Top reasons churches are moving from ChurchTrac to GraceBase.
ChurchTrac's mobile experience is clunky. Our mobile-first design works beautifully on phones and tablets.
ChurchTrac looks and feels outdated. We're built with modern design principles for an intuitive experience.
We ship new features every month. ChurchTrac's pace of innovation has slowed significantly.
Fast, friendly support via email, chat, and phone. No more waiting days for responses.
ChurchTrac was fine 10 years ago, but it felt stuck in the past. GraceBase is the modern solution we needed.
