Shepherd Atlas vs. Tithely
Tithely is a church platform focused primarily on online giving and tithing tools, with some add-on administrative features for congregation management. Shepherd takes a different approach: multi-faith, smart by default, and priced simply — starting at $29/month versus variable pricing.

Why teams switch from Tithely
Tithely is primarily a giving and payments platform. Shepherd is a complete back-office — giving is one module among six, all included at one flat price.
Shepherd's smart automation goes well beyond what Tithely offers: personalized communication drafting, acknowledgement letters (USA), and engagement scoring.
Member and family records, attendance tracking, volunteer scheduling, sermon archives, and communications are all built in — no additional modules or integrations needed.
Multi-faith support means Shepherd Atlas works for your mosque, synagogue, or temple with the same depth as it works for a church — not an afterthought feature.
Starting at $29/month for a full-featured platform versus Tithely's module-based pricing, Shepherd Atlas gives you predictable costs as your congregation grows.
