Our verdict on Church Windows
Church Windows is church management software for churches of different sizes and denominations. It brings membership, group and class management, attendance, event reporting, scheduling, donations, accounting, payroll, and child check-in into an integrated program. Membership and Scheduler support individual and family records, visits, attendance, event duties, directories, custom reports, labels, and data exports. Donations handles pledges, giving reports, and electronic-giving imports, while Accounting provides fund accounting and financial reporting. Payroll includes payroll checks, tax forms, and electronic filing through Aatrix.
Pricing is organized around individual modules and access formats. The 1 Module Standard Desktop plan costs $19 per month and includes software updates and support. The 1 Module Standard Web plan costs $69 per month and adds remote-access Web format, with updates and support included. The 1 Module Standard Desktop Annual plan costs $205 for one year and includes a desktop subscription, updates, and support. The published plans show that pricing varies by module count and support tier, so churches assembling multiple functions should compare the configuration they need rather than treating the entry price as a complete-suite price.
Church Windows fits organizations that want substantial desktop administration, especially where accounting and payroll sit alongside membership, giving, attendance, events, and volunteer scheduling. Its Windows and web formats support different access needs, while integrations and related modules include KidCheck, Vanco Faith, Aatrix, Membership, Scheduler, Donations, Accounting, and Payroll. KidCheck supports childcare check-in synchronization. Churches seeking a broad administrative system with financial depth should consider it; churches prioritizing a documented mobile app or a simpler, narrower tool may prefer an alternative.
