Pros/Cons
Pros
- Best system I've ever worked with, especially if you look at the price point. You can combine multiple systems and have everything in house and supported by a great team.
- Tithely has been a great addition to our online giving mechanism. The forms presented to the user are super clean and easy to use.
- For leadership it is great to quickly go to someone's profile and see activity and overview about them. We love Elvanto and tell everyone about them.
Cons
- Confusing variety of ways to attach files to songs and services. API is missing some key features for service planning.
- More than anything it is their phone app, which is fairly useless at this time compared to just logging into the website on your phone (this is where 4 stars on Features comes in).
- The only thing was a lack of follow up from the Tithely team when I tried to setup a sales conference.
Pros
- Love its versatility and great price for what you get. Love all the functionalities and how you can track and keep a record of meetings, attendance, planning, etc.
- The member planning is pretty great as well. I love that you can see in real time which members invited have accepted, declined or have not responded to invitations.
- 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.
Cons
- 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.
- I often struggle to find what I'm looking for. It's difficult to navigate and can be frustrating at times.
- It's a little awkward to block out multiple days in the calendar that aren't consecutive.
