Transparency alternatives to Churchdesk
Other Church and community management vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Churchdesk. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 40 that differ from Churchdesk on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Churchdesk has 10 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Data location stated, Certifications named, Uptime SLA with a figure, HTTPS enforced with HSTS, No third-party tracking before consent, security.txt (RFC 9116), Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at Churchdesk” is the one that closes them.
