One Call Now Reviews

Great way to send our mass calls to everyone in our directory

This is so easy to use I have found no cons with it

Our company has used one calling now for more than sex months. We use it to send our messages also we use it in our company to send out phone call ,also we use it in a certain groups .and it help us to know what the last news .

This software is very useful honestly from we use it .we find the communication between us is very easy and simple,and didn't cost so much and the phone app is very simple and any one can use it

It was important for my organization to select a software that supported our companies emergency notification last. This software was very easy to use and get our people trained.

Our people looked for templates to start with when setting up. We ended up having to create our own, which wasn't terrible...

The program is very easy to use and works very well. We like the reports that are sent so we know who received the message and who did not.

We do wish at times that the allowed characters for texting was larger.

This is super easy to use and set up. I like the fact that it can call everyone on your list or only certain groups or indivduals.

The one complaint I have is that it can only be accessed from the church phone. Many times I have needed to send out a message and have to go to the church to do it.

We used One Call for almost 10 years. We liked the ability to communicate with our congregation.

Lack of options. Inability to converse with congregants. Low ‘open’ rate (they wouldn’t pick up or after they hear the chime they’d hang up) No option to text instead.

One Call Now offers the ability to create a message and call all users on your call or text everyone on your specific call list. Users have the ability to opt-out if they desire.

There is a small learning curve in how to use One Call Now. There have been issues with using the mobile application.

The service that One Call Now provides has been a great addition to the tools that we use. Having the ability to reach our fellow union sisters and brothers in a single call allows use to get information and facts out quickly and efficiently.

I cannot really say that there are any things that I do not like with this service.

Able to contact multiple people with a single phone call

Not very reliable. Many times the report states I was contacted with the message, but I never even got a call! Several people say the message starts, stops then restarts with out ever completing the message. Several people reported that the message starts in the middle so full information is not conveyed.

Easy to set up and use. Able to voice a message from an app on my phone and send it immediately or I can schedule it for future delivery.

The only thing I don't like is that I can't change my User name. Even after using it for over two years, I constantly forget it and have to look it up.

Is it software? I always just called in and did it over the phone. I'm sure there is a computer involved so yeah, it's software. But I like how it does the job efficiently.

That I can only access it over the phone. Seems tedious, wish I had the data in front of me to see. Also wish it integrated with my Church Management Software.

I like the ease of use and reliability is great. It has an app I can easily use from my android phone.

I wish I could select text message instead of voice. But other than that I can no think of anything.

Our church has used One Call Now for several years, and it has continually improved. We use it to send out phone calls, emails, and text messages. You can schedule your messages, send to specific groups that you set up, or to everyone in the system. I've found the easiest way is via phone app as you can use your phone mic to record your voice messages. Sound quality is pretty good, too.

The phone app used to be buggy but it has greatly improved. The program does cost, but saves so much time and keeps your congregation informed and updated.

I am the office assistant and this is used for our church. I like it that I can go on the internet at home in the evening if needed and put out a prayer request to our congregation instead of having to go back to the church to put out the message.

The pronunciation on some words is not how we say them. I have to keep changing the spelling of the work until I can get the word to sound the way we pronounce it. An example: Blountville. For it to pronounce it correctly I have to change the spelling to Bluntville. And there are some other words that occasionally will come up that way.

It is very simple to use and get the job done.

It need more characters in text messaging

One Call Now has made such a difference in how much time it takes us to handle emergency closings or late openings. Before, we used an old-fashioned phone tree. It was time consuming and we sometimes missed people, which was not good. Now we just have to make one call and we know that all of our staff and volunteers have been notified.

We have one person who is not receiving the calls, but I think she may have inadvertently blocked the number.

The software is reliable and easy to use.

I can not find any problems with your product.

Ease of use / this is a great communication tool - second to none!

I have found no problems with this service.

Very user friendly, organized and easy to use.

Haven't found an issue yet. But, if you have a problem, they want to know about it.

One Call Now has saved our church countless hours of making phone calls. Instead of having several people making calls, and having the information change from caller to caller, every message is the same! It is quick, accurate, and user-friendly.

When I use my phone app, I have to use another app to find my group ID. When I use other apps, my username is pre-entered. The group ID should also be.

David, thank you for your review of One Call Now! We appreciate you taking the time and for your business. We will pass along your recommendation regarding the group ID - thank you again!

One Call Now will call, text or email your group, whichever they prefer. You can set-up sub groups to call only certain people so that the whole church doesn't need to be called when a youth meeting time is changed.

One Call Now charges based on the number of phone numbers that you have in your database. So if you have a home phone and a cell phone for someone, that counts as two numbers.

Ability to add/subtract employees as they fluctuate. Can make "all calls" from a phone, doesn't have to be at a computer. Fairly simple and easy to use.

The voice over for messages is hard to understand at times, you are better off recording your own messages. You have to enter your message in the messages folder before you start a new alert. The process of filling shifts or getting the quota call doesn't seem as effective as it was advertised.

The smartphone app is very convenient for making calls.

The smartphone app is very limited in its features. It would be much better if it functioned like the One Call Now web site where I could manage the entire program from the app. Using a web browser on a smartphone is very difficult.

Software is fairly reliable. Takes a while to learn to use it but works pretty well once you learn it.

Difficult uploading process for lists
