Chorus Connection is helping my community chorus get and stay organized! It helps my members find all their music and important documents all in one place, and it lets them access as needed, versus the management team having to spoon feed it to each individual. It's just a great tool for streamlining our administration, leaving more time to make music!

I like the the interface is pleasing to use. It is simple enough for non-tech-savvy users to access the important features they need. It is intuitive enough for administrators to quickly make changes and add content as needed, and it is powerful enough to handle lots of different tasks in an organized way that lets my chorus stay organized!

Nothing so far! It has been a breeze to use, and if I have an issue, Customer support really helps me understand how the product can work for me.

There is a lot of very good things that Chorus Connection offers. The setup and implementation of the software is sometimes confusing and requires a lot of assistance to get it working properly. I don't think we are using the software to its full potential because there are things that I just don't know how to do. But, the staff does spend time helping you to set it up. They are available to answer questions and to help. The staff is personable and friendly.

It helps to contain all of our membership, calendar, files, and music in one location.

Some things that should be simple are not. Example: in order to see specific music selections for an upcoming concert, the are many other things that must be done first, but which are found in various places throughout the software. This is the same with collecting dues, and pretty much all other more advanced functions. And, because you setup this stuff only a few times a year, it is difficult to remember everything that you must do to get it to work properly. Also, there are a few key things that are missing. There is no way to send out a mass text to the members. I would also like to see polling, being able to ask a question of the members and see their responses broken down by voice part. Example: Can you sing at 1st Lutheran, on August 1st? or Which committee meeting date and times work best for you?

I love that our members have a way to connect and to get information easily! I also love that it is easy to navigate and provide support for our group.

I wish this software "talked" to other software.... build that API! But I also wish it was more customizable, like the option to hide fields or easier to mass update information. Honestly, once you master Chorus Connection, you wish it could do so much more, however, it a great tool.

I am getting less enthused about CC. The concepts are great, but I need other things too, like a place to upload a video and be able to tell who watched it. The ability to assign kids videos to watch or assignments to complete. Integrate one note or something to help with the teaching side of what I do—the rehearsing and ticket side is great. And the billing is so frustrating I might stop my subscription just over that. I can’t adjust things easily.

I love the seating charts. That is a huge time-saver. I love being able to see the kids photos all together. I like the cheerful logo and the idea of having so many of the things I need in one place. I like that it gives some professionalism to the choir—for the parents. We look “serious,” which we are!

I don’t like the look of the files and music pages. It doesn’t feel friendly. I want to click on those pages and see buttons for each song that I can click on and get my links and music right there. The pages now are not easy on the eyes. I want a cleaner look—white background, colorful buttons—happy—like the logo and the customer service people! The menus and pages feel small, cramped, and wordy. More clickable buttons please. I make a newsletter every week. I would like to post that on the welcome page and have it be fully integrated so that my singers can click on a video in my newsletter and it will play. Right now it’s easier for me to just use Constant Contact to make my newsletters and post links to what I want folks to use. Chorus connection has ended up being backup for content—a last resort. I don’t enjoy loading stuff on it. My adhd needs larger type and clickable colorful buttons. But the biggest issues I have are 1. The whole concerts linked to attendance linked to music linked to payment is the loveliest concept ever invented but it is insane to use. I am still trying to wrap my head around creating inactive concerts that are actually the rosters for my choirs, and then having to go in and find the magic button to have each kid sing on certain concerts is confusing. That whole system needs a major overhaul. The concept is brilliant, but the program gives me headaches. It isn’t intuitive. And then the billing system...ug. Super confusing!!!

We have used Chorus Connection to help singers obtain their music electronically (thus eliminating the cost of printing music and being more environmentally friendly) as well as using this software to communicate to specific groups within the chorus (for example, just the Basses or the Sopranos). Both the artistic staff, the administrative staff and the users/singers all comment on how easy the system is to use.

The best thing about Chorus Connection is that it is easy for anyone to use - from beginners to experts. The administrative side is also very intuitive. The best compliment I can give Chorus Connection is from our users/singers - over 250 singers use Chorus Connection almost daily and we have had only a few complaints or confusion about the software. The customer support is outstanding - and since the developers of this software are singers from choruses themselves - they know exactly what a chorus needs in chorus management software.

We asked Chorus Connection to help us process paying dues each month. Chorus Connection developed this feature and we are mostly pleased with how this feature turned out, but we found out that we had to customize this feature since we offer scholarships as well as a monthly giving program in lieu of dues. The reports to show how many people have paid their dues is a bit clunky as well.
