Who is behind congrega?

congrega is built by a developer who is active in a congregation themselves. The platform is shaped from real, day-to-day use — in close exchange with the first congregations who put it to work.

Where is data stored?

It is your choice. With congrega Online, data lives on servers within the EU, GDPR-compliant and without tracking. With congrega Local, it lives on your own hardware on your premises — personal data then never leaves the building. Many congregations prefer exactly that.

Do I need technical know-how?

No. The platform runs in your browser — on a computer or on a phone. If you can write an email, you can use congrega.

What if the maps don’t fit my needs?

Every order starts with a free trial print. Nothing is charged until you’re happy with the result — otherwise there are no costs.

Can I cancel at any time?

Yes. Management is billed yearly and only renews if you want it to. You can request an export of your data at any time.

Does this work with OpenStreetMap data?

Yes. All maps are generated from current OpenStreetMap data — including street names, house numbers, and building outlines. Whenever the data changes, maps can be regenerated at any time.

How do I print the territory maps?

You receive a print-ready PDF at the correct scale. Print it yourself or order it from a print shop. Every order starts with a free trial print.

Which file formats can I import?

Existing territory data can be imported in KML, GeoJSON, CSV and other formats — typically from Google Earth, QGIS, spreadsheets, or exports from other tools.

Can we work entirely without the cloud and internet?

Yes. With congrega Local the whole territory management runs on your own hardware on your local network on-site. Day-to-day work needs no internet connection and no cloud service — personal data stays entirely with you.

What does the local edition with hardware and setup cost?

congrega Local is offered broken down by line item: license, updates and maintenance, preconfigured hardware, and on-site setup. Since hardware and effort vary per site, we prepare a custom quote — just drop us a short message.

Can we switch from Online to Local later?

Yes. Both editions use the same software, so switching is possible at any time. Existing data can be carried over, so you can move from the online solution to the local edition without losing anything (and vice versa).

How do I migrate from Excel?

Existing territory data can be exported as a CSV file from Excel and imported into congrega. KML and GeoJSON imports also work. We actively help with setup.

Can several people work at the same time?

Yes. congrega is multi-user — overseers, territory servants, and (optionally) publishers work concurrently on the same up-to-date data.

What happens to past completions?

They stay in the territory history. You can always trace who had a territory and what was covered.

Can I model districts and regions?

Yes. Territories can be assigned to districts or regions, and reports can be filtered by those groupings.

Manage Territories Digitally

Assign, return, record completions, surface overdue territories — all in one place.

Managing territories digitally saves you from paper trails and duplicate bookkeeping. congrega covers every step around a territory: create, assign to publishers, record completions, return, trace the full history. Overseers can see at any time which territories are overdue and where action is needed.

Assignments and returns

Territories are assigned with one click — either digitally (the publisher sees the territory in the app) or with a printed map. On return, completions are recorded: what was covered, when, with what outcome. No Excel sheets, everyone on the same data.

Overdue territories at a glance

If a territory has been out too long or hasn’t been worked in a while, it shows up automatically in the overseer overview. Nothing slips through the cracks, and overdue territories can be followed up on purposefully — no more sifting through cards by hand.

Complete history

Every territory has a full history: who had it when, what was worked, what notes were taken. That helps with handovers between overseers, onboarding new territory servants, and understanding which territories get covered more or less often.

Bring publishers on board — optional

Publishers can get their own login to view their territories digitally and record completions directly. Possible, but not required — many congregations start with logins only for territory servants and overseers.
