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).

When is a territory considered overdue?

That depends on the deadline your congregation sets. Once it’s exceeded, the territory appears automatically in the overview.

Do I see overdue territories per group?

Yes. The overview can be viewed overall or per group, so group overseers can focus on their area.

Are publishers reminded automatically?

The overview is meant for overseers to follow up deliberately. Automatic push reminders are in development with the mobile app.

Does this help with large congregations?

Especially there: the more territories in circulation, the more important an automatic overview that surfaces backlogs immediately.

Surface Overdue Territories — Overseer Overview

Automatic overview of overdue territories — overall and per group. Overseers instantly see where follow-up is needed.

The biggest risk in territory management is territories that are out too long or unworked too long — and nobody notices. congrega detects overdue territories automatically and shows them clearly, overall and per group. So no territory slips through the cracks.

Detected automatically

As soon as a territory has been out too long or unworked too long, it appears automatically in the overview. You no longer have to go through every card by hand to find a backlog.

Overall and per group

Overdue territories can be viewed for the whole congregation or per group. Group overseers see their area specifically, the coordinator keeps the big picture.

Follow up deliberately

Instead of blanket reminders, you can ask specifically where it’s needed. That feels more respectful toward publishers and keeps territory work moving evenly.

Nothing slips through the cracks

The overview ensures no territory is forgotten. Over time, that means the whole congregation gets through its territory more evenly.
