WordPress, plugin updates, hosting renewals, security patches — this is the reality for most parishes. It shouldn’t be.
Without Expanse
A volunteer manages hosting — and then moves on
WordPress plugins go out of date and get hacked
SSL expires and visitors see a security warning
Nobody knows the domain login — it lapses
The CMS is too complex for most volunteers to use
Mass times get out of date and nobody notices
With Expanse
Hosting, security, and backups are managed for you — always
No plugins to update — the CMS is maintained centrally
SSL is renewed automatically, months in advance
Domain managed and renewed for you — documented and safe
Any volunteer can update the site in minutes
Mass times, events, and news are designed to be kept current
