Planning Center Check-Ins vs. Bloomerang Volunteer

Planning Center Check-Ins is an app to help you securely check-in children and volunteers into their classes, and track church attendance. With Planning Center Check-Ins, you can set up multiple check-in stations, use any iOS or Android device as a check-in station, send emergency text to parents and guardians, and print name tags with a matching code for parents to ensure a safe pick-up process.

Bloomerang Volunteer is volunteer management software purpose-built to help you recruit, retain, and recognize the volunteers who power your mission—all while staying seamlessly connected to your broader fundraising strategy. Automate scheduling with Roster Mode's, which uses AI-assisted matching to place volunteers in roles based on their qualifications, preferences, and availability, and cuts down on the manual admin work of filling shifts one by one.
