- You want published pricing and a trial you can start today, without scheduling a call.

What MissionTracker does well
Built by missions, for missions
Developed with Hope Gospel Mission since 2010, its workflows speak the language of gospel missions — nightly check-ins, program phases, class attendance.
An all-in-one suite for mission operations
residentTracker, volunteerTracker, hrTracker, and timeClock cover residents, volunteers, and staff — including HR and PTO tools most case management platforms don't attempt.
Efficient Training/Support
Hands-on, mission-specific training.
Flat pricing with unlimited users
One monthly rate, unlimited users and buildings (by quote), a 30-day trial — and a portion of every subscription supports Hope Gospel Mission.
Practical reporting for missions
40+ pre-built reports, a report builder, HUD CSV export, and customized PIT counts — plus a HIPAA Seal of Compliance earned in 2021.
Where we're different
Built for your whole community, not just your walls
Consent-based referrals connect your mission with churches, food banks, clinics, and county programs — 47 agencies coordinate in Collin County, TX.
Community-wide bed availability

Published pricing and a self-serve trial
From $100/month, every feature included. Start a 14-day free trial online today — no credit card; cancel anytime.

What We Do
A Comprehensive Technology Platform
More than a simple CRM - a Care Relationship Manager
You need a system built for nonprofits with decades of nonprofit experience. A business CRM for "customers" doesn't work for a nonprofit serving neighbors with unique needs.
Case Management
Everything about a person in one place — from first contact through outcomes — with the safety context your team needs before they walk into the room.
Programs & Enrollments
Structured services with goals, assessments and outcomes — so the work is consistent and the results are provable.
Placements & Housing
Match people to housing and placement programs, work the queue as a team, and keep them housed after move-in.
Shelter & Bed Management
Real-time bed availability, a reservation and waitlist your team actually runs, and check-in that takes seconds.
Street Outreach & Encampments
Built for the work that happens standing up, outdoors, on a weak signal.
Events & Distributions
Run a distribution, a clinic or a community meal — and have the numbers ready when it's over.
Resources & Referrals
The community's services in one directory, and a real handoff between organizations instead of a phone number on a sticky note.
Messaging & Inbox
One inbox for the whole team, and a way to reach a Neighbor that isn't a voicemail they'll never hear.
Surveys & Assessments
Ask the questions your programs and funders need answered, and see the answers add up.
Reporting & Insights
Reports anyone on your team can build — no support ticket, no upsell.
Automation & AI
Sensible automation that removes steps, and AI that reads what nobody has time to read.

Use the 14-day free trial alongside your current system — no credit card — and switch only when you're confident.
Common questions
Before you decide
Is Neighbor Solutions a good MissionTracker alternative?
For missions that coordinate with the wider community or run programs beyond shelter operations, yes — cross-agency referrals, community-wide beds, street outreach tools, and public intake you can embed on your own site, from $100/month. If you want software molded tightly to gospel-mission operations with HR tools included, MissionTracker is a genuinely strong choice.
Does Neighbor Solutions work for faith-based organizations?
Yes — churches, ministries, and faith-based shelters are a core vertical. Wiseman Ministries runs seven locations on Neighbor Solutions and cut reporting time in half.
How does pricing compare?
MissionTracker offers a flat monthly rate with unlimited users, with specific pricing by phone. Neighbor Solutions publishes pricing: from $100/month, all features included, with a 14-day self-serve trial. Both keep costs predictable; ours lets you see the number before you call anyone.
Can we migrate our data from MissionTracker?
Yes. Export your records via MissionTracker's CSV report exports and our team maps them into Neighbor Solutions during guided onboarding — run the free trial alongside before deciding.
Do both platforms support HMIS reporting?
In different ways: MissionTracker provides HUD CSV exports and PIT count reports; Neighbor Solutions offers HMIS integration support. Tell us what your Continuum of Care requires and we'll walk through it.
Is MissionTracker legit and safe for rescue missions?
Yes — a legitimate, well-regarded suite built alongside gospel rescue missions since 2010, with a HIPAA Seal of Compliance earned in 2021 and support customers genuinely praise. The question is fit, not legitimacy.
What is the best MissionTracker alternative?
For missions that want modern, mobile-friendly software with community-wide collaboration and published pricing, Neighbor Solutions is built closest to that brief — with origins of its own in a Dallas ministry serving the chronic homeless since 2010. Missions that want in-suite HR and time-clock tools may find MissionTracker hard to beat.
Why do missions switch from MissionTracker to Neighbor Solutions?
The reasons missions give us most often: ease of use for every staff member, reliability on a phone in the field, reporting depth — and coordination with partners beyond their own walls.
Can I try both before choosing?
Please do — ours is a 14-day trial that starts online with no credit card; theirs is 30 days by request. A real week of intake in each is the fastest way to decide.
