FuneralHQ vs PlotBox

FuneralHQ is web-based software for coordinating funeral arrangements and related services. Its listed capabilities include online arrangements, obituary pages, and service scheduling, covering planning tasks and information shared with families. Providers can also manage pre-need arrangements, collect electronic signatures, and build funeral websites. The feature set therefore spans arrangements, scheduling, signatures, pre-need management, and web pages for funeral services. Web is the listed platform; no desktop or mobile app is listed. FuneralHQ is a paid product, with pricing available on request. The available features identify areas of funeral-service operations the software supports, but do not specify how the tools are packaged or how pricing is calculated. Providers considering the service will need to request pricing details. Its online arrangement and obituary-page capabilities are among the listed functions, alongside scheduling and pre-need support.

PlotBox is a cloud-based deathcare management platform for cemeteries, crematories and funeral homes, available on the web and iOS. It combines a searchable deceased-record database, plot inventory, digital cemetery maps and scheduling for burials, cremations and appointments across multiple sites. Its EverAfter tools let families search cemetery records, plan visits with walk-to-grave directions and view memorials online. Financial features cover invoicing, payments, receipts and trust fund management, and PlotBox says it can integrate with services including QuickBooks and C&J Financial. The software is modular: Essential and Pro include records, contracts, booking, mapping and EverAfter, while Enterprise adds finance and customized reporting. Work orders, CRM and documents vary by package, with some available as bolt-ons. PlotBox offers demos; implementation timing depends on the organization and complexity of its data. Pricing is on request. The maker’s certificate states its information security management system is registered to ISO 27001:2022 through March 23, 2028.
