Capterra is a very useful software review site that has beefed up their church management software (ChMS) review listings, articles, and helps for churches over the past few years. Companies do pay to be listed on this site, like many other review sites, however, users are free to post reviews and comments. Some church software companies have over a hundred user reviews, making it very helpful for churches to take a peek into how the software is valued by its customers.
This recent infographic lists the top 20 most user-friendly church management software solutions. While user-friendliness might not be the most valued feature, user interface (or UI) plays a big role in how much churches utilize the software they purchase.
To make the most of your ChMS, it is important to select a software that everyone on staff (or volunteer users) can easily figure out how to access and implement the features most critical to their church's needs.
Below is Capterra's top 20 most user-friendly ChMS list which includes:
- ChurchTrac

Totally missed Church Community Builder. Way easier to use than Fellowship One and definitely great for managing small groups.
Agreed! Church Community Builder is a great church management solution for churches. I’ve used it and worked with the company in the past. They are top notch.
