Overview of Church Software

According to Giving USA, over $130B is donated to churches in the US each year--a staggering amount for what is typically considered a very niche market.  

Churches are not typically known as tech-savvy, but successful religious groups have embraced technology, and software developers have found their calling.

Over the last two decades, vertical software players have taken the themes and trends of horizontal technologies and customized these to the unique needs of the Church. Today, most churches have a web presence, online giving, and church management software (ChMS) at a minimum. The savviest churches also deploy digital marketing and online video capabilities, including live-streamed services.

Ravel tracks faith technologies across all US churches. Our customers use this data to inform their outreach, whether prioritizing churches with tech gaps or bringing an all-in-one solution to churches that currently utilize a broad product suite with less-than-ideal integrations.

Below are some of the technologies and other segmentation data that Ravel currently uncovers:
