ChurchTrac: A low-cost established church management system with published pricing
Ecclesia
Church management and member app built in Chennai for Indian congregations and diaspora churches
As of 1 September 2026, Ecclesia's pricing is not published; the vendor quotes on request. A church management platform from EinNel Technologies covering membership, giving, events and a member mobile app. Softwr lists it under Religion. Ecclesia is made by EinNel Technologies, available on Web, iOS, Android.
Overview
What Ecclesia does
Ecclesia is a church management system combining an administrative web application with a member-facing mobile app. It covers membership and family records, sacramental and pastoral history, contributions and tithe recording, basic church accounting, event and service scheduling, group communication and prayer requests. It is produced by EinNel Technologies, an analytics and software firm based in Chennai. The reason it exists as a separate product is regional. Nearly every established church management system is built around the US congregational model: weekly plate giving processed by card, small groups, and a US payment processor. Ecclesia is built for Indian churches, including denominations with parish and diocesan structures, sacramental record-keeping and giving patterns that are not card-first. For a church in India or a South Asian diaspora congregation, that is a meaningfully better fit than adapting an American platform, and it is the one fact that should put it on a shortlist it would otherwise never reach. The buyer is a parish or a small denominational group in India adopting software for the first time, usually moving off registers and spreadsheets. The trade-off is scale. This is a small vendor with a small installed base, no published pricing, limited integration surface and support in Indian business hours. A church outside that region gains nothing from choosing it over an established platform with a larger ecosystem.
What people use it for
- An Indian parish moving membership registers and offering books off paper for the first time
- A denominational body wanting consistent member records across several parishes under one administration
- A diaspora congregation whose giving and record-keeping conventions do not fit US-built church software
- A church that needs a member app for notices and prayer requests without commissioning custom development

The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Ecclesia.
- Pricing is not published anywhere, so a small church cannot budget without a sales conversation, which is a poor fit for the volunteer treasurers who typically make this decision.
- The installed base is small and concentrated in India, so there is little peer community, few third-party consultants and limited evidence of long-term product viability.
- There are no published integrations with accounting packages, payment gateways or presentation software, so data tends to stay inside the system.
- Support runs on Indian business hours from a single small vendor, which is a real constraint for diaspora congregations in other time zones.
- Feature depth is well behind established church platforms on areas such as child check-in, volunteer scheduling and multi-site campus management, so growing churches will outgrow it.

Questions people ask
Each answer names the page it came from, so you can check it rather than take our word for it.
Is Ecclesia a real, buyable product?
Yes. It is sold by EinNel Technologies of Chennai and is listed on the major software directories, though its footprint is small and concentrated in India.
Does it publish pricing?
No. Pricing is quoted by congregation size.
Does it handle online giving?
It records contributions and generates receipts. Card and UPI collection depends on what the vendor configures for you rather than a published processor relationship.
Should a US or UK church consider it?
No. Established platforms in those markets have deeper features and larger support ecosystems.
