Easy to implement online giving

We began looking at the possibility of online giving in 2019 and after reviewing all the major online giving platforms we decided to implement Tithe.ly in February of 2020 and we have been very please in the increase of giving and the greater consistency in giving we have seen as a result of using Tithe.ly

PROS

Tithe.ly has been easy to integrate with our existing website. Even our less technologically savvy members have found it easy to use. It has helped increase our giving over the past year.

CONS

Customizing was a bit difficult to figure out initially especially resizing our logo and getting the colors to match our branding.

Reason for choosing Tithe.ly

Low up front cost, comparable fees, and easy onboarding were why we chose to use Tithe.ly.

Great Company!

Having giving, sermons, and registration available right on the app is awesome! It has a lot more features then planning center had so paying double for what we paid them monthly seems worth it!

PROS

Building the church app and website with them was such a smooth process!

CONS

I do feel like there are some glitches and didn't love that I had just learned all of the tithe.ly software and then had to learn the elvanto as well.

Reasons for switching to Tithe.ly

People were complaining about having to give via paypal, in light of some recent scams through there. An old staff member was hosting our website and it needed a fresh new look. I wanted to bring our church into this decade so initially found Tithe.ly because I was looking for an app design. Since they offered the church management software as well, it was great that we could cancel Planning Center!

Vendor Response

Thank you Elizabeth! We're so happy to hear that you are served well by our Tithe.ly team, and also enjoy using the product.

You get what you pay for

It does take money out of our parishioners' accounts. Our treasurer manages to generate giving statements using the data available, although they cut and paste it into Excel. But the bugginess of the software concerns me about security, given that they hold sensitive information about both our church and our donors. When our donors experience difficulty using the product due to how buggy it is, that reflects poorly on our organization. Shopping for a better alternative.

PROS

Once automatic donations are set up, they consistently do what they were intended to do. For a small, budget-conscious church this can be an option.

CONS

UI is extremely buggy. I've worked as a software developer, and the lack of error handling for the most basic of features gives me second-hand embarrassment. I am the one who set up the software and am also a user. Doing something as simple as attempting to change my credit card had me very frustrated. I can't imagine how difficult this would be to use for someone not tech-savvy, which is most of our users. If the dashboards are this buggy, I have serious concerns about trusting this company with sensitive data and I'm currently looking into other recommendations for our church. Another reviewer gave a comprehensive and detailed list of problems with this application. Since I am not an admin, I will not attempt to do so here, but anyone considering this software should browse the reviews and take note of the poor ones.

Easy and worry free

Tithely has been great! Their customer service group is the best - any time I have a problem I reach out and they help to take care of it.

PROS

What I like the most about Tithely software is that it is easy to navigate, easy to use, easy to figure out even from the first approach. It looks clean to visitors and it is simple, allowing our guests to return over and over problem free and allowing our church staff to navigate the software without a struggle.

CONS

Sometimes Tithely comes off as too business oriented. They offer free media which connects you to the "church/religious" side of things but then other business websites offer the same through an internet search. Their website design, app structure, and financial software is competitive and works well its just that in a ministry we connect so much to things of the heart and the software design seems more for business - then again their design is through what churches have asked for so maybe churches have become more about business then about the things of the heart.

Reasons for switching to Tithe.ly

We wanted something that was easier to navigate.

Vendor Response

Thanks Pastor Geoff ! Glad you are enjoying the many features, and that it's user friendly for visitors!
