ParishSOFT Launches New Features and Functionality for Digital Giving

At ParishSOFT, we’re always hard at work enhancing the user experience of our platform.

You’ll also notice our platform is robust and offers real solutions for reporting and managing gifts.

Recently, we launched new developments that advance our features and provide you with an even more powerful platform. Let’s check out what’s new and what’s staying the same. We’ll also review some common questions about the latest updates!
