Stream Recap: Summer Training Summit 2025

If you didn’t get a chance to tune in, Dan and I hosted our fifth ever training summit last night. We invited participants from around the world to join us for an evening filled with challenging questions, powerful insights, and tons of laughs. Here are a few noteworthy questions from the evening, along with our answers to them.

When is the next version of EasyWorship releasing, and what can we expect from it?

The next major release of the software (EasyWorship 8) is in its FINAL stages of development. We don’t have a finalized release date as of right now, but we will 100% let everyone know as soon as we do. As far as what is included, EasyWorship 8 will feature a Mac version, an updated UI, several bug fixes/stability issues, and more.

Why would someone choose EasyWorship instead of a free program?

This is a question we get often. I can confidently say that EasyWorship is THE most cost-effective software on the market for churches. Products that are free lack ongoing support, feel incomplete, or are missing the mark on stability necessary for a live-service, high-stress environment like Sunday mornings. EasyWorship offers the best, most reliable solution for churches on a shoestring budget, and our support is second-to-none.

What is the EasyWorship Premium Media Subscription, and how is it different than the Basic Subscription?

EasyWorship Premium includes everything that the basic subscription does: full access to a campus license of the software, unlimited support and onboarding, and all updates to the software in perpetuity. But it also includes unrestricted access and downloads to our Premium Media Library (Which you can browse here). Our library includes TENS OF THOUSANDS of pieces of incredible content from producers around the world. You can save your church tons of time and money by downloading a few (or more) pieces a week and popping them right into your schedule with our Premium Media Integration (See more about that here).

How do I get access to the EasyWorship 8 Beta test?

If you are interested in testing out the latest (and soon to be greatest) version of EasyWorship, you can access it through our users group on Facebook or our community forums. Please keep in mind that it is a BETA, which means the product is incomplete and not representative of the final build.

If I have a one time purchase license of an old version of EasyWorship, will I lose that license eventually?

You will never lose access to your old version of EasyWorship’s one-time-purchase license. However, versions older than EasyWorship 7 (e.g. EasyWorship 6, 2009, etc.) are no longer supported by our company, so we cannot provide any assistance if you have hardware or software issues on those products. The reason for this is that there may be hardware conflicts with older versions of the software with newer operating systems or computer hardware that we have absolutely no control over.

The surest way to avoid having issues and ensuring the best possible experience with EasyWorship is to subscribe to the latest version of EasyWorship through one of our subscription plans. If you have purchased EasyWorship in the past, please let us know and we would be happy to supply a discount to make sure that your church is getting access to the best, most reliable, and cost-effective presentation software on the market.
