Communications Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Running w/ a TEAM that is ahead of the curve in the ever changing Social World was the Game Changer!" February 7, 2020 5.0 The problem we faced as a company was we kept telling people to visit us, come to us. Nucleus helped us easily ENGAGE with our customers/people/friends & really do what social platforms are intended for us to be SOCIAL. Pros What I like MOST about this software is that it's Mobile first. The company realizes that every user is going to experience its desired destination on their mobile device first. You can see it in every decision Nucleus makes with their services. So not only do they have us in mind as the customer but they also have our target audience in mind as well. That says a lot about Nucleus. Cons What I like LEAST about this software. I was going to say cost at first but with all the services they keep adding on they cleared up the Cons list. Seriously. Alternatives considered [Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Reason for choosing Nucleus Mobile first. A real TEAM helping you in real TIME. Review Source JH Jordan H.

Cons The fact things are pieces release in strange timelines sometimes gets confusing Review Source PC Paul C. Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Amazing " July 10, 2023 5.0 It’s been amazing since day 1. We’ve used it for several years and it’s made my job so much easier. Pros The ease in which I can make changes to the website is so great! The online giving has been a great help too. Cons I don’t have a con to list. Nucleus has been great. Review Source GC Graham C. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Ministry Saving" February 11, 2020 5.0 So positive. They have been clear, helpful, forthright, fun and model a sense of ministry that is desperately lacking in the sea of ministry options.It is is so easy to accept what they do not yet have because of the way that they behave and treat us as customers and really ministry partners. Pros It is so easy to use. So easy. I have no web site building training whatsoever and have limited time to dedicate to learning. Yet I still, almost single handedly built the site following the very clear tutorials. Cons It is still unable to take my thoughts and implement them without my hands. There are features that are not yet available but there are also new items being added all the time. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Nucleus is SO much easier to use and has more specific options beneficial to church life. Review Source CE Christopher E. Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Game Changer!" February 4, 2020 5.0 Since getting on board with Nucleus, our web presence has improved and we have the best information available for guests and members. Pros What I love about this software is that it has been developed by people who want to provide a clear and simple way for those who are a part of my congregation to take next steps. It's very easy to use and our guests always talk about how easy it is to find what they are looking for on our website. We are so thankful for the ProChurch Tools team! Cons There really isn't anything that I like least about it. The team is intuned with how to make improvements each update is amazing. Reason for choosing Nucleus Price point, customer service, leading-edge technology. Review Source TS Thayne S. Pastor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Church Website Provider You Can Get" February 6, 2020 5.0 Working with Nucleus has been amazing from the beginning AND they have incredible customer support so if you have issues or questions, they are always there to help! Pros This software is extremely easy to use. Also, this format of website WORKS! The team is always updating features as well. Cons There are times that I wish it was a bit more dynamic, but then that would contradict studies that prove that simplicity is what people prefer... So I am not sure... Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) The easy of use and Nucleus is designed for churches. Review Source JE James E. Worship Director & Adult Ministry Coordinator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Absolutely worth ever penny and then some!" February 5, 2020 5.0 I am absolutly thrilled, things that used to take hours now take mere moments and look 10 times better. The nucleus social saves me HOURS of work time. Pros Customer service, look, feel, ease of editing, sermon engine, social media posts Everything is absolutely fabulous and yet they seem to never stop improving. Our website is used more, and is more functional than ever! Cons Nothing...Anything I have not liked they have improved.

Operations Manager Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Nucleus" February 4, 2020 5.0 Pros Nucleus is so easy to use. We’re a medium sized UK church with a small staff team - most of our staff work for our furniture project, and are not directly involved in working for the church - so all things communications and website is down to me (along with a host of other things unrelated to this!). I found Wordpress a fairly steep learning curve, not having been involved in the creation of our site. Migrating to Nucleus has been so simple and easy. Best communications decision we’ve made yet. Cons Limitations on design and customisation - it’s not bad, it’s just very simple and quite static. I know they argue that ‘originality’ is overrated, and they certainly know what they’re talking about, but I never get that moment of opening our site and thinking ‘wow. I love how this looks’. Functionality is great, ease of use is great, but the thing I like least is the limitations on customisation. Review Source DF David F. Pastor Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Literally among the best platforms out there!" February 4, 2020 5.0 Nucleus has taken our site and social engagement to levels I didn’t think were possible. Pros Site creation is beautiful and easy. Nucleus is always innovating and staying current with the industry trends and needs Cons I sat here trying to think of a con...I don’t have one. Alternatives considered [Subsplash](https://www.capterra.com/p/177932/Subsplash/) Reason for choosing Nucleus Best fit, right perspective on innovation Switched from [Sharefaith Presenter](https://www.capterra.com/p/171070/Sharefaith-Presenter/) Value, quality, trusted leadership Review Source RH Ryan H. Media Specialist Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Definitely the best online church central hub on the market right now." February 7, 2020 5.0 Pros I like how frequently the team Nucleus releases updates. They really listen to their customers and give us the functions that we really need. I like being able to do church 24/7 everyday. Everyday, we'll receive notifications of our congregation taking different kinds of next steps online such as signing up for a small group, giving offering, registering for an event, or even simply contacting us for all kinds of requests. It's also very user-friendly from both admin perspective and end-user perspectives. We find it very easy to set up and running; our church members also find it very easy to navigate around too. Cons I wish they could offer 24 hour support or at least support on Sundays. Review Source BA Brian A. Director of operations Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for church management " December 12, 2023 5.0 Overall positive experience, would recommend to others Pros Great church management software, effective and easy to use Cons Not as well known as other church management softwares, others are more user friendly Review Source JT Jennifer T. Administrator Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy" February 7, 2020 5.0 Exceptional. It's simple to use and when we do have a question we have received quick and thorough responses. Pros It's super intuitive. It has high functionality and accomplishes our goals as a church. Cons It could be a little more flexible in design features. Alternatives considered [Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Reason for choosing Nucleus Ease of use and design goals. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Ease of use. Review Source KA Krystal A. Discipleship Minister Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Every church needs this!" February 7, 2020 5.0 My overall experience wit Nucleus has been positive. I’m Ver grateful to the creators. They continue to add so much value to the platform. It just keeps getting better and better. Pros I am tech illiterate and I felt confident using Nucleus to single-handedly recreate our church website. Cons I honestly can’t think of anything that disappointed me about Nucleus. Anything I thought could be improved was. They are extremely responsive to what their customers want. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Reason for choosing Nucleus Before purchasing Nucleus we also considered using Squarespace and Wix. I had built another church website on Wix 5 years prior. We chose Nucleus because it is designed specifically for churches. The creators did so much research into what works today and what is best for our niche that we didn’t see the point trying to reinvent the wheel. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) We switched from Wordpress, because it was too complicated and only 1 computer savvy person in our church new how to use it.

IT, Sound, Web, Social Media Ministries Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Nucleus " February 7, 2020 5.0 A committed volunteer can set-up and maintain a website. Pros Ease of use, anyone with average computer skills can set-up and maintain a website with a giving platform, sermon audio, video, podcast, and notes. Plus you will receive daily social media posts that can be shared with on your social media sites. Cons There are less expensive alternatives but after a year of reviewing, trying, and comparing Nucleus to other website builders. We chose Nucleus. Review Source CH Celia H. Assistant Secretary Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Saves me time & is easy to use" February 6, 2020 5.0 I needed to get a webpage up and running quickly and don't know much about designing webpages. Nucleus was intuitive. I created pages and subpages and was up and running in no time. Now, over 15 months later, I have a lot of pages designed--some active, some not. I just wish I could create folders for them and organize them as I want them. Pros Ease of use--you don't have to know a lot about designing a webpage. Cons \-Lack of being able to organize the pages into categories and order that I want (on the administrative side) -Cost Reason for choosing Nucleus Looked easy to use and it integrated with our database (Planning Center People) Review Source CD Christopher D. Worship Minister Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Nucleus is AMAZING" February 7, 2020 5.0 LOVE IT Pros Nucleus has many options to keep your church relevant in the fast-changing communications world. The website builder alone is super easy to use, attractive, and modern. Cons The look of the Nucleus based website took a minute to get used to. It is a card-based website builder that I wasn't familiar with at the time but now I love it. Switched from [Sharefaith Presenter](https://www.capterra.com/p/171070/Sharefaith-Presenter/) I was looking for a more modern looking website. Review Source JC Jesse C. Worship Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Hands down best Church Website builder" February 8, 2020 5.0 Very satisfying. I will continue to be a loyal customer of their products. Pros How easy it was to set up and how intuitive it was to navigate. Cons It was the lack of customization but I know it was because it was just laying the ground work. And the team has since came out with several revision to add more customization. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) Reason for choosing Nucleus ease of use and instant support Review Source BC Ben C. Worship Pastoe Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Nucleus for a small church website" February 5, 2020 5.0 The customer support is second to none! \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and his team are always helping people through issues that may arise! Pros The ease of use! \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] and his team have created a product that helps take all of the guess work out of building a church website that is functional but also visually appealing. Cons Compared to other options, the price is a little higher. Also, because they do take a lot of the guess work out of the design process, your hands are tied on some customizations unless you are familiar with a little bit of coding. Switched from [Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Customer support and ease of use Review Source AD Amanda D. Admin Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy." February 8, 2020 5.0 The best part of Nucleus is that it is starting to move our needed info, our sign-ups, our resources, to our site. Because it's so easy to change quickly, I have often been able to put together a clean and beautiful page at the 11th hour. Pros This is crazy easy for anyone to design their website. Content is important, but design, imo, might be more important because good design gets people to your content. Very easy for anyone to go in an edit or change around. Can do advanced widgets easily. Best part - the customer service and help is on point. They are not just prompt and helpful, they can be downright hilarious which turns around a frustrating moment. Customer service that is hilarious? Yup. It's a win. Cons I don't like that I cannot geo-tag preventing me to go into some advanced SEO tactics. I don't like that the mobile site utilizes swipe rather than scroll. I wish we could pick. Review Source LF Larisa F. Social Media Advisor Online Media Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best custom website building software! " February 5, 2020 5.0 We build our website from scratch with Nucleus. Their examples and templates were very helpful. The prices for their services are very reasonable. Pros I am so satisfied with their products and service. I am completely new to website building and every step of the way was seamless. They respond within minutes to most requests, help with coding when needed, provide assistance with podcast upload and are always on top of updates and new releases. Cons I have no complaints, everything I needed help with has been resolved. I see no issues with their services. Reason for choosing Nucleus Their customer support and price. Review Source DT Dalton T. Tech director Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Amazing church connection website " February 4, 2020 5.0 Pros Ease of use. This website building does the hard work for you, while also opening the door for advanced code injection for more experienced web builders. Cons It can be a little overwhelming with the number of features it offers up front, but the tutorial walkthroughs and basic templates do a awesome job getting you through it all! Switched from [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/) This system was designed specifically for my business style, though I can see it being used in many types of businesses, not just churches! Review Source JW Justin W. Creative Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Nucleus Is The Best" February 6, 2020 5.0 Nucleus has been a great product for us thus far, however we are going to be adding a traditional website as our front-facing page and switching Nuclues to our “insider” portal. Pros It literally took me 14hrs to implement. Start to finish. We made the switch from a bulky Wordpress site last year and the process was nearly painless. Planning Center integration is amazing as well. Cons As a feature of the simplicity, it is difficult to fully customize each aspect of your site. Not super friendly for those unfamiliar with CSS coding. Review Source EW Edward W. Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries Religious Institutions Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A giant leap forward" February 6, 2020 5.0 Excellent service, excellent help, excellent interface. Very intuitive. Pros We updated our website several years ago, moving it from beyond out of date to merely out of date with a different website builder. It was a huge leap forward from where we started, but one look at Nucleus we knew that we had the opportunity to make website a hub of activity that would draw in more people and give them the connections they needed in order to take the next step in their faith. Cons The program does not provide help migrating information to the new website design. Alternatives considered [Wix](https://www.capterra.com/p/169007/Wix/)[Squarespace](https://www.capterra.com/p/143461/Squarespace/) Reason for choosing Nucleus Nucleus met our needs, exceeded our expectations, and was formatted purposefully towards connecting to our parish. Review Source JW Joe W. Worship Leader/web admin Religious Institutions Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Nucleus for churches" February 9, 2020 5.0 Pros Ease of learning and use, plus customer service is thorough and personalized. Additionally, they created a community for users to interact and share knowledge and experiences as well as to ask questions. Cons I haven't personally experienced any issues. Other users have pointed things out in the aforementioned community, which have been addressed promptly by admins. Switched from [WordPress](https://www.capterra.com/p/131687/WordPress/) Had been following the wealth of free resources provided by the \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. When I saw the format and research accompanying it was something I wanted to present right away. I was so glad when our church's elders agreed to switch. Review Source SG Samantha G. Communications Director Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Website Option for Churches" February 5, 2020 5.0 Pros You need very little other than basic technical skills to get a site up and running and keep it updated. Support is efficient and effective. They are very receptive to suggestions for updates. Cons It’s still new, so there are some kinks to work out. But Support is so receptive that these kinks really haven’t been too difficult to manage. Review Source Similar Products Featured
