I Love Calling Post

PROS

I absolutely love Calling Post. The service is amazing in that you can reach many people with one phone call! If ever there's a problem or a concern, the customer service is fantastic! You can actually call in and speak to someone or email them, confident that someone will respond quickly.

CONS

It's good as is! I don't have any complaints at all.

Reason for choosing CallingPost

Because when I first signed up to use Calling Post it was 1998 and it was the only product I knew about at the time. I've loved it so much, I wouldn't dare leave!

Calling Post for Church Communications

It took quite a while for folks to realize that they had to wait several seconds for the message to begin. The call sounds like any other courtesy call they receive and they would hang up before the message started.

PROS

The use of Calling Post replaced our previous "Prayer Chain", which was reliant upon each person responding promptly and passing the message on. It became tedious because so many folks did not follow through and the messages were not completed. With Calling Post, I can send the message out to everyone in a matter of minutes.

CONS

For quite some time, I have been getting an error message after sending and need to retry. I wait a minute and then resend. It usually goes, but sometimes gets sent twice. I have contacted "Help", but the things that they recommend checking have already been done.

Reason for choosing CallingPost

Calling Post had an email option as well as phone and texting.

Some Critiques

Generally positive, with the exception noted above.

PROS

The program is generally fairly simple to use and adequate for the reasonably simple reminders we send out to our congregation in the form of texts, emails and calls. Customer service is also quite good.

CONS

I find sending out my weekly blog is often problematic in terms of a balky format that often is not user friendly when corrections need to be made . Also, copying pre-typed text from Word is often problematic in terms of retaining the original formatting.

Reason for choosing CallingPost

Because of our existing use of CP and desire not to have to spend considerable time with set up requirements, and because CP was meeting our basic needs.

Ambassadors for Christ

While I was able to access my list, the experience was great. I don't know what to do now. I am trying to find a site comparable to Calling Post.

PROS

I like the fact that I was able to contact the church members with one call and everyone received the same message. It is great for making announcements to those who are unable to attend services at the church and it is a great way to keep in touch with our members.

CONS

I was disappointed when I saw the format had changed and the membership list wasn't available. I had painstakingly entered every phone number, email address and other information. When I tried to send out a post after you changed the site, I couldn't access my list!

Reason for choosing CallingPost

Calling Post was recommended to me and when I tried it, it worked for me.
