The ECM dashboard: given this year and this month, average attendance, active members, and charts of giving and attendance.
The old way

Spreadsheets, index cards and sticky notes.

A list in one file, giving in another, birthdays on the fridge. It works, right up until the year-end letters are due, or someone asks how many visited last month.

ECM keeps all of it together, and does the typing for you.

Someone at a desk buried in papers, sticky notes and a crowded spreadsheet.
Know your people

A directory that actually knows your church.

Members, visitors and families, with addresses, phones, birthdays and anniversaries.

  • Add a whole family in one go
  • Search by name, phone, email or address
  • Everything about a person on one page
A member's page with their contact details, dates and a Contributions tab.
Giving

Year-end giving letters, in minutes.

Record gifts as fast as you can type, then print a letter for every giver, in your own words.

  • Your wording, your letterhead space
  • Itemized statements for each person
  • A spreadsheet for a mail merge
The Add a contribution form, where a gift is recorded in a few seconds.
Attendance and dashboard

See how your church is doing, at a glance.

Giving and attendance month by month, next to last year, with the birthdays and new visitors to care for.

  • Adults, youth, children and new visitors
  • Trends you can read in a glance
  • Visitors to follow up, anniversaries coming up
Charts of giving by month and attendance by month, each next to the same month last year.
Reports

Reports that print the way you'd expect.

Giving, attendance, a summary for your board, and member lists, ready to print or save as a PDF.

  • Weekly service report with every gift
  • Contact, phone, email and birthday lists
  • Deposit slips when you want them
The Reports page: service report, deposit slip, contributions, attendance, summary, member list and end of year.
Your team

Everyone who helps gets their own login.

Invite your pastor, treasurer, secretary and volunteers, as many as you like. Each person gets a role, so everyone sees what they need and nothing more.

  • Invite by email. They choose their own password
  • Three roles: Administrator, Manager or Member care
  • Member care looks after people, and never sees giving
The Users page: the people who can sign in, each with a role, and a form to invite another.
A Member care dashboard: attendance, members, birthdays and visitors, with nothing about giving.
Any device

Right in your pocket

Look someone up before you call, check an address, or record a gift from anywhere. ECM works on your phone, tablet or computer, with nothing to install.

  • Tap to call or email a member
  • Sign in with a passkey or your fingerprint
  • Your records stay private and yours

Questions, answered

Is ECM really free?

Yes. ECM is free for any church to use, with no limit on the number of members and no startup fees. It was designed for small, growing churches, and it is free for every church.

Who can see our church's information?

Only people who sign in to your church's account, and each church's records are kept separate from every other church's. Our support staff can look at your records only when they need to help you or keep ECM secure, they must use two-step sign-in, and we keep a record of it. We never sell your information, and there are no ads. You can add a second step to your own sign-in, with a passkey or an authenticator app.

Can we get our records out?

Any time. Download your members, gifts, attendance and lists as spreadsheets, or everything in one file, whenever you like.

Can we bring our people over from a spreadsheet?

Yes. Choose your spreadsheet, see exactly what will happen, and only then import. If you change your mind, you can undo it for the next 24 hours.

Can several people use it?

Yes, as many as you like, and it costs nothing extra. Each person gets their own login and one of three roles: Administrator, Manager, or Member care. You choose who sees what.

Can we keep giving private?

Yes. Someone in Member care can look after your members and attendance but never sees what anyone gave, anywhere in ECM. A Manager sees everything except your list of users and your church's name and address. Only an Administrator can add or remove people.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. ECM works in any modern browser on a phone, tablet or computer, so you can look someone up or record a gift from wherever you are.

What if we get stuck?

ECM has built-in help with step-by-step pages and search, and a Support page that goes to a real person, who usually replies within 24 hours. Your questions and our answers stay in one place.

What doesn't ECM do?

ECM is simple on purpose. It keeps your people, giving and attendance in order and prints the reports and letters you need. It does not take online gifts or send mass email.
