Watch your church engagement go through the roof!

We replaced our mobile app with Nucleus as soon as it launched because it better fit our mission of being a church for those not here yet. The mobile app required an installation...um...not guest-friendly! Our engagement and signups are through the roof and we use a lot less paper. Cannot recommend Nucleus enough...for any size church!

PROS

Nucleus makes it so easy to keep all next steps information at the fingertips of our congregation. Engagement and signups are through the roof!

CONS

I don't understand this question...

Reason for choosing Nucleus

Price, ease of use, functionality, customer support

Reasons for switching to Nucleus

Because an app requires installation which goes against our mission of being a church for those not here yet. It was also hard to update. Nucleus is accessible to anyone and is a snap for even our least tech-savvy staff members to use.

Nucleus will help your church excel!

Nucleus has helped our church engage with us online more effectively, we’ve been able to keep more of our online giving donations and we’ve seen more people sign up and register for events, volunteering, etc. because of the easy to use interface and tools and we don’t have to use long URL address is anymore we can simply direct people to our website where they can click the launcher and sign up for what they’re looking for

PROS

Since we’ve switched to nucleus, we have seen more people fill out forms and registrations online and the launcher installed on the website, invites people to take action whether it’s giving signing up for an event or volunteering. Also, we’ve seen an increase in our online giving as well as seeing more of that money, make it through because of their low fees and all of the fees are donor covered. I have not found one thing about nucleus that I don’t love.

CONS

As I mentioned earlier in the review, the only negative is, that you were not able to bulk update, or import data however, any user can login easily update their own data and anytime somebody filled out a form their information is saved so it does make bulk data collection easy

Reasons for switching to Nucleus

We wanted to have one central location on our website where people can go and easily find it in order to give sign up for events and engaged with our church through prayer nucleus offered all of that and more and we’ve been nothing but pleased with using it.

A good choice but costly for startups

Nucleus was the first company I used to set up our new ministry website.

PROS

I liked the fact that Nucleus was so easy to set up. I liked the ease of integrating options within Nucleus.

CONS

The thing that I liked least about Nucleus was the cost. As a small and independent ministry, the cost is everything. Nucleus proveds to be just too expensive for us.

Reason for choosing Nucleus

I chose Nucleus because it is specially customized for churches.

Well thought our website for churches

Nucleus has made my job administering our church website much easier why still minting a quality website.

PROS

Beautiful and functional websites for churches that have a great user experience and church staff can't mess it up.

CONS

I'm still on version 1 of the product and there is no SEO options, but I think they may have addressed that in version 2 that just launched.

Reason for choosing Nucleus

I loved their approach to the user experience and that you can't break the design.

Reasons for switching to Nucleus

I didn't have time to keep up with all the security and version updates.

Making a Volunteer Look Like Full-Time Staff

PROS

Nucleus makes professional appearance take seconds. In a rapidly growing church plant of 300, we need a robust system, but don’t have the ability to have dedicated staff. Nucleus allows my time as a volunteer to create a beautiful and powerful website. The integrations work flawlessly allowing max flexibility. Aside from the phenomenal website capabilities, the media provided allows our reach to exceed far what we could have ever imagined.

CONS

I have yet to find anything I don’t love about nucleus

Reason for choosing Nucleus

After using squarespace at our supporting church, it seemed like an obvious decision to stick with them. However, nucleus provided a system better suited for our ministry as it contained the necessities of a church website within itself opposed to having tons of extras added to make squarespace viable for our needs
