Revolutionising Deathcare: Cemetery Management Software Explained

Learn how cemetery management software can revolutionise deathcare practices, from record keeping to mapping and finance management.


Deathcare professionals have a very difficult job that needs to be performed accurately, sensitively and efficiently under what can be extremely challenging circumstances. While many cemeteries still use old methods such as paper ledgers and excel spreadsheets to manage their records, mapping, documents and data - cemetery management software can revolutionise the way they operate by helping to resolve some of the very specific challenges they face every day.


Having the right tools at your disposal can make all the difference and those that progress to a cemetery management system are able to easily optimise, improve, enhance and grow their operation.


What is a Cemetery Management System? 


Cemetery managers and employees have a wide range of responsibilities, legal obligations and duties, from the handling of human remains and administration, to maintenance, record keeping and handling queries from the public.


For those still using inefficient methods and manual entry with paper records and excel spreadsheets, there is a better way to do things, and that is with an effective cemetery management system.


A cemetery management system is a specially designed digital solution that helps to reduce risk, increase efficiency and ensure accurate records that are safe, secure and easy to access. This software can cover everything from mapping, finance and contracts, to records, memorials, scheduling and more.
