A good number of you expressed interested in an accounting and database software for small churches that is under development by some people I know of. Here’s an update from Dan Kelly, who’d like to have input “from people before the software is complete to ensure it meets their needs”:

We searched for over a year to find a simple accounting software package designed for small churches. We could not find one so we decided to build our own. We began by brainstorming about things that frustrate us about the current offerings: too complex, too many functions that I don?t need, etc. We have set out to create a product that overcomes those issues.

Our software engineers are cruising along and have made tremendous progress. We plan to have a product out this fall.

Before they finish the software I would love to hear some of your horror stories about your current software so we can avoid those pitfalls and create software that meets your needs.

Thank you for your interest and support for our project.
