Do You Offer Professional Services to Help Set Up Church Metrics?
Since Church Metrics is a free platform, we do not offer paid setup or professional onboarding services.
Instead, we provide a robust set of self-service resources:
Help Center – Step-by-step guides on every feature
How-To Videos – Walkthroughs for setting up accounts, adding service times, and creating reports
Getting Started – A beginner-friendly section to guide you through setup and core features
Do I Need Technical Skills?
Most users manage their accounts without any coding or API knowledge.
API access is only needed if you want advanced integrations (e.g., syncing with Planning Center or creating highly customized reports).
Coding skill is required for the used of the Advanced Report Editor, which uses the Liquid scripting language.
Can I Schedule a Call to Learn About Church Metrics?
Unfortunately at this time we do not offer live demos, scheduled calls, or one-on-one training. Instead, we encourage you to explore our help articles, and if you need help you can always reach out to an agent through our live chat by clicking the chat bubble in the bottom right corner of your screen!
Even if you haven’t created an account yet, you can access these resources to preview how Church Metrics works and see if it fits your ministry.
