The short version

  • Each has a real cost: EasyWorship subscription only rather than a perpetual licence, so presentation software stops when payment stops; IconCMO membership and accounting are priced as two separate subscriptions, so a church needing both pays for both
  • They diverge on capability: EasyWorship covers Presentation, IconCMO covers Member Management.
