ----- Page: 1 / 47\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/76708/planning-center?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/76708/planning-center) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
