Pros:

Helpful to be able to group family members, merge individual accounts and also track giving, attendance and other reports you may set up

Cons:

Elexio has been an asset to our Synagogue

The former database I was using for ministry support was pretty outdated. We are considered by some a small congregation so outdated seemed ok. The reason why I first decided to make the change to Elexio was to utilize children's check in feature. However, that is just a small feature compared to how it has helped me streamline the office here. Our giving has gone up since initiating this product. I feel more confident that there will be less or no glitches in reprots. The customer service is excellent and the training has been very helpful

Pros:

It makes my job much easier. It has helped encourage giving by our members which is very important. I have a greater ease of accessing important information. It has been a time saver for me when I do our weekly giving reports.

Cons:

it is pretty easy to work with but some areas can be a little tricky. The support team is amazing and makes even the tricky parts make sense and they get me going again. What I like least isn't so much about the software but more about the training video's. Some are very long. I would prefer 30 minute segments. longer video's are difficult to sit through and can be a bit boring.

Reasons for choosing Elexio Community

It was recommended. I sat through an initial webinar about the product explaining benefits etc and was sold on it.

Reasons for switching to Elexio Community

because church pro is very outdated. I also found while doing year end reports that there was some inaccuracies. It doesn't look good when a member comes to you and says I gave this and that to this or that fund and while the amounts are right the funds were not even when I check to see if they were logged correctly. We also wanted a more updated system in particular we wanted something that would benefit children's check in. I went with Elexio partly because the church that we purchased our building from had used it and recommended it.

Elexio/Shelby Financials for a small/medium church

The Elexio church management side is absolutely wonderful. It is so easy to use, makes sense and reports are clicks away. The few struggles we've had with initial set up on the accounting side are outweighed by the program itself and the top notch customer service. I have said that some day when I have this program mastered maybe I'll apply to be product support for this company.

Functionality

Pros:

The Elexio donor statements themselves and the ease of use to print them are by far my favorite features. After learning to use Shelby financials, it is easy and thorough. There was a learning curve from what our old software was difficult but now that I've got it, I really like it. Reports are greatly improved and much easier for deacons to read.

Cons:

I felt that the transition between our former accounting program and this new program did not go well. I did not feel there enough included training hours to ask questions all the questions. A once a year national conference for training is offered but the travel expenses are cost prohibitive for a smaller Alaskan church.

Reasons for choosing Elexio Community

GAAP compliant and works for churches, no time consuming ridiculous go arounds like you must do for Quickbooks.

Reasons for switching to Elexio Community

Logos Accounting and church management are obsolete and are no longer supported.

Functionality

Pros:

Being able to easily search for specific people by location, relationship, and standing is so helpful. The integration with our website, customizable fields, and ease of automated processes makes Elexio Database a no brainer.

Cons:

While there are always features in any program that could be added, Elexio does a good job of listening to its clients about which ones take priority over others. I could always use even more customizable fields to more narrowly define people in searches.

Reasons for switching to Elexio Community

Elexio was easier to use, had more user friendly abilities, and the integration it offered far surpassed what we had been using.

Staff learned the software quickly and uses it everyday. Metrics are better and so is communication between ministries and within ministry teams.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Easy to learn, easy to use, interactions, workflows. Forms easy to create, email and embed.

Cons:

Children’s Check-in has never worked reliably on our very busy Sunday mornings (300-350 kids). Forms are easy to set up but using workflows to drop people directly into groups does not work as we expected.

Reasons for choosing Elexio Community

Easy to learn and use. Children’s Check-in. Metrics for giving and attendance. Cost.

Reasons for switching to Elexio Community

ACS was too complexed for our staff to use and Children’s Check-in was not reliable.

Elexio Database review

we use the database for recording giving. i used to have Logos software. Elexio is better and more intuitive - except for entering the donation - with logos - i used to be able to enter all of the information for one donor while in their record

Pros:

I love how easily the information is populated - hard to explain i love the simplicity of using it

Cons:

i do not like that i have to enter the donor's name each time - for example : Mary Jane gives me $100 - $20.00 for 5 different funds -- i have to type in her name each time to enter each fund's $20.00 - it would seem that once i enter - mary jane i should be able to stay on her record and make all entries at once.

we received a letter that you were no longer supporting logos and that Elexio would be the new system -- we learned of Elexio through LOGOS

Functionality

Pros:

Elexio was a good church database in terms of the church side. When we used it, the congregation did not like the online user interface so many did not sign up or even bother to log in to look at it after our initial roll out. That being said, Elexio has some of the BEST backend reporting. It is so easy to customize and make a report got literally anything I could think of. The customer service was ok, they did always answer and respond to my calls. I did use an older version that was on a network, so we had problems with crashing butI believe they are all online now.

Cons:

The crashing which was a problem a year ago but I do think they switched over to an online platform. The check-in was outdated. You could customize the look, but it still looked very old.

Solid database tool, that creates easy access to entire team

Elexio is a solid database tool that meets a major need in many ministries, allowing organizations to maintain good control and discretion over the information of their constituents.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

Powerful database tool that grows with your organization, and makes it easy to add members who have access to defined areas and information. Administration is fairly simple and sharing information with teammates is a breeze. Database allows you to easily track giving records and history, attendance, project participation an group connections (classes, ministries etc...)

Cons:

It feels a little clunky at times, and the end-user experience isn't as intuitive as I'd like. Having said that, I love the access teammates can have and especially that it's easy to regulate what each teammate has access to or not (like limiting access to financial giving records etc...)
