Resting Gardens

What is Resting Gardens?

Resting Gardens is cemetery management software that combines digital record keeping, interactive cemetery mapping and a public-facing cemetery website in one web-based solution. It is designed to help cemetery administrators, staff and volunteers organize burial information, maintain accurate plot records and make it easier for families and visitors to locate graves. The platform brings cemetery records and geographic information together so that operational data can be managed from a central environment while selected information can also be made available online.

A central element of Resting Gardens is the editable digital cemetery map. Cemetery teams can visualize plots, locate specific graves, identify available spaces and update the map as changes occur. This supports day-to-day administration as well as longer-term planning for future cemetery development. Historical records can be digitized and connected with the map, helping organizations replace fragmented paper-based information with a more accessible digital structure.

Benefits for cemetery organizations

Resting Gardens helps reduce the time spent searching through disconnected records and gives cemetery teams a clearer view of plot locations and availability. By combining management functions with an online map and searchable memorial information, the software can improve internal efficiency while also providing a better service to families, researchers and cemetery visitors. The web presence can further support communication by giving each cemetery a central place for important information and searchable records.

The solution is particularly suitable for cemeteries that want to digitize historical information, modernize their mapping process or improve their public online presence without separating these tasks across multiple systems. Resting Gardens is offered with subscription-based pricing and a free trial option, allowing cemetery organizations to evaluate the software in their own environment.
