Pros

“The option to contact multiple contact lists, scheduling texts, the response feature, and that I can add videos, links, and pictures”
BB

Britta B.

Trips coordinator

“Didn't have integration with my email marketing platform, which is desirable for a comprehensive review of our marketing efforts.”
LN

Lori N.

Owner

“On their website, "FREE TRIAL" and "14 DAY REFUND" are displayed in large text.”
MB

Michael B.

Owner

Pros

“It has allowed us to simplify our systems and unify them into a single communication platform for both E-Mail, Text, and Tap Tags.”
TD

Tyler D.

Creative Director

“I wish I had the option to hold an automated workflow until someone filled out a PCO form, or entered a certain step in a PCO workflow, and then continue them on from there.”
TD

Tyler D.

Creative Director

“It integrates very well with planning center allowing us to keep everything in one system and place and easily add new folks as they visit and to stay in touch with them as they get to know us. ”

Pastor Lead Elder

Cons

“As a compromise, Simple Texting did offer "extra credits" beyond the 6000 useless ones we had pre-purchased. When I went to post this review on their website I found only 5 star reviews and could not find posting access.”
MB

Michael B.

Owner

“Sometimes despite the really good terms of the Simple Texting exist feew delays accordingly the operation”
CC

Charalampos C.

Owner

“Those courtesies are denied when pre-purchasing an annual plan.”
MB

Michael B.

Owner

Cons

“The biggest is not being able to edit their digital connect card, and also not being able to edit sign-up forms to make them match brand customization.”
TD

Tyler D.

Creative Director

“By only allowing subaccounts to exist with unique phone numbers, we are concerned about overwhelming our congregation with options. But by having all of our staff/leaders use our main account for their communications, we're concerned about muddying what should be a very simple communication system.”
RD

Reagan D.

Communications Coordinator

“I don’t really like that the limited number of messaging credits expire and are replenished monthly.”
