Church Metrics vs Rock RMS: Which is a better fit?

Paul T: Hi, my name's Paul. I'm the IT systems administrator here at my company, and I would give Rock RMS five stars. For more ratings like this, please click below. So before moving to Rock RMS, we used a product called Arena for several years. And even previous to that, we used another product called Shelby Systems. Shelby V5 specifically. We chose Rock RMS for several reasons. It was developed by the same group that had developed the Arena platform, and we saw basically for us what looked like Arena 2.0, and it took advantage of a lot of different features that we did not currently have. It was web based, it used Microsoft .NET, and the price was right for us. The pricing model was different than what we had paid for previously. And we've also been able to develop and take the platform beyond just the out of the box product. So the onboarding process for Rock was very simple. It was almost as simple as just running an executable and getting it installed. That was part of the process. The bigger process for us, as we use Azure as the platform, and we were unfamiliar with Azure, and getting the Azure part set up was a little bit more complicated. However, the steps provided by the Rock construction manuals, while very long, are very detailed and very thorough, and even someone with very little to no experience can go through the steps and get it configured. If you are looking at Rock RMS, I think you should go ahead and implement it. It's an amazing product. The price model will probably work for your organization regardless of your size, large or small. The community around Rock is amazing, something I've never seen before. The support that you receive is limited, but the community is incredibly helpful and will provide the support that you need to get up and running.
