Minister Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ambassadors for Christ" July 1, 2020 4.0 While I was able to access my list, the experience was great. I don't know what to do now. I am trying to find a site comparable to Calling Post. Pros I like the fact that I was able to contact the church members with one call and everyone received the same message. It is great for making announcements to those who are unable to attend services at the church and it is a great way to keep in touch with our members. Cons I was disappointed when I saw the format had changed and the membership list wasn't available. I had painstakingly entered every phone number, email address and other information. When I tried to send out a post after you changed the site, I couldn't access my list! Reason for choosing CallingPost Calling Post was recommended to me and when I tried it, it worked for me. Review Source JM John M. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Some Critiques" June 30, 2020 3.0 Generally positive, with the exception noted above. Pros The program is generally fairly simple to use and adequate for the reasonably simple reminders we send out to our congregation in the form of texts, emails and calls. Customer service is also quite good. Cons I find sending out my weekly blog is often problematic in terms of a balky format that often is not user friendly when corrections need to be made . Also, copying pre-typed text from Word is often problematic in terms of retaining the original formatting. Reason for choosing CallingPost Because of our existing use of CP and desire not to have to spend considerable time with set up requirements, and because CP was meeting our basic needs. Review Source JH JOSEPH H. Founding/Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best communication platform I have used!" July 1, 2020 5.0 I have used Calling Post for the past five years and I’ve been highly satisfied with the ease-of-use and dependability. Out of several thousand calls, we have had only one instance where the message did not come across clearly. When I called the representatives at Calling Post, they immediately refunded those calls and apologized for the problem. I was very impressed. I have recommended Calling Post to all of my pastoral colleagues since I begin using it back in 2015. Pros Calling Post is very user friendly and very reliable. From setting up our account to sending out our weekly messages to our Church family, Calling Post is the only Calling platform I will ever use! Cons I haven’t found anything yet I do not like about Calling Post. Review Source KW Kristi W. Admin Support Specialist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good Communication Tool" June 30, 2020 4.0 Having the system go down and not be available when you need it Pros Being able to send out messages to different groups and be able to schedule them ahead of time Cons No being able to upload documents to send through text messages and having it time out alot when trying to schedule messages Review Source DK Dell K. Admin Package/Freight Delivery Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Ease of Use on adding members" August 11, 2020 3.0 post for our supplier for deliveries Pros Ease of use for the end user posting the message Cons the way you have to add members, you should be able to add a member then select the group or groups you would like them in, instead of having to go to groups and then add the member. Review Source MB MARGIE B. community manager Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Calling Post has been an ESSENTIAL tool during this health crisis." June 30, 2020 5.0 Pros I have used Calling Post for over 15 years. It has always been a tool that I used to communicate with the senior residents who live in our community. However, during the COVID-19 crisis it has been an invaluable asset in maintaining a line of communication on an almost daily basis with my folks. The unlimited plan is a marvelous value and I certainly get my money's worth! It is very easy to use, they can hear MY voice not a recorded voice, and I can rest assured that they all receive the message. Cons I am very pleased with all aspects of the service. Review Source JF Joel F. pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy & Inexpensive" June 30, 2020 4.0 I have had ZERO problems with the software. Its ease of use and cost effectiveness will keep me as a customer and consumer. Pros The ease of getting a message recorded and sent is great. In a matter of a few minutes I am sending out a phone message to my entire congregation. CallingPost has given me the confidence in knowing that EVERYONE gets the exact same message in a timely manner. It has been a time saver and headache relief for me since the day I sent the 1st message. Cons Thsi may have been resolved by now - but if not - the ability to put together a call on a mobile-device was cumbersome. I didn't like fact that I could not choose the "caller ID" number when setting up a sending a message from my smartphone. Reason for choosing CallingPost Recommended by a friend and cost. Review Source LW Leni W. Community Organizer Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A decent way to 'get the word out' and save time while doing it!" June 30, 2020 4.0 Overall, it's been decent. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I sometimes need to send messages after 9pm. The system has a recording that states messages will be sent between 9am and 9pm. If that restriction has been waived or lifted, the recording should be updated to reflect that. Pros The option to show your own phone number or utilize the system's number. Cons When you're paying for a higher tier, you should have the option to have a recording that's longer than 2 minutes. Reason for choosing CallingPost Because the older members of the organization do not utilize email.... So setting up a Google Group wouldn't have been inclusive for everyone. However, most people have a phone. I can get the message to more people via phone message. Review Source GQ Gwen Q. HR Coordinator Consumer Goods Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Excellent Platform for Keeping Employees Up to Date" June 30, 2020 5.0 We needed a great way to communicate with all of our employees about situational changes due to COVID. We had used CallingPost every now and then before, but we have really benefitted from having it during this time. Pros I love that I can text all of some of my employees at the same time without having to break it down into segments. Keeping our employees notified of COVID related information has been so beneficial to us! Cons Sometimes the message won't send, and it gives you an error message of "Oops, something went wrong." You almost have to back out of the entire thing and get back in to get it to send. Thank goodness it does save the message. Reason for choosing CallingPost Ease of use. Simplicity in steps to create a message. Review Source MC MIRIAM C. Staff Accountant Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I Love Calling Post" June 30, 2020 5.0 Pros I absolutely love Calling Post. The service is amazing in that you can reach many people with one phone call! If ever there's a problem or a concern, the customer service is fantastic! You can actually call in and speak to someone or email them, confident that someone will respond quickly. Cons It's good as is! I don't have any complaints at all. Reason for choosing CallingPost Because when I first signed up to use Calling Post it was 1998 and it was the only product I knew about at the time. I've loved it so much, I wouldn't dare leave! Review Source aT alice T. president Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "voice mail calling post" July 7, 2020 5.0 Calling post has helped me keep my group informed of the many changes and activities that affect our organization. The messages come in clear and a voice message is left on the line if the member misses the call. Pros I am able to send a message to a large group using the phone and able to edit the message before sending it out. I am also able to make changes easily to the list of phone numbers. Cons It took a while to get the phone numbers transferred to calling post from the previous package I was using . Reason for choosing CallingPost Calling post was less expensive. Review Source CW Christopher W. Church Elder Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great App to get the word out" June 30, 2020 5.0 Great experience. I only had to call for help once or twice and it was more educational than functional issues. Pros CallingPost is easy to set up and use. I can record messages now and send them out later or repeatedly as needed. I use it to inform our church about upcoming events and changes to our schedule. Cons None, it works better than expected. I love it. Reason for choosing CallingPost It came recommended to me by another church member who had used it in the past. Once I saw the features it was a slam dunk decision. Review Source JC Janice C. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Calling Post saves time." June 30, 2020 5.0 I'm saving time and everyone is getting the same information at the same time, so noone feels slighted, snubbed or uninformed. Pros This product is easy to use and saves time. Once the names and information are programmed, I can just spend 10 minutes to get a message out. I usually record the message and schedule it to go out the following morning. My members are appreciative because they stay informed and up-to-date and they feel like their Pastor is operating in the 21st Century. Cons The fact that I can call, send to voicemail, email or text is a plus. Usually I send the message out in multiple formats. That way I ensure that my members get it. The only negative is that sometimes messages seem to overlap, like a text message alert will come in while I'm listening to the actual call. However, that little glitch in the system is easy to ignore. And on one occasion I scheduled a message and the program give an error message, so I reprogrammed the message and then both messages went out. Review Source CP Cathy P. VP Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Calling Post Saves Time" July 7, 2020 5.0 Pros We use Calling Post texts multiple times a week as reminders 15-minutes prior to our webinars. Cons Since we send the same messages at the same time on the same days each week, it would be great if Calling Post would automate that functionality. Review Source BA Brian A. Minister of Pastoral Care Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Very Helpful" July 9, 2020 5.0 Overall I can not say anything bad about it. However I have never used anything else either. Pros At Hopewell Baptist Church, we can give our leaders access to being able to call their Sunday School Classes / Discipleship Groups and it make its a lot easier on them. I use it sporadically. As in the different events getting ready to take place to notifying members of a death. Cons There are times the system seems to be delayed and it takes a while getting either logged in or getting to a particular group I'm wanting to get to. It doesn't seem to happen too often. Reason for choosing CallingPost The Church was using it when I started on Staff over 10 years ago and we have never changed to anything else. Is there something better? I don't know. Why fix something if it is working. Review Source VW Vickey W. Administrative Assistant Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CallingPost is a Godsend!" June 30, 2020 5.0 Very positive! I'm very pleased. Pros I love that it is very easy to use. I can either record a message or type in my message use a computerized voice to deliver it. I don't have to call everyone myself. I also like that emailing or text messaging is an option. Cons There may be and I've just missed it, but I wish I could upload all my contacts info and then create groups picking from those. Reason for choosing CallingPost Price and I didn't have to purchase any additional equipment. Review Source RP Royce P. Senior Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Pandemic Communication" July 13, 2020 5.0 Pros The product is very easy to use. The text and email features allow me as the pastor to communicate at one time to all devices. During this pandemic Calling Post has saved me time in reaching members on a weekly basis. Cons I have been a long time user of callingpost and over the years the company has made many changes that were effective and more efficient for the administrator. I can not find any Cons. Review Source AC Alina C. Communications Director Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great stand-alone product for calls or texts" June 30, 2020 5.0 We use CallingPost primarily for announcements about deaths in the congregation and a once-a-year event that requires very last-minute notifications to volunteers. It is easy to use for both the staff person who is the CallingPost administrator (myself) and other staff that may need to use it to send a call once. Pros CallingPost is very easy to use for sending calls or texts to a group of people. Cons CallingPost does not easily integrate with our CRM, so I have to manually remove or add people to the list. Review Source MR Mary R. Rector Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good for helping a community stay connected" June 30, 2020 5.0 Great! Pros It's easy to record a weekly encouraging message to send to the church community, we have also used it to send urgent or emergency messages. Cons We've been a customer for a long time, so recent updates and upgrades have not given us the benefit of having put money in monthly for a long time. Reason for choosing CallingPost It was one of the best available when we looked for something almost 8 years ago. Review Source CM Carol M. Club Manager Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "American Legion Post 210 Calling Post Review" July 1, 2020 4.0 Pros The ability to type my message into the website and have it translated to a recording Cons The recording does not space in between sentences like a person talking. Sentences run together and are sometimes hard to understand the recording voice. I would suggest making the recording sound more human like than a computer talking. Add punctuation commands to the recordings. The message ID should offer the next available message number so I don't have to search what my last message was before I pick a new message number. Review Source IJ Isoline J. Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "User" July 6, 2020 5.0 It's been a great tool for my church, just need more time? Pros Calling post is a great tool to get your message out to several people especially in a church congregation all at one time, so it really helps Cons I don't like the fact that it do not give me longer time to record my messages at least 3-5 minute I may not user that much time but I don't even have that option? Review Source JD Joe D. Jr Vice Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "My review" June 30, 2020 3.0 Mixed, easy to set up and use but it is becoming increasingly glitchy and I find the app is not very useful. Pros Ease of setup and use, intuitive and some very basic features make it easy to get going. Cons I've mostly used the site based system from a browser on my desktop and I've found it very glitchy lately. Over the past few months I've found that when I go to create and send messages I just get a message that the systems was unable to send, no reason or error why. So, after several manual attempts it eventually sends but I come to find that my email that I spent time formatting gets completely blown out and I have to do it all over again. I did not contact customer service with the issue, most of the time I send this out late in the early evening and they are not available, and when they are it takes too much time to sort out then just making additional attempts. Review Source DD Denise D. Parish Secretary Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "church" July 1, 2020 5.0 This service allows me to contact all members of the parish and to play back a recording for my own records. Pros Ease of use. I use this product for sending messages to parishioners and to parish organizations. During COVID-19, I have used this product for sending weekly sermon shorts. Cons Other than the shortness of recording time, I can't think of any 'cons.' Review Source LW Lillie W. Administrative Assistant Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Satisfied Customer" June 30, 2020 4.0 I have been well satisfied and it has saved me a lot of time in making calls. Pros I like the versatility of sending messages either via text, email, or phone/voice. Cons I receive several comments from people who receive the voice, that if the message is keyed in it is harder to understand, than if I actually create the voice message via the phone. Reason for choosing CallingPost CallingPost was recommended by a friend. Review Source CR Carol R. Director Entertainment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ENOPION " June 30, 2020 5.0 CallingPost is my go-to to quickly get in touch with actors and volunteers in a flash. The text and emails options are a big PLUS. Pros Having the ability to set up Groups and call only those. I am impressed at how the product has improved since we started using it. Cons There is nothing to report. The software if easy to use and quick. Reason for choosing CallingPost Ease of use Review Source Talk to a Capterra advisor for free and get results within 15 minutes.
