MH Michael H. Lead Pastor Religious Institutions Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/26/2019 "great church resource" 4.5/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? Church Community Builder keeps our records of people and giving in line. Great tool for churches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq?

Recommendations to others considering ChurchStaq: looking for church management software? these guys get it right and do it for an honest price. We have been pleased through the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? Online giving and managing giving are unified and keep people information in place!

It is very user friendly and intuitive. People can give in a matter of seconds without getting frustrated. Our church adopted it pretty quickly without many issues. It also helps our church stay technologically up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? The cost. It is a pretty significant investment. There's a monthly fee in addition to the transaction fees. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ChurchStaq: It is a great tool to help increase online giving but make sure to do a cost/benefit analysis as it can be on the expensive side and might not be worth it for all churches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? Pushpay has made it easier for people to give online and on their cell phones. It also syncs perfectly with our church management software and allows for better record keeping. Pushpay also helps us with donor development as we are able to customize messages to givers, thank them, and see if their giving starts to lapse. It also lets us know if someone's gift was declined because of an expired card which our old system never did. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The database system is great and has been very helpful for our organization. The ability to schedule rooms and the use of other company materials/property has also been really helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? The calendar function is archaic. The system tries to do so much that in the end it often fails to really excel at anything. If you want to delete a group, you must first remove everyone from it AND all past events. This can take forever and makes keeping the system slim and functioning at its best really hard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ChurchStaq: It's a good database system but takes lots of time to implement and to get staff members able to understand and use the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? It has been helpful for database management and calendar functions for our church.

Pastor Emeritus Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/5/2019 "Pushpay makes Giving Easy" 5/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? The simplicity of the pushpay system. Once the app is installed and you have an account setup it is extremely easy to give to your church or non-profit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? I don't have anything to that I would consider a negative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ChurchStaq: Pushpay is a great way to encourage folks to give to a church or non-profit. Its ease of use and technology is a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? Having the app and linking it to our ministry has made it easy for people to give for special things. I don't know that we have seen an uptick in giving, but I think for newer people this makes an easy transition for giving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Associate Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/4/2019 "Efficient" 4.5/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? I like that Pushpay is a such an efficient way to give. Everything is made clear and simple with a strategy for how to create reoccurring givers. That was the key reason for our selection of them and why I recommend them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? One the weaknesses is that they over sell how much they are going to help you roll out your app. You really have to do a lot of the work on the design yourself. Additionally, it can be difficult to get your representative to anticipate your needs. Sometimes you have to spell out very clearly what you're looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? Pushpay is for us meant the ability for people to give quickly in church. It takes around 60 seconds for someone to give and that's really key. One additional benefit I've discovered is how helpful their push notifications are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Communications Director Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/4/2019 "Simple for both users and admins" 4.5/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? It's super simple for users to set up an account and make a payment. The site is mobile-friendly and we are able to customize how it looks so it has our logo and images. Easy to track transactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? Some of the reporting features could be improved. For example there's a "notes" field you can use from administrative point of view, but you can't search or run reports based on what's in the notes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? It was very easy for people to use. We switched from another payment system and most people didn't even realize it was a changed.

Senior Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 1/16/2019 "PushPay misrepresented and mislead us into their program" 0/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? The ability for our people to give online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? PushPay guaranteed that we would get a 5% increase in our giving during the first year that we used them or we would get our first year annual fee returned to us. We didn't reach the guaranteed 5% increase. They gave us NO coaching in the process. When we attempted to collect on their guarantee, it took us nearly a year and a half to get them to make a decision ... and then it was in the negative! No return of the money. They told us we hadn't done one of the steps they required. Really? It takes a year and a half (and a lot of wasted phone time and emails) to tell us we hadn't done one of their steps. It seems like that would be pretty obvious right up front. After all, since they immediately turned us down, why the heck didn't they know the reason we had been turned down? Companies don't turn down their guarantees without a reason. Yet it took PushPay a year and a half to give us a reason. If they saw we weren't implementing one of their requirements, why didn't they coach us to do it? I would NEVER recommend this company to anyone. We are still using it -- only because it would be a waste of time and money to switch over to another company. However, if you are new to the online giving world, please look elsewhere. You will hunt for hours to track down a phone number or responsible person within their company to get any help from them. If our church did business the way PushPay does, no one would attend our church. When we told them we would be writing a review that would reflect poorly about PushPay, they only tried to upscale us into a more costly area of PushPay. Really? We aren't even satisfied with what we currently have. Why would we want to go deeper with your company? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? We are not solving any business problems with PushPay. We have one benefit (that we could also get in using another company who does the same work) and that is our people can give online or using our app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/4/2019 "Great service, intuitive design, excellent customer service" 4/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? The thing I like best about Pushpay is the ease of use for people who don't use checkbooks or carry cash to give to the church as part of their act of worship. I also really like the ability to create different options for giving, so if we have a special project in the church it's easy for people to participate in that through online giving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? I guess the thing I struggle with the most is keeping the app up do date with current information. I love the tool, but need help keeping it current. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering ChurchStaq: I would highly recommend Pushpay. It's a great service that fills a much needed gap in many churches in terms of giving opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? The biggest problem solved has been providing online giving options to the church. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Has great ease of use, not complicated, and allows the church to do most things that are needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? Wish there was a way to capture attendance better and for our volunteers to check in (with name tags) much like the students do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Executive Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/4/2019 "Pushpay has made giving easy for our church members!" 4/5 What do you like best about ChurchStaq? Pushpay has made giving easy for our church members! We previously had to use multiple softwares, but now Pushpay provides one, easy solution! Also, data entry is really easy and volunteers have commented on how much they love the ease of Pushpay compared to Fellowship One. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about ChurchStaq? The backend reporting has limited capability. We used Fellowship One prior to Pushpay and the reports module was more customizable. Now, we're having to go back to using Google Spreadsheets for certain custom reporting that our team is used to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is ChurchStaq solving and how is that benefiting you? It's a one-stop giving solution. Our church previously used three different platforms and only two of the three synced together. This has saved our administrative team a lot of time in the office as all giving in now through Pushpay. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
