OurChurch.Com launched its Custom CMS Express service in February which combines the feature-rich functionality of a CMS, the attractiveness of custom design, and the cost-savings of an automated solution. With Custom CMS Express, the client selects the design and features they want, and OurChurch.Com designs a customized, interactive website to the client’s specifications in as little as five business days and for a fraction of the cost of a traditional custom site.

We would appreciate your review of Custom CMS Express. If you’d like us to provide you with administrative access to a sample site, please let me know.
In His Service,

We’ve just release a hybrid management system called Church Butler. It’s been through a full year of beta testing and is ready.
It’s a hybrid system that is internet based but lets you work in a real desktop application (i.e. multiple windows, drang and drop, etc). There are also several features to help you share data and digital files simply, and communicate with your membership quickly.
This is a great resource! Thanks for putting it out there.
Here are two more that are more or less “standards compliant”.

Thanks!
There is also iMinistries. They have been around for a few years and are growing. I work for a large church in the Chicagoland area called Harvest Bible Chapel. It’s pretty cool because our admins run the entire site without knowing a lick of HTML.
I must confess that we do have a designer on staff, so that helps to keep our look professional, but you don’t have to have one to run with their system. They have a few basic free design templates that you can start out with or you can have a totally custom design created. That is what we did.
What is cool is that when we wanted to “freshen” up the look, we made the design, gave it to them and when it was “ready”, we just flipped a switch and the entire website was transformed. The site wasn’t down or anything.
Then there is their functionality. I think that if our admins run the site, it has to be pretty easy. I’m sure there was a learning curve in the beginning, but from what I can see…if you can use Word, you can use their system. You just got to know what buttons to push.
If you want to check out our site, it is http://www.harvestbible.org.
You should check them out. Their address is http://www.iministries.org.
[…] Other Options As is true with the larger CMS world, there are many more church-based CMSs. See, for example, this list. Although it’s a bit out-of-date, it gives you a sense of the variety of options. All that I found, however, are Christian-focused. It appears that the market is wide open for other faiths, including Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism […]
Anything new & standards compliant out there? Looking at Ekklesia 360… open to others…
