Finance Asst. Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "It has allowed us to easily be able to reach a group of people that we haven't been able to before." January 16, 2018 3.0 Pros The Ease of Use - it is easy to quickly go in and update and it updates in real time, which is super helpful when information needs to be changed at the last minute. Cons It is a bit frustrating to have to continually connect with Customer Support to be able to add on features, take off features, or adjust the account in any way. It would be nice to be able to actually be fully in charge and be able to administer the account without feeling like we need to ask permission to change something. Examples - It would be nice to easily add or delete admins to our account or quickly and easily be able to add features by just a quick click of the button instead of contacting Customer Service. Though the team is quick and friendly in it's response, it still feels like we're not in total control of our account. Review Source Response from Aware3 July 2, 2018 Hey Adele! Totally understand what you mean, although we love touching base with you! :) We heard your feedback and have recently added the ability for admins to add their own features. Thanks for the review! ME Mandy E. Relationship Manager Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Need a church branded app? This sofware is for you!" September 4, 2018 5.0 This app easily connects us to our congregation. Push notifications, uploading documents, sermon notes, etc. NO PROBLEM!! We find that many people use the app more than our website. Pros Once you set up your church branded app, it is EASY to make changes. Their customer service and help is user friendly! We have implemented this system - and as a user and administrator, this product fulfils a specific need for us. Cons Sometimes Android users find this app cumbersome. It is set up more for Apple/IOS users. For example, Android users have to manually clear notifications. Review Source Response from Aware3 September 9, 2018 Hi Mandy! Thanks for the awesome review. We really appreciate you taking the time to give your feedback. So glad to hear your congregation is able to connect using your app. :) JR Joe R. President/Founder Entertainment Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Not all that great" September 5, 2019 2.0 Not worth it for us Pros It’s fairly easy to use with text donating Cons People just do not seem inclined to use the service Review Source Response from Aware3 September 18, 2019 Hi Joe, thank you for your feedback. We're sorry you haven't been satisfied with your giving services. We would like to discuss your feedback in more detail and a team member will be reaching out soon. Thank you! MP Mollie P. Independent hair stylist Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I think we have had a pretty good experience with Aware3. CS has always been two thumbs up." January 16, 2018 4.0 Pros I like the customization is pretty easy on here. I like that there's a lot you can customize (I wish it was easier to add on features though). I also like that it's truly mobile responsive for all devices that I've tried it on. I like that it's helping to engage our guests and attenders in a very modern way. Cons I hate that it's not truly a multi-campus software. We have had multiple issues with campus information crossing over, and in turn had to buy a second account for our second campus. Also don't like that some of the features, like texting, is a paid add-on...wish everything was included if you offer it. Review Source CH Caitlin H. Administrator Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Aware3 for Churches " May 31, 2019 5.0 Great customer service and quick to help with issues. Pros The Aware3 app allows our church body to have one location for sermon notes, forms, listen to sermons, give, and take notes. Cons The integration with CCB could be improved. Review Source Response from Aware3 June 13, 2019 Caitlin, We appreciate your feedback. We are happy to hear that our software has been such a great resource for Common Ground and its members. Aware3 is always striving to be better for our customers. If there is something you see that can be improved, please don't hesitate to reach out to support@aware3.com and let us know! JB Jeff B. Worship Arts & Technology Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Really Good App" May 28, 2019 5.0 Overall experience with Aware3 has been good. They're providing our church with an app that is a great tool for our congregation. Pros There are a LOT of features packed in here. Cons The user interface is pretty wonky. You can usually get it to do what you want, but it takes longer because it's not intuitive. For example: in the UI for the app, there is an icon for a magnifying glass. Everyone knows that's the universal icon for search, right? Nope - in here it's how you get to the settings for that particular button. It works, it's just a little weird. Review Source Response from Aware3 June 6, 2019 We really appreciate your feedback, Jeff! We're hard at work on some improvements in the UI realm, so stay tuned. Jeremy C. Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Aware3 has provided a simple way for engaging donors in a text-to-give format." January 16, 2018 4.0 Pros It works well, it's simple, it's a true text-to-give option and not just a link to an online giving platform. Cons I sometimes forget we even use it because it runs in the background and provides data to a third party platform for us. Review Source SM Steven M. Associate Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Strasburg community Church" September 29, 2018 4.0 Aware3 support has been fantastic. Anytime we’ve had an issue or even a dumb question they’ve been there to help out. Pros Aware3 has really helped us develop much better connections with our church attendees during the week and they’ve been able to better connect with us. App features are easy to use and navigate and provide a wide variety of resources for both the casual user and the in-depth user. Cons Nothing really. We really don’t have anything negative to say about it. Review Source Response from Aware3 October 1, 2018 Hi Steven! We're blushing :) Thank you for the kind words. Our team is so excited to hear that you've experienced improved connection and communication in your church. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! RS Russ S. Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great App Platform For the Money" October 2, 2018 5.0 We've really loved aware3. As a newer church, it's allowed us to have a great looking, affordable app that keeps our church connected, informed, and engaged. Pros Great looking. Syncs with CCB calendar, groups, online giving, etc. Continually adding new features. Cons Only update features 2x per year... find myself waiting impatiently. :) Review Source Response from Aware3 October 9, 2018 Hi Russ, Great feedback! We love hearing your excitement about continually adding new features. We are working on some exciting new features in the coming months. Keep an eye out for our email announcements! Katie K. Community Relations Manager Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Customer service is always available and has answered every single question we've had. " January 16, 2018 5.0 Pros Ease of use and customer service. Questions are answered immediately and it was a breeze to set up and customize! Cons There are limitations to what we can do, but new features are continuously added to help keep our app fresh. Review Source GA Grant A. Operations Director Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The overall experience has been phenomenal! " January 16, 2018 5.0 Our online giving increased. We are able to communicate with over 1600 devices through push notifications. Pros I like how it can communicate with CCB. This helps us a ton in our ministry. We heavily rely on CCB, so to have a tool that allows our attenders to interact with our CCB accounts is very helpful. The give feature is very nice. It makes it quick and easy for someone new to give. We had a church financial guy come to our church and he tested out online giving experience and he was very pleased on how easy it was to give online. Cons I think the app loads a little slow sometimes which make it not 100% reliable. It sometimes creates duplicates of user accounts. Review Source CS Craig S. Children's Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great company to work with!" January 16, 2018 5.0 We received a great looking app that fit our church's personality and worked like it should. Pros The best part of Aware3 is their integration with CCB. We don't have to create data in 2 places, it seamlessly syncs across platforms. The Text-to-act feature is amazing as well, we use that a lot! Customer service is AMAZING! It is great to have all of our information in one spot for our congregation to have access to. Cons The only thing that hinders us sometimes is that we have to ask for features by emailing customer support. They answer right away, but it would be nice to be able to add a feature without having extra steps. Review Source Kristy M. Connections/Graphic Design Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Steadily becoming a first class app!" January 17, 2018 4.0 Pros I have been able to get almost everything I need out of the app and from the user's side it is very friendly. Cons There are several features I would like to see improved or added and there are many times when the app freezes. Review Source VS Veronica S. Administrative Ministry Support Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Heritage Church Review" June 4, 2019 3.0 Pros We like that people can be informed about what is happening in our ministry. We also like the feature for tithe and offering. Easy for the user to use. For a programmer, once it is set up it makes it easy to maintain. Also the fact that it adapts quickly with CCB, make it easy on communicating with members. Cons For a new programmer, in setting up the app, it takes a lot of time to understand how to create and adjust information. Also working with the Apple update has not been the most easy situation to handle. It has been time consuming to get it worked out. Review Source Response from Aware3 June 17, 2019 Veronica, We're happy to hear that the app is easy for your users to navigate! Unfortunately, we are at Apple's mercy with their new guidelines. We appreciate your patience and work getting your Apple Developer Account set up, and we'll handle things from here on out! Thanks again for your review. VR Verified Reviewer Minister of Worship and Communications Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "We've been very pleased with our experience!" January 16, 2018 5.0 Pros I like how easy it is to use the Aware3 control panel. It is largely intuitive and straightforward. Cons The graphical layout is not quite as customizable as I would prefer. We were a bit restricted in our design choices. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Stewardship Pastor, Ramsey Solutions Master Financial Coach Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Has done everything it was supposed to do, though our implementation/rollout was delayed" January 16, 2018 4.0 Pros Easy to use and modify. Users seem to like it and started using it on their own with little training. Cons Doesn't integrate directly with our ChMS. We started being charged before it was ready to implement and deploy. Review Source NE Nathan E. Bookkeeper Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Customer service has always been very helpful and prompt and they look for ways to improve." January 22, 2018 4.0 The integration of the app with Church Community Builder. Pros The app integrates with our church database system data base and I am the bookkeeper so the easy of identifying credit card transactions that are processed through the app is really nice. Cons Don't really have any major cons. Again as the bookkeeper, the only thing that I can think of is it would be nice to have a settlement identifier for the credit card transactions that are processed through the app. I run a transaction report out of CCB and the transactions that come from the app do not have a settlement number so it makes it a little difficult to batch them together to match a deposit, but it usually isn't to difficult. Review Source BS Brian S. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Aware3 Filled a Gap" September 20, 2019 5.0 The Aware3 team has always responded quickly to any questions or issues we’ve had. Overall, I would give them an A+ rating. Pros There are so many easy to use and navigate back office options to make this the the perfect tool for building and maintaining our app. I also appreciate that they are continually improving their product - not a once and done company. Cons I can’t say there is anything I dislike about the software. Review Source Response from Aware3 September 30, 2019 Brian, we're thrilled to hear this! Thanks so much for the review. VR Verified Reviewer Store Manager Consumer Goods Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Staff is very friendly and helpful, value on cost of service is very good. " January 16, 2018 5.0 Pros The quality is very professional and offers the perfect resources for our church and ministry. It has been a great tool to connect too our members Cons The platform to edit the different sections where a bit confusing at times but customer service was very helpful. Having a background in design is helpful to navigate and make changes to the look and feel of the app. Review Source MS Maris S. Secretary Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Aware 3 Review " October 3, 2018 4.0 Overall it has been a positive experience. The only issue I had was when it was time to renew and Apple had a new renewal process, which required me to deal with Apple directly. It turned out to be a very lengthy process due to Apple's processes and the Aware3 people were good about communicating with me and responding to me through emails. However, there were several times I preferred to speak with someone over the phone and I was never able to after asking for a phone contact repeatedly. Pros User friendly, I'm able to communicate easily with my audience in a professional manner. Cons I use the push notification feature often. I don't care for the 130 character limit. Review Source Response from Aware3 October 11, 2018 Hi Maris - thank you for your feedback! Apple's new rules have made things interesting for all of us. Thanks for bearing with us as we got through the update together! The good news is that the Apple Developer Account setup is one-time process, so it should be smooth sailing moving forward. Christi W. Pastor's Wife, Office Manager Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Anyone can launch an app with Aware3!" April 4, 2018 5.0 The ability to have an app for our church which was so easy to set up and manage is such a blessing. Pros It is super easy. I am not a web or app designer. Their interface is easy to understand for even a novice like me. And can I just say CUSTOMER SUPPORT!! They were so quick to return my inquiry each time I have contacted them. Turns out I really didn't even need them because as soon as I asked the question, I saw the answer. Cons The one draw back about this software is...hold on...I'm thinking...still thinking. I give up. I got nothin'! Review Source Response from Aware3 April 5, 2018 ha - thanks for the kinds words, we appreciate it! TS Tonya S. Secretary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Of all the app providers our church researched, Aware3 is hands down the best!" January 17, 2018 5.0 We can't choose our own online giving platform. Although I realize that is the reason Aware3 can offer such a good price on the cost of the app. Pros Great value for the price Superior, professional look Super easy interface Relevant, up to date features Knowledgeable support staff Quick response time on email questions Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Media and Communications Director Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great tool in an arsenal of church communication software." January 20, 2018 4.0 Texting Campaigns involving our church. Pros Aware3's texting feature makes communicating last minute information super easy! Their text back campaigns also provide an easy way for church members to receive the information they need in a digital age. Cons My only complaint is I wise the texting number itself was more of a shortcode than an actual phone number. Much easier to text "Fun" to 12345 than 123.456.7890 Review Source JT Jason T. Minister Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Outstanding app! Full of value! Easy to use & easy to maintain! A must have in today's digital age." January 16, 2018 5.0 Pros Ease of use. Simple to maintain & set up. Overall look and feel are amazing. Provides great value for the money. Customer service is quick & responsive. Cons Needs more applicable features. Hindered by the inability to add some things. Would like some areas that could opened up for more personalized use. I have no use for certain functionality that's built in to tha app & but would love to have space to create our own functionality. Review Source JF Jen F. Accountant Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Overall, it is user-friendly and has helped stream line our transaction. " January 16, 2018 4.0 Easy integration into our giving software and quickbooks Pros Easy of integration into CCB. Dashboard makes it easy to see trends. Lots of information readily available. Cons Reports are not easy to run. Have to create unique parameters in order to get what i want. Wish there was a way to add or arrange columns so that on a smaller screen can get all the data of a row that I need instead of scrolling back and forth especially on the transaction page Review Source Similar Products Featured
