Personalized ministry can't be "one size fits all."
Churches come in many different shapes and sizes. We’ve just about seen it all. That’s why we offer countless ways for you to personalize exactly what you need to support your type of ministry. Every personalized ministry solution starts with a ChMS cornerstone that can then be enhanced with any custom combination of tools and services.
The cornerstones of Church Ministry Software
You've got options.
ACS Technologies is a ministry development company that helps churches identify their optimum ministry focus, educate their teams for maximum effectiveness, and provide them the right tools to make it all work together to build the Kingdom. Our cornerstones either come ready to use, or you can fully customize your solution to meet your church’s specific needs.

Personalize Your Solution
Explore even more ways to make it your own.
Churches come to us because they need a trusted partner to help them develop their ministry—someone who can guide them at every step. Churches tell us it’s like having extra staff on the team who can help identify and optimize their ministry focus, educate their team for maximum effectiveness, and provide their regular staff with the right tools to make it all work together and build the Kingdom.
Personalizing your ministry solution means you can mix and match your options any time.
Realm® and MinistryPlatform™ are our cornerstone products. They provide a foundation for churches, denominations, and dioceses to build personalized ministry solutions to match their specific approach to ministry. Every ministry solution builds upon our industry-leading cornerstones and can be enhanced with any combination of ministry accelerators (i.e. tools that enhance the native capabilities of our cornerstones) or ministry extenders (i.e. companion tools that can be connected to our cornerstones). Best of all, every personalized ministry solution is assisted by real people with valued real-world experience, and we have developed multiple channels to share our knowledge with those in ministry.
