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.

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).

What is the difference from congrega Online?

The software is the same. With congrega Online we host the application on EU servers; with congrega Local it runs on your own hardware on your premises, so personal data never leaves the building.

Do we need technical staff in the congregation?

No. We supply the preconfigured hardware and set everything up on-site. Updates and maintenance run via the license. Operating it only needs a browser — if you can write an email, you’ll manage.

Territory Management Without the Cloud — Self-Hosted

congrega Local runs on your own hardware on your premises. Personal data stays entirely with you — no cloud, no forced internet connection.

Many congregations would rather not store personal data — publishers, assignments, do-not-call addresses — in the cloud or on external servers. That is exactly what congrega Local is for: the same territory management as the online edition, but self-hosted on hardware on your premises. The data never leaves the building. We supply the preconfigured hardware, set everything up on-site, and handle updates and maintenance via the license.

Data stays on your premises

With congrega Local, all data lives on your own hardware on your premises — not with us, not in the cloud, not on external servers. The congregation keeps full control over sensitive information such as publisher data and do-not-call addresses.

No forced internet connection

The application runs on your local network on-site. Day-to-day work needs no internet connection and no cloud service. Only generating new territory maps from OpenStreetMap — if you use that — briefly loads map data; your personal data is not involved.

Hardware & on-site setup

You don’t have to deal with the technology. We provide a preconfigured device, install congrega on it, and set everything up on your premises. After that, territory management is ready to use right away — in the browser on the devices already present on your premises.

License, updates & maintenance

The license gives you ongoing updates and maintenance, so new features and improvements reach the local installation too. The price is broken down transparently by line item — license, hardware, and setup — and provided as a custom quote.
