Worklane vs Planning Center

Planning Center covers events & members. Worklane covers it as part of one system — Community + Check-in — on one bill, sharing one set of records.

What each one costs

Planning Center's price is its commonly published small-business tier, rounded, and it moves the week they reprice.

What takes it over

Community

Groups, posts, direct messages, events, courses, a member directory and points, on your own domain, with the same member records your CRM holds. Owned by you rather than rented from a platform that can change the rules.

And what else is already in the box

One Worklane plan
Booking & scheduling
Messaging & reviews
Marketing
Forms & documents
CRM & pipeline

Every one of these is the same login, the same contacts and the same bill.

What Worklane does not replace

1
Card processing fees

Stripe or Square still take their percentage — Worklane rides on your processor, it does not become one.

2
Your accountant and your books

Accounting is in beta and does not replace QuickBooks yet.

3
Company email hosting

Keep Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 — Worklane connects to it.

4
Message and call charges

Texts and minutes are metered at cost on top of the plan.
