Great company and very helpful. They want us to succeed.

The best aspect of ACS is that it can hold and track a massive amount of diverse data. You can track all of the things you would expect in a database like names, contact info, birthdates, etc.

Ease of use, love the People and Financial Modules with its reports which we own. Don't know much about REALM but I think we would be interested.

I have had to call ACS to have them walk me through how to do such reports as doing so is in no way intuitive.

The customer service and desire on behalf of the employees to help you accomplish your goals is superb. The products reflect the needs of and input from the end users.

The secretaries at my last employer in Mesquite hated it for being confusing. My current employer uses ACS but I don't see the benefit of it.

It seems to be a great place to store all kinds of information.

I love how flexible/customizable it is, to fit nearly any faith community. It also can be integrated with other programs (giving, background checks, etc.).

To be fair, it's been a few years since I have spoken to ACS customer support and they were friendly and tried to be very helpful at the time, but it wasn't a good experience.

There is no way for the congregation to interface to the database to maintain their own information. This package puts a huge burden on the administratoe to keep it all up to date.

Customer Service was friendly, extremely helpful and patient. On site training was available at extra cost.

Because the software does so many functions and can be tailored to almost any church of any size or situation, it can be a little confusing.

ACS does have a new product called Realm that is supposed to be much easier and more flexible to use. I have looked at some of the demos for Realm and it does look like a vast improvement.

And unless they've recently updated the software (unlikely), you can't even use it on iPad without an external keyboard. Further, their pricing structure is ridiculous.

I like the way it stores information. Of course, it is not quick to master ACS, but once you have mastered it you have everything you want to know about reports, campaign follow-ups, etc.

Was cumbersome, ugly and not intuitive. The church paid a surprisingly high amount for the software.

Having to wait on hold for extensive periods of time was very inconvenient.

While all the modules technically work together, in practice their integration is flimsy and difficult to understand.

What I like best is that it is an affordable, integrated, double-entry accounting system designed specifically for churches and small non-profit organizations.

The only negative is that some of the features can sometimes be difficult for some people to understand how to use them.

The formatting of e-mails, especially with images, is limited.

Ability to send and track mass emails. Great for organizing church members.

So glad someone recommended TouchPoint to us. It is the best option we found and the pricing is VERY reasonable.

It is a great tool for congregants to know about other people in the church and for pastors to keep track of their congregation, all on one unified platform.

This is an excellent tool to help keep data and other information in a cohesive manner.

It is better than salesforce in my opinion. A great customer service.

I can't think of any negative feedback or experiences that we have had while we have been using TouchPoint.

We have tried and looked into other software and TouchPoint works best for us. The price is reasonable and it does most everything we need.

TouchPoint is a very good user-friendly application, very easy to use for beginners as well and very good customer support for a quick response. I was strongly recommended.

What I like most about this software is how it's connecting members together to better serve God's people.

It is really wonderful to use once you figure out how to do what you need. The other thing I don't love doing is figuring out how to build a search just the right way.

Web based, great tech support, love the reports.

The simple labeling and ease of navigation around the software has been huge in helping me get the information I need quickly and efficiently so I can keep moving forward in my ministry.

Filled with robust and customizable features and metrics. Extremely attentive customer support team.

This software made actually doing ministry awesome.

It is hard for me to think of something I dislike about TouchPoint. Just being nit-picky, I wish there was an option to enter birthdays without a year.

We are disappointed with the functionality for child check in and overall usability. It seems to be old technology with outdated interfaces.

I am disappointed that I cannot set up a communication plan for members and guests. The search  building feature seems a bit awkward.

It's user interface is so tough to learn, the customer service is horrible, and it is absolutely not worth the money.

Overall, it's very user friendly, very visually appealing, and modern looking.

Helps improve individual customer relationships and identify new business opportunities.

It's fine, but horrible customer service and takes months of trainer to use.

Programs used for online giving and background checks. They misrepresented themselves and there are better options available, but Toychpoint requires we use the bad companies.
