## Reviews

### "Easy Connection and Follow Up" — 5.0/5

> **Trevor** | *17 December 2020* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Fairly simple to learn and use most if not all of the functions. What you don't understand they provide quick and easy support with an amazing team that replies extremely fast to messages.
> 
> **Cons**: Have not really found any cons (not just saying that)
> 
> Fantastic. They have shown over and over again that they will go the extra mile for you and your team. To top it off they are constantly sending us sweet swag; new books/socks/snacks. It really is impossible to not be engaged with them.

### "A wonderful tool" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *15 May 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Hands down what I like most about Text In Church is the automation\!
> 
> **Cons**: I didn’t care much for the limited number of texts you’re allowed to send per subscription tier. I’ve used another texting service that allows unlimited messages to be sent for one flat rate. This way, I feel like I can freely communicate and hold conversations without feeling like I’m using up valuable text credits.
> 
> For a small church staff, guest follow up can sometimes fall by the wayside among all the other things that need to happen on a weekly basis. At least at my church that was the case. Text In Church lets you set up and customize a comprehensive guitar followup protocol that’s near foolproof\! It’s a wonderful communication tool\!

### "Good for small company" — 3.0/5

> **Mylinda** | *4 October 2019* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy to setup and get started.   Straightforward instructions.  Help and suppport are quick and easy to talk with when needed.   The groups are easy to setup and use.
> 
> **Cons**: We found it was limited for the different types of emails we wanted to send as far as choices of fonts, styling of emails, etc.   The "workflow" steps recommended for sending repeat emails and texts have not been good for our use.

### "When we are ready for this step for our church text-In)church will be our choice" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *26 July 2018*
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, features, workflows, support, etc. This company and software has it all. If you want to make follow up easy and get away from all the confusion, look into text-in-church. This isn't a replacement for real people connections but will be the main tool in your toolbelt to making those first connections.
> 
> **Cons**: We are not jumping on board yet as we are not at a church size that can't handle our connection cards and our system without a text service. Our teams are more than capable to connect and help with next steps. As we grow and the system gets more complicated, we will be jumping on board.

### "Very Efficient System for Church Leaders" — 5.0/5

> **Robert** | *13 March 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Who would have thought that Texting would be a good thing in a congregation? However, this software understands that people, especially Millennial generations, use their phones for communicating, giving, and worship. This is an efficient software product that uses modern technology and teaches congregational leaders the value of texting for ministry.
> 
> **Cons**: We used this as a trial and it seemed to work well. Was difficult and that is why we were not able to stick with it--and we had limited funding.
