It's a little awkward to block out multiple days in the calendar that aren't consecutive.

It is the best software out there for planning a service. I absolutely recommend to anyone with the budget to afford it.

Overall, we are very pleased. However, they could be more responsive to our concerns about customization.

Great solution for coordinating members to serve, great way for our musicians to communicate and prepare for leading music on Sundays, and an app for giving that our members feel comfortable using.

We have been blown away with all the functions available even on the free plan. It's so well-made, very easy to use and the customer service is very responsive and friendly.

Planning center is such great tool to inform and prepare volunteers in advance so that they can perform to the best of their ability.

My main complaint about the product is that it is difficult to create teams Volunteers and the service planning tool is awkward when applied to children’s ministries.

As a user i several times had problems with logging in, as system did not recognize i was registered by admin  twice, with the same email. So it is running 2 profiles with the very same attributes.

Customer Service is incredible. Fun, loving people want to help your church minister to and reach more people.

I love the ease of use and beauty of this product. It makes my life very simple.

Tech support has been very helpful and overall, very pleased with this product.

I often struggle to find what I'm looking for. It's difficult to navigate and can be frustrating at times.

I love that Planning Center has the ability to keep large groups of people/staffs on task and well aware of what is going on. I also love all the customizations you can add to it.

Overall, I think Planning Center is a good product...when you figure something out and it does what you want it to do, it's amazing.

I love how easy it is to use and share with others. It's ease of use is so simple that it takes little to no time to train others how to use it.

Planning Center is super easy to use, very first time user friendly and easy to train new people on.

Overall, for the price, this software is a fantastic solution for small to mid-size churches.

I enjoy that I have the ability to play audio files in the background. This is a huge advantage when driving, which I do a great deal of.

Overall, it is working great for us. There are a few things that are tricky, but it was easy to learn and the functions they do have work great.

I love how easy it is to use and set up your worship service. I also like how my team members can see anything I would like them to see.

The only thing i can think of is there is no undo option. When someone accidentally makes a change, I haven’t found a way to recover it.

It is affordable, easy to use, and they have excellent customer service.

It's just getting to that point which is the pain for the majority of the time.

Planning Center is price friendly and versitile, has an excellent mobile app, and integrates well into many other software titles.

Using the Forms allows me to seamlessly pull off a big event with great communication and acquiring the needed information from volunteers.

The staff is great about training those who need it, the interface is pleasing to the eye and it's easy to learn within minutes.

Great - they seem to be investing in more development...we need to be able to connect people more - and groups more and with ease and text one another and such.

PCO will integrate with literally hundreds if not thousands of other faith-based platforms making it super easy to connect it all together.

I love the ability to keep everyone organized into one program. Planning Center is great for organizing your teams and scheduling people to serve in different ministries.

It is annoying, but that is the only flaw I have found with the application.

Around Services and Check ins, Planning Center has been exceptional with customer service and helping us sort through issues. Their tutorial videos are also great.

Overall it has been able to help keep up with everyone and keep organized,  also the integration with other apps is very helpful.

It integrates well with other software we use (e.g. ProPresenter) and has an excellent free iOS app.

The only negative is that some of the features can sometimes be difficult for some people to understand how to use them.

The formatting of e-mails, especially with images, is limited.

Ability to send and track mass emails. Great for organizing church members.

So glad someone recommended TouchPoint to us. It is the best option we found and the pricing is VERY reasonable.

It is a great tool for congregants to know about other people in the church and for pastors to keep track of their congregation, all on one unified platform.

This is an excellent tool to help keep data and other information in a cohesive manner.

It is better than salesforce in my opinion. A great customer service.

I can't think of any negative feedback or experiences that we have had while we have been using TouchPoint.

We have tried and looked into other software and TouchPoint works best for us. The price is reasonable and it does most everything we need.

TouchPoint is a very good user-friendly application, very easy to use for beginners as well and very good customer support for a quick response. I was strongly recommended.

What I like most about this software is how it's connecting members together to better serve God's people.

It is really wonderful to use once you figure out how to do what you need. The other thing I don't love doing is figuring out how to build a search just the right way.

Web based, great tech support, love the reports.

The simple labeling and ease of navigation around the software has been huge in helping me get the information I need quickly and efficiently so I can keep moving forward in my ministry.

Filled with robust and customizable features and metrics. Extremely attentive customer support team.

This software made actually doing ministry awesome.

It is hard for me to think of something I dislike about TouchPoint. Just being nit-picky, I wish there was an option to enter birthdays without a year.

We are disappointed with the functionality for child check in and overall usability. It seems to be old technology with outdated interfaces.

I am disappointed that I cannot set up a communication plan for members and guests. The search  building feature seems a bit awkward.

It's user interface is so tough to learn, the customer service is horrible, and it is absolutely not worth the money.

Overall, it's very user friendly, very visually appealing, and modern looking.

Helps improve individual customer relationships and identify new business opportunities.

It's fine, but horrible customer service and takes months of trainer to use.

Programs used for online giving and background checks. They misrepresented themselves and there are better options available, but Toychpoint requires we use the bad companies.
