Managing money is difficult. It is perhaps even more difficult to manage a Church's money with a limited budget. In today's poor economy many churches are feeling the financial crunch. If you are looking for a way to save a few dollars, then maybe finding some free church accounting software can help. Many Internet sites offer free church management software. However, these offers can be misleading. The following is a list of web pages that offer free church software along with any potential hidden costs. The author is not the owner of any of these sites. The author only hopes to save time for those who may be interested in accounting software for churches. Churchradius.com Church Radius is an Internet based software site. They offer free church accounting through the Internet. In other words in order to access your accounting information you need a connection to the Internet. This is a great deal; a major drawback, however, is the fact that having all of your church's information stored on the Internet can be dangerous. Another drawback is that web-based software is frequently plagued with annoying banner ads. A necessary evil to provide the software for free. Sunday Software Sunday Software is a well known site for anyone serious about church software. Unfortunately the site doesn't actually make or sell any church accounting software. Nonetheless the site does have some great resources for churches. Churchtrac.com Churchtrac's software appears very user friendly. They also offer free software for small churches. In other words, if your church has less than 100 members the software is free. After 100 members the software is no longer free. Churchbizonline If you have already spent some time searching for free church accounting software, then you may have stumbled across ChurchBiz (they rank highly on Google's search engine). The problem is they don't actually offer any church accounting products. They offer a link to Open Office, but you can find that anywhere. Like most things in the commercial world, your church will probably have to spend some money to get quality accounting software. There are some free options, but quality varies. All the best in managing your Church's finances. The Article Author: Nate Jackson has his Masters of Accountancy and is an Elder in his church.
