Passare

Overview

Passare is funeral-home software for managing cases, family arrangements, and business operations. It suits funeral home owners, directors, and administrators who want those workflows connected. Its breadth is compelling, but case-volume fees and an annual renewal term make it a substantial commitment to assess.

Key features

Passare Mobile gives staff a way to view, search, filter, update, and navigate cases away from the office. Barcode tracking, an AI Scanner for first-call and vitals information, case financials, messages, and tasks make it a broader mobile work tool than case lookup alone. Homes whose staff need those functions on the move may benefit; teams that only need basic remote access may not need the full set.

With Arrangement Guide, families can plan services online; their information syncs to Passare and creates a case. That link connects family planning to case management. The financial tools cover payments, inventory, check writing, and accounting, giving administrators operational functions alongside case work.

Passare says it works with dozens of funeral apps, including website, financial-reporting, and memorial-printing integrations such as CFS, MKJ, Federated, PFA, Make it! Personal, and Director’s Print Suite. Its direct QuickBooks Online integration syncs case financials as journal entries, automatically or manually, which gives homes a choice about how to handle that transfer.

Passare says it is SOC 2 and Standard SSL certified. Its listed protections include roles and permissions, two-factor authentication, encryption, and daily backups. Basic support includes phone and email support, training, and resources. Premium adds a designated team member, personal chat, a roadmap, check-ins, and customized feature setup; homes wanting closer support can weigh that against the additional plan cost, which is custom pricing.

Pricing

Passare subscription has custom pricing based on prior case volume, with fees tied to at-need, trade, and/or pet case counts. Annual adjustments based on case volume mean a home’s fee can change as its volume changes. Ask for a quote that accounts for the relevant case categories and expected volume before committing.

The initial subscription term is one year and renews annually unless the subscriber gives written notice at least 60 days before expiration. That deadline matters for homes considering a change: renewal is not simply month to month. Passare provides Basic support with phone and email help, training, and resources; Premium adds a designated team member, personal chat, a roadmap, check-ins, and customized feature setup. Choose Premium if that more involved support matches the home’s needs, and confirm its price as part of the quote.

Platforms

Passare runs on web, Android, and iOS. Its mobile tools are particularly relevant to staff who need case information and operational functions away from a desk.

Who it's for

Passare is a strong fit for funeral homes that want case management, online family arrangements, financial operations, and mobile tools in one platform. Homes that prefer separate tools, or that need a fee they can budget without regard to case volume, should compare alternatives and contract terms before choosing it.

Pros and cons

Connected workflows: Family arrangements sync into Passare and create a case, linking online planning with case handling.

Broad mobile toolkit: Staff can update cases and use barcode tracking, the AI Scanner, financials, messages, and tasks away from the office.

Business and accounting tools: Payments, inventory, check writing, accounting, and QuickBooks Online journal-entry syncing support financial work alongside case management.

Volume-based costs: Fees depend on case counts and receive annual volume adjustments, so budgeting requires attention to changing caseloads.

Annual commitment: The one-year term renews automatically unless written notice arrives at least 60 days before expiration.

Alternatives

Funeral Home Software is the category overview for readers who want to compare funeral-home products more broadly.

PlotBox is worth considering for homes focused on records, deeds, plot management, genealogy, contracts, booking, mapping, and memorials; its Essential plan includes those core functions, while CRM and documents are bolt-ons. FrontRunner is another paid web option, with pricing available by contacting the company. Afterword may suit readers who prefer published monthly prices and web-based plans, including an Online Planner and Essential Case Management. Funeral Manager offers pay-as-you-go core modules for care of the deceased and arrangements, making it a relevant comparison for homes seeking those modules. Gather, FuneralHQ, and Memcare are other paid, web-based alternatives.

Verdict

Choose Passare if your funeral home wants family planning, case work, finances, and mobile functions joined in one system. The connected workflows and broad operational toolkit are its strongest reasons to subscribe. Look elsewhere if case-volume adjustments or the annual renewal and notice requirements do not suit your budget or procurement needs.
