ChurchTrac is the best Breeze alternative.
Here are a few reasons why...
Why Choose ChurchTrac?
More Affordable for Every Size Ministry
Breeze has a "simple" flat rate of $72/month for their Breeze Basic package, or a bundle and save package for $119/month that provides additional features. But
simple does not mean
affordable.
While Breeze has one flat-rate price for every ministry, it's not affordable for most churches.
At just over $800 a year, it puts heavy pressure on the budgets of churches and ministries with less than 250 people.
Additionally, Breeze has already increased their prices 33% following their recent buyout, and we expect them to do so again.
Or they will encourage you to migrate to a more expensive product as Breeze is phased out in the coming months.
ChurchTrac not only has more features than Breeze,
the price of ChurchTrac
is typically a small fraction of what Breeze would charge.
In fact, Breeze costs TEN TIMES more than ChurchTrac for smaller ministries.
At ChurchTrac, we believe smaller churches should pay less. We're committed to supporting the local church, ensuring no church pays more than necessary.
Our pricing allows you to customize your plan based on your church size and desired features without overspending. The software you choose should bless your ministry, not burden it.
On average, mid-sized churches switching from Breeze ChMS to ChurchTrac save 40% a year. Smaller churches save even more,
making ChurchTrac the #1 most affordable alternative to Breeze. And if you're a larger church or if you want the
ChurchTrac's "Unlimited"
name option, your monthly cost tops out at the same price that ALL Breeze customers pay, regardless of ministry size.
When you take into consideration the fact that Breeze does not include worship planning or accounting features, your savings with ChurchTrac are even bigger.
"ChurchTrac had by far the most options included for the price. And their price is at least
half of most companies. The monthly subscription includes not only management tools for people, but also accounting as well
(which is a huge bonus)."
-Pastor Jerrod @ Harlowton Faith Chapel (Capterra Review)
User Friendly Interface
ChurchTrac puts ease of use at the forefront, making it simple for churches of all sizes to stay organized and connected.
With an intuitive interface and straightforward navigation, users can quickly access the features they need without feeling overwhelmed.
Whether it's managing volunteers, tracking attendance, or handling contributions, ChurchTrac's design prioritizes user experience,
ensuring that even those with limited technical skills can get started without a steep learning curve.
Support and Training... Included
Sure, Breeze has some resources to help you learn and use their application. Breeze offers free support which consists of a knowledgebase,
a handful of videos in Breeze University, and an online ticket system. Continued support from Breeze is questionable with their recent buyout from a larger firm.
With most software company acquisitions, support usually takes the backseat of priority.
With ChurchTrac, support is priority #1. We take more of a hands-on approach. ChurchTrac is intuitive and super simple to use, but we still offer training videos,
live webinars with Q&A, and even one-on-one workshops. Plus you can schedule a call with a member of our team.
While many companies take a day or more to reply to your questions, our team typically handles most support incidents in less than 1 business hour.
Our support goes deeper than software.
We see every church as a ministry partner, not a customer. Any way that we can help your ministry succeed, we're here for you.
Whether it's helping you craft a better safety protocol for your Children's Ministry, or simply praying for you and your
family...that's what we do.
Built-in Accounting and Budgeting Tools
With Breeze, you can track giving, but you can't keep track of finances. Instead, you have to purchase (yet another) third-party tool.
ChurchTrac gives you the ability to track all of your income and expenses, and to plan your spending using budgets.
You can also print checks, reconcile transactions, import bank statements, and generate easy-to-understand financial reports.
Since ChurchTrac is a true Fund Accounting program made for churches, you can easily track and manage your
fund balances. Volunteers love ChurchTrac's simplicity; accountants love the features.
Worship Planning
While Breeze gives you the option to integrate with other companies for worship planning, ChurchTrac has worship planning features built-in.
With Breeze, you'll need to pay for another (expensive) service to have access to worship planning tools. This makes Breeze's actual cost even more expensive. Using ChurchTrac for this one thing
could save your ministry hundreds of dollars every year.
ChurchTrac gives your worship leader the tools to plan services, schedule teams, and manage their song library. ChurchTrac also features
chord transposing, scheduling reminders, and an integration with SongSelect.
Church Connect: Website, App, and Member Portal All in One
ChurchTrac is the only church management solution that includes both a website and app... at no extra charge!
Church Connect, the member-facing side of ChurchTrac, lets your congregation install the app on Apple or Android devices in seconds by scanning a QR code.
It integrates seamlessly with ChurchTrac, linking members to their profiles upon registration, or allowing quick additions of new members.
They can view and update their profiles, ensuring your database stays current, and stay updated with announcements while submitting prayer requests or other information
to leadership through our custom form builder. Church Connect also features self-check-in, allowing members to mark themselves and their families present upon arrival.
Members can give online, view their giving history, and print contribution statements through Church Connect, with donors able to set up ACH or text giving.
The app displays upcoming events, enabling easy registration. Volunteers and band members can respond to service invites or indicate their availability,
while musicians can access worship outlines, sheet music, and chord charts—all from their mobile devices.
We Love the Local Church
ChurchTrac has been around since 2002, growing to be the preferred choice of most small and mid-sized ministries.
We focus on the needs of churches first. While many companies only care about larger
churches,
we decided to be different.
We're a team of people that have firsthand experience in leading worship, teaching, preaching, church finance, children's ministry, and more.
We serve in the local church, so we know the needs of the local church. Our experience helps us to serve you better.
Your ministry is our ministry. Your mission is our mission. We love to help churches, and we often get feedback like this:
And this...
Your ministry is our ministry.
