Pros

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

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. ”

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.”
