FrontRunner review
A focused web platform for funeral-home websites, obituaries and arrangement intake.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
FrontRunner is cloud software from FrontRunner Professional for funeral homes that need a public-facing digital presence. Its feature set centers on funeral-home website management, hosted obituary publication, online arrangement intake and digital presence tools. Small and mid-market providers can use it to present services online, publish obituary pages and collect arrangement information through a web experience. The product is best suited to organizations prioritizing communications and intake rather than a broad operational system.
FrontRunner uses contact-sales pricing, so prospective customers discuss commercial terms directly with FrontRunner Professional. The web-based, cloud deployment keeps access centered on a browser, while the published capabilities focus on websites, obituaries and online arrangements rather than a menu of separately described plans. Buyers should clarify which website, obituary and intake capabilities are included in their package and how the vendor will support their intended digital presence.
Its narrow focus is the main buying consideration. FrontRunner addresses the online-facing side of funeral-home work, but it lacks case operations, scheduling, payments and integrations. Funeral homes looking for a website, obituary hub and online arrangement intake may find that scope aligned with their needs. Teams seeking one system for operational workflows, transaction handling or connected applications should consider software built around those functions instead.
