Priest in Charge Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Becoming an essential way of managing activity and resoirces" December 10, 2017 5.0 Pros This is feature rich software that allows us to enter information once for dissemination to multiple channels, including our own website. It has a very good calendar and contact database. We like the cloud hosting and the general feel of the software/ Cons Because the software is so comprehensive it takes a while to get used to using the features. More drag and drop would be helpful for Windows users so we could expand our registered users. Review Source AW Andy W. Parish Operations Manager Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Full Integration" December 12, 2018 5.0 We are still setting up and will be fully live on the first functions in early 2019 - having one reliable and authoritative source of information for our services, events and bookings makes this an invaluable tool Pros Getting all of our back office functions into one place with integrated database management has been central to improving communication across a dispersed team - we are on the way but the infrastructure of ChurchDesk is just what we have needed. Easy connection between our calendars and the website is also solving a lot of time otherwise wasted on duplication of data with the inherent need to check for coping errors. Cons Using the basics are straightforward but there is a need for steady regular use and the fantastic support from the team behind ChurchDesk to make the best use of its functions Review Source CL Carl L. Chair of PCC Communications Committee Used the software for: ### "Church Website System" September 10, 2015 4.0 We have recently moved from an old (rarely updated) FrontPage website to ChurchDesk. The changeover was rather seamless apart from during the launch in church, our router crashed with the number of people trying to use the WiFi! The CMS is easy to use and reasonably speedy. Apart from a couple of niggles about not being able to import events from a spreadsheet and multiple clicking to change options which we are told ChurchDesk are working on; the system is stable and works well for us. We chose this to replace not just our website, but also our MailChimp email newsletter and event management. So far it seems to be doing the trick. It's still early days but so far I am impressed. Review Source Response from ChurchDesk September 10, 2015 Thanks, Carl. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to be working with you! KH Karen H.

You save time by avoiding to contact newspapers with advertisements as the Calendar includes a function that will, when chosen, send the relevant information. It is easy to call in relevant staff and should mistakes happen it's not due to ChurchDesk Pros Easy interaction Cons The frequent system changes Review Source SA Sanna A.

IT responsible Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I am confident with the pograms." June 12, 2017 5.0 Pros "Before I retired, I worked as a partner in a consultant company. Because I was the only good Microsoft user, I was responsible for our IT and took care of our website, which was very complicated. With ChurchDesk, I quickly became familiar and comfortable with the technology. This is to a large extent due to the sweet support team: Birita, Maria and Marika and their expertise and kindness. I want to thank them for their patience with me as an elderly customer." Cons The people who have designed the program some times use words - expressions which sometimes can be a little difficilt to understand Review Source KG Kit G. Priest-in-Charge Used the software for: ### "St James Clapham" February 2, 2015 4.0 A good presentation, the people who did the presentation clearly knew their product. They asked good questions to understand our needs and focused on possible solutions. It might have been better if they had a more fact finding session before coming to do the presentation. Overall I was impressed by the product, but felt it did too much for us to justify the cost. Review Source Response from ChurchDesk February 3, 2015 Hello Kit, Thanks for giving us some feedback. I'm sorry to hear that ChurchDesk does too much. We are in fact trying to make it very simple despite. Most of our customers make use of the features over time as they get used to the digital workflow. I hope to see you back another time! Thanks, Christian TK Tom K. Assistant Priest Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Proving to be a great tool for mission" March 21, 2018 5.0 Pros Ease of communication with parishioners through text messaging and in keeping up to date necessary information. Cons Too soon to say. I am not an intuitive user of such packages and therefore value guidance at every step. This can be frustrating. Review Source JN John-Stuart N. Churchwarden and webmaster Used the software for: ### "Getting going with Churchdesk." March 18, 2015 5.0 For me, getting going with Churchdesk was a steep learning curve. I am so very impressed by the quality of the technical help I have received, which has enabled me to design a website with all the aspects I need in a short space of time. I am also most impressed by the friendliness of the Churchdesk staff, from Philip Waters, who introduced me to the concept, to all the other people I have emailed and/or spoken to. My vicar and I, and our colleagues and the congregation of our church, are all in agreement that moving to Churchdesk was a great thing to do.

Review Source TS Thomas S. civil servant Government Administration Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Splendid software" November 5, 2016 5.0 For me your software is easy to use. The calendar module is perfect and up to date. Every worship that is coming up will be shown on the web site. Every room is blocked by the event you chosen. Pros The calendar module is perfect. Cons You can't hide contacts from other registered members. Maybe in the future there is a possibility to hide the contacts and show only the name of the mailing list.
