### "Streamlined and Fluid"

June 29, 2017

5.0

Planning and organizational applications are wonderful when it comes to getting an entire team on board. Having communication simplified like this has helped immensely.

Pros

Super relative to what it's meant for and makes the drudgery of admin easy. I used to hate setting meetings but this takes the pain away completely.

Cons

Not enough features. I'd like to see more cloud based integration with other apps (music for example).

### "Best CMS out there"

October 20, 2016

5.0

We have tried them all and once we switched to Elvanto, it solved many of our problems. We now track everything from first time guests to kid check in within Elvanto. The only two challenges we have found is 1) The worship planning is not awesome so we still use Planning Center for our musicians primarily for their amazing app. 2) You need a dedicated person running elvanto. It is completely customizable which is a HUGE bonus, unless you don't know what you're doing and don't give it the time it needs. Can't recommend it enough!

October 20, 2016

I've been using Elvanto for about a month now as our church administrative assistant. I've found it very easy to use, and I'm not a "techy" person. It's awesome for communicating to our volunteers on a weekly basis!

Pros

October 8, 2018

4.0

Pros

My team and I really loved the interface since it was very easy to use and navigate. It's features are much more convincing especially with the Worship feature.

Cons

Everything was working out to my satisfactory and thus, I didn't face any challenge using this software even though it's not been long since I started using it.

October 21, 2016

5.0

The implementation of Elvanto has allowed our church to standardise our rostering processes across our various ministries and given us an accessible and reliable source of information about our membership. The application is intuitive and the online documentation is very comprehensive and helpful. All requests for assistance have been answered promptly and helpfully by a team that is committed to the spread of the gospel.

### "Quality System"

October 20, 2016

4.0

Elvanto customer service is top notch. Because of the time difference, I am able to chat with Customer Service in the evening time. This is a huge plus for me. I have been using Elvanto for 2 years now and they have done many updates, because of customer feedback. They generally listen to what we have to say. I have found the program to be extremely flexible. And I would recommend this system to EVERYONE!

October 20, 2016

4.0

Elvanto has been a great system for us. The customer support has been great as we've grown and advanced our systems. Our next phase will be using more of Elvanto's capabilities to improve efficiency - I don't believe we're using many of these functions yet. Looking forward to exploring different pluggins/apps in Elvanto that link to our other platforms and talk to eachother (mailchimp, squarespace, etc).

### "Best church database out there"

October 26, 2016

5.0

We've worked with many church databases over the years, but Elvanto trumps them all. It's so simple for volunteers to use, and it allows a database to function as it should: to serve those who use it. We love the ability to take notes on people as we pastor and lead them, the group functions are great, and the forms and reporting functions are awesome. We highly recommend Elvanto all the time!

### "Easy to use for the lay person"

September 24, 2019

5.0

Very easy to use and easy to explain to others how to use.

Pros

I found it very easy to use for the person who is not into the accounting side of things. It is easy to explain to church members as well.

Cons

I didn't find anything that I didn't like so far. I have not used it extensively so I may find things later on.

October 20, 2016

5.0

Elvanto has everything a church needs to communicate, plan, engage, and manage all aspects of the church family and local community. Elvanto has extremely intuitive, yet powerful interface. Though Elvanto is growing fast, Ben and his team offer a personal touch. I have researched all options, and Elvanto is the only system you need to look at.

November 8, 2015

5.0

Best system I've ever worked with, especially if you look at the price point. You can combine multiple systems and have everything in house and supported by a great team. Learning curve for staff is easy and members love it. Volunteer management is the best out there and it also offers integration with many other systems.

Been very satisfied with the program and the price. It does everything we need and more at a much better price than the other programs we were looking at.

Pros

Cost Support is very responsive

Cons

Might not have every "bell and whistle" other programs have. There is a learning curve to use it

I've used elvanto's software for a number of years now and value its ease of use. Being able to easily train new users each year is made easy because of the intuitive and beautiful user interface. The customer service is fantastic. New features are regularly added to the software in response to customer feedback.

I love Elvanto. We have been using it for over 2 years. Every system has it ups and downs. However, for us Elvanto has the best features for us as a church. We love the way you can customize different areas. It helps us know people in our church, and see how we can help them grow.

We've been thrilled with Elvanto for so many reasons. We use it for member database, communication, giving tracking (integrated with a number of key giving companies), scheduling volunteers, planning services - and so much more. Online support is excellent. Can't go wrong here.

### "Some things we love, some we dont!"

December 14, 2017

4.0

Pros

Scheduling services, rostering teams, and forms are pretty good. It would be nice if the software was more intuitive and able to copy over settings from one service to the next

Cons

The event registration portal does not work very well for us, it did not track cash payments and we need to re work the report when we print it to update with who had paid by cash

I really like Elvanto. I am holding my breath waiting for the Financial system to be improved. Once that is done it will be a total package system.

Pros

Simple use and getting the team connected in one platform.

Cons

Financial system
