Our take
MyShul scores well on documented coverage: CRM, invoices and statements, donations and raffles, recurring payments, zmanim and schedules, seating maps, a member app, kiosk and TV displays, and at Premium and above memberships, bulk invoicing, QuickBooks sync, accounting reports, smart forms, a hosted website and bulk email. Published prices are $179, $310 and $460 a month, or two months free on annual billing.
Two things in the vendor's own documents should be resolved in writing before any congregation signs. First, the pricing page describes a subscription, while the Terms describe no subscription and a 1% platform fee plus 3% on raffles; one of those is current and we could not tell which. Second, the Terms state that all data entered into the platform is owned by MyShul, LLC, and allow a temporary fee increase of up to 100% under a cost-recovery provision. A congregation's membership and giving records are its own; ask for that clause to be struck or amended, and ask how a full export works.
Note also that the September 2026 "11 synagogue software platforms compared" article circulating online is MyShul's own staff content recommending MyShul, and the homepage's "rated #1" and "4.9" claims link to no source. Yahrzeits, honors, school and cemetery are not evidenced on the pages we read.

Pricing model: Three monthly/annual subscription tiers plus priced add-ons on the pricing page; the Terms (effective 2025-12-15) separately describe a no-subscription model with a 1% platform fee on processed funds and 3% on raffles. The two documents are not reconciled on the site.. Terms: Annual billing = '2 Free Months' (annual_usd above = 12 x the annual-billed monthly rate). Terms: no fixed term; MyShul may suspend/terminate at any time; fees non-refundable.. Pricing page labels are internally inconsistent ('Everything in Essential' / 'Everything in Plus' name tiers that do not exist). Annual figures are the vendor's per-month annual-billing rate x 12.
