Our sweet spot is medium and large churches of 100 to 4,000 (worship) that need extra features like two-way text, but don't have staff with the desire and skill set to code software themselves.
Pastoral care teams looking for a better way to track and organize pastoral care. Whether they are low-tech or tech savvy, Notebird is great for the whole team.
I like that with Church teams you can email or text everybody or select groups. We love the check in ability and the ease of bringing others into using it.
You can do it but the process is hard it does not embed into our website template and is clunky. This all may be a lack of knowledge issue.
I love ChurchTeams, and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to empower their leaders and volunteers to connect directly with what is happening any your church.
Support, is likely the worst piece of Church Teams for me. I called at 7pm the other night, they were closed, I called at 10.30am my time yesterday, they were closed.
They have many videos that you can watch to help you learn on your own time if customer service is not available. Always super friendly and helpful.
It's very inconvenient; too many steps, too much time and limiting for those who don't have administrative permissions.
We have found the mobile-friendly update to be excellent and quite helpful for us as administrators. The customer service and support have been absolutely excellent.
One thing that we really are missing is a generalized calendar to put all of our church events on.
I am more than satisfied with the product. A friend recommended it to me and I do not know what we would do without it.
The cost, the individual user monthly charge makes it cost prohibitive for start up and small ministries that need it most. No push notifications...this is a critical feature that is missing.
Easy to use, great functionality and features, Notebird customer support has been wonderful at customizing options for us.
It has been a little awkward to submit updates.
They were a huge help transferring date at the beginning and when we have questions they are very responsive.
Sometimes hard to figure out how to update something.
It was very easy to learn and very easy to navigate. I love the customization it allows for me to do exactly what I want.
Sometimes I drop off of the daily email update.
Speaker 1: My name is Arlona. I'm the media, arts, and technology assistant, and I would give Churchteams a five out of five. For more information click below. Before we switched over to Churchteams, we were using a program called Shelby arena, which was a very powerful program, but it was so hard to use. It was really difficult for our admins to input information and then get back out meaningful information. It was always a struggle to run a single report. We switched over to Churchteams for quite a few reasons, but mostly it was because it was so good for small groups, keeping track of people coming and going, and the workflows just make sense, not only to me as the administrator, but they make sense to my pastor, and they make sense to the people using the information and the people entering the data. And we're just able to work seamlessly with one database now. Instead of having multiple databases, everybody is comfortable using Churchteams, so it actually gets used by my staff and by my congregation. It was really super hard to get started with Churchteams because I could not figure out how to get the information out of the old database. Once I figured out how to get the information out of the old database, loading everything into Churchteams was smooth sailing. They did all of the heavy lifting for me, answered all of the questions that I had, and really helped make it a smooth transition. Definitely try out Churchteams. It is a great tool that our pastors are actually leaning into using, and we're finding it to be a good, great fit for our church.
