Planning Center
Planning Center is a suite of web‑based applications designed to help churches manage people, events, giving, volunteer scheduling, and more. Operating as a commercial software company, it offers modular tools—like Services, Check‑Ins, Giving, and Groups—that integrate into a unified church management platform. While widely adopted for its ease of use and robust features, it functions within a profit focused business model rather than as a nonprofit ministry initiative. Churches should evaluate whether their ministry data could become dependent on—or locked into—the vendor’s structured commercial ecosystem, limiting flexibility if they later wish to migrate.
