Our verdict on Planning
Planning is cloud-based worship planning software for churches and ministry teams coordinating services, worship teams, volunteers, and service materials. Its workspace combines a drag-and-drop worship-flow editor with service notes, song management, centralized file storage, scheduling, availability management, substitute finding, and mobile web access. Teams can organize service information and notify participants by email, text, or Facebook across web, iOS, and Android access.
Its strongest differentiator is breadth across music and media workflows. The product integrates with CCLI SongSelect, Church Community Builder, Faithlife Proclaim, OnSong, LifeWay Worship, Spotify, YouTube, and Amazon. The song library supports search, import, export, and performance history, while file access reporting gives teams a central place for service materials. This combination suits churches that want planning connected to song and presentation tools rather than a scheduling-only system.
Pricing is organized by planner capacity. Solo costs $15 per month and includes 1 planner, while Deluxe costs $25 for 5 planners, Premium costs $50 for 10 planners, and Ultimate costs $100 for 1000 planners under annual billing. The same listed monthly amounts appear for monthly billing, with Ultimate offering unlimited planners. All plans include unlimited helper accounts, teams, services, and file storage. A 30-day trial is available without a credit card, and a conditional first-year offer is advertised for churches under one year old. Choose Planning for broad coordination and integrations; teams seeking a general free plan or AI features should look elsewhere.
