About Connection Card

Connection Card Pro is a cloud-based church management solution that brings every administrative function into a single, easy-to-use platform. Designed for small to mid-sized churches and faith-based nonprofits, it replaces multiple disconnected tools—spreadsheets, attendance kiosks, giving portals, email services and more—with one unified interface that saves time, reduces errors and keeps your entire team on the same page.

With Connection Card Pro you maintain one clean, de-duplicated database of members, families, guests and first-time visitors. Digital guest cards capture visitor details in real time and automatically trigger follow-up tasks or group assignments, so no opportunity to connect slips through the cracks. Unlimited small groups, classes, volunteer teams and ministries can be created in seconds, with attendance tracking and demographic filters that help you connect people where they belong.

Online giving is simple and affordable. You can accept unlimited donations and event payments at nonprofit rates, generate year-end tax receipts automatically, and manage fund balances with true fund accounting. Transactions are reconciled seamlessly, helping you demonstrate fin...

Love the breadth of features that has allowed us to reduce costs and improve communication. Use it for membership management, payroll, accounting, web management, online donations, department management, expense reimbursement, and reporting.

Pros:

We have been most impressed by the staff. They are very responsive, helpful and eager to hear about our needs and suggestions. They have implemented several changes and improvements from our feedback.

Cons:

I don't have many complaints, they have been able to fix, improve or add all features that we have had trouble with. If I had to pick something that is still sometimes a problem, the app sometimes crashes and you have to reopen it. The one thing that would make it a 100% complete system would be the music planning capabilities that Planning Center has with links to CCLI.

Reasons for switching to Connection Card

Blackbaud CDMS was sold and wasn't a good fit for us. We looked deeply into roughly 10 different systems and found Connection Card Pro to be the best one especially for the cost.

Vendor Response

Thank you Lori for your feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to write this and appreciate your input! We absolutely would love to have a complete CCLI integration as well. Unfortunately, for over 8 years now, CCLI has shut their doors to any new integrations. We are continually hounding them for access to their API which other platforms were already using - as soon as they open this back up again, that'll be top priority on our list! :)

Lower Cost but Harder to Use

We seldom use it because it's challenging to operate. While this platform offers extensive customization similar to an IBM PC, it's not as user-friendly as an Apple product.

Thank you for your review Long. I'm sorry to hear about these issues. I know that our team worked quite extensively with you over a year ago to resolve some issues. All of your support requests and emails were answered in less than 2 hours. Some issues that you pointed out to us we fixed immediately. And we have not heard from you since. We have offered to provide free training sessions over Zoom on a number of occasions, and we have tons of easily accessible training videos and help documents, on our website and on YouTube. We certainly appreciate your feedback. We take all customer feedback seriously and we work hard to make sure that our platform is as easy to use as possible.

Pros:

Customer Service and Customization of platform to suit our needs and goals. Resolution to issues are timely and effective.

Cons:

We're one of the first clients making requests for certain functions and so obviously we need to lead out to communicate the needs. It does not offer email communication and analytic services/features compared to other business where that is the primary offering

Reasons for choosing Connection Card

1. Better Price Point 2. Ability to make customized requests. 3. Supporting a Canadian business 4. Supporting a business that gives attention to religious institutions and churches.

Reasons for switching to Connection Card

We had more ability to make customization requests and to lay the foundation for how we wanted our application system and experience to go.

Functionality

Pros:

I've used about a dozen different church management software over the past decade. Not only is Connection Card one of the more affordable options, it's also the best user experience. That is compounded by the fact that the team behind it are quick to make adjustments to meet the needs of our ministry. Seriously--what other software lets you put items on the development pipeline and actually sees it through that quickly?

Cons:

Honestly, anything that we struggled with was quickly adjusted and dealt with by the developers. Literally anything.

Thank you for your kind words Jeremy! We certainly appreciate your feedback and we love working with you and your team!

Great tool for our church!

Our church has used Connection Card for a few years and it is a great tool. We're a small church with a small budget, but this service has so many useful features and is one of the few that we found which actually fits in our budget. Really love the options to choose how the check-in and attendance tracking works.

Pros:

Cons:

We have some unique needs that don't fit well with almost every person management software out there...so having to work within the limitations is something we have to do no matter the program. The customer service that helps us adapt the software to our needs has mitigated this greatly.

So Far This Is Pretty Incredible!

While I'm still relatively new to this particular software, I've been a Pastor of a large church and another church plant before and I have to say that this is by far the best for the price and the ease of use and setup. So far I have really enjoyed this and can't wait to implement it to the entire church!
