Features
- Web-Based
- It runs in your web browser — no installation is necessary for users.
- Open-Source
- The software itself is completely free (not crippled, so-called "lite" software) and the code is available for anyone to change and improve. SMI only charges for support and hosting.
- Online Directory
- OneBody ties in with your existing church membership database to provide appropriate information to members (and to others you give access).
- Social Networking
- Similar to MySpace or Facebook, the software allows churchgoers to connect online in ways that foster communication and growth.
- Groups
- People can join and create their own "groups" that allow people to connect in additional ways. The group can easily share email, prayer requests and more!
- Blogs
- Each user has their own blog for sharing information with others.
- Favorites
- Users can easily list their favorite books, music, movies, Bible verses, and more!
- Security
- Members are required to sign in with their very own password in order to view information about other people.
- Privacy
- The amount of information available to others is completely configurable per person. Any user can opt out at any time. Sensible defaults are selected for all users, showing just enough contact information to encourage communication.
- Anti-Spam Protection
- By default, no email addresses are made available online to other members. Instead, email communication is done through the site — never revealing the user's email address to the person contacting him/her.
- Protection of Children
- Parents must specifically grant consent to allow their children to be seen online and for them to be able to sign in and use the application. No one under 13 is visible by default.
