Connections Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/6/2026 "Intuitive, Reliable Church Communication That Keeps Everyone Engaged" 5/5 What do you like best about Clearstream? What we love most about Clearstream is how simple it makes communicating with our church. It has become one of our most valuable tools for keeping people informed, engaged, and connected. The platform is intuitive, reliable, and easy for both our staff and our congregation to use. The biggest advantage is the ability to send timely, personalized text messages that people actually read. Features like keyword sign-ups, automated workflows, scheduling, segmentation, and two-way conversations allow us to communicate effectively without adding complexity. The customer support has also been outstanding—responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping us succeed. Clearstream has helped us increase event participation, improve follow-up, and strengthen connections with our church family. It has saved our team time while making our communication feel more personal, and we highly recommend it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? Honestly, there isn't much we dislike about Clearstream. Overall, any minor limitations have been far outweighed by the platform's reliability, ease of use, and the outstanding support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? Clearstream has solved one of our biggest communication challenges: reaching people quickly, effectively, and personally. Email open rates continue to decline, but text messaging allows us to connect with our congregation in a way that is timely and actually gets seen. The platform has streamlined our communication across multiple ministries, reduced the amount of time our staff spends managing outreach, and made it easy to target the right audience with the right message. We've seen better event attendance, improved volunteer communication, and more meaningful engagement because people receive the information they need when they need it. For our church, Clearstream has become more than a mass texting platform—it's an essential tool for building relationships and keeping our church family connected.

This is one of the most useful apps we have access to for the church. The fact that it works seamlessly with Planning Center Online. It provides both the ability to communicate and safeguards for our staff. The cost is in line with normal programs of this nature. The support has been very helpful and quick to respond and adjust features for our use. The user interface is easy to understand and responsive. Overall, great product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? The only small change I would make, is the ability to add responses to texts when using the app vs being on a computer. I like being able to thumb up or heart a message so they know it is a real person interacting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? The ability to communicate with an identifiable number. The ability to not give my personal number out, as well as have other staff have access to my messages for safety and oversight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Associate Pastor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 6/29/2026 "Clearstream: The answer to our communication needs" 5/5 What do you like best about Clearstream? Clearstream is easy to use, and their customer service has been exceptional to work with. I have easily trained people who are not familiar with technology to use it and they love it. The cost can't be beat. We are also using the microsite feature and that has been awesome. I love that our people can scan a QR code and find a lot of information that would have taken to long to communicate outloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? We have been using Clearstream for about 6 months and I can't say that I have found something I don't like about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? Clearstream is helping communicate information in a more efficient way. It allows us to text specific groups of people information easier than trying to do it through a phone's messaging app. The microsite is allowing us to get more information to people in a faster and easier way.

I love how easy it is to send texts and emails with Clearstream. Scheduling them is so amazing; I can set my whole month in one night and it's all done, making it incredibly convenient. It's so easy to use and to teach my assistant how to use it too. I've been using it for over 2 years now and it's definitely a keeper. Also, the price for everything it does is just perfect. The setup was a breeze, and customer service was there all the way, making the learning curve very minimal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? I sometimes would like to be able to update the email address of the members. You can't unfortunately; you have to delete and create a new profile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Clearstream to easily communicate with our large church congregation.

I appreciate the ability to reach out to people across all the different areas of our church, and the option to create subaccounts that others can also use. I also find the integration with PCO extremely useful. The pricing is affordable and when I have needed support, they have been very quick to respond and have also solved my issue or answered my questions in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? My main downside with Clearstream is the cost of buying additional credits when you run out during the month. Those credits feel quite expensive, and although paid credits do roll over month to month if unused (unlike the credits included with the plan), I still don't think they're worth purchasing. I try to avoid buying them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Clearstream solving and how is that benefiting you? One issue I have experienced so far is the ability to narrow the field of available phone numbers when setting up a new subaccount. I try to have all my subaccounts follow some sort of pattern but when setting a new one up, am unable to narrow the search. Due to this, I always have to reach out to support to help me find a suitable number. The other issue is the ability to move credits from one subaccount to another. Instead of being able to just say that I want a certain # of credits to move from one accoun to another. I have to figure out what I want to move and then subtract it from the one account. Then the credits move into the main account. I can then go to the subaccount I want to move them into and add them in there. It just doesn't seem very easy or user friendly.

Happy to hear you've enjoyed the Planning Center integration, and working with our support team! We appreciate your feedback. You have some good thoughts, and I'll pass those along to our dev team! If you have a month where you're planning on sending more messages and need more credits (like around Easter or Christmas), I'd recommend temporarily upgrading your plan to the next tier - you'll be able to get more credits for a better rate, and can downgrade as soon as the month is over. Just reach out to our support team if you have any questions. They'd love to help! :) Current UserValidated ReviewerSource: Organic ![Bo B.](/assets/transparent-ad5be28fbcd25b7b08d2cebe1d957125437fb5407d75ee717965ad22c8808791.gif "Bo B.") BB Bo B.

Clearstream does a great job of integrating with CCB (from personal experience). Their keywords also work really well for first time impressions or to help people along in a process. They also have fantastic customer service that has always helped me figure out any issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Clearstream? With multiple people managing the same accounts, I would like to see a feature where incoming messages can be assigned to specific users.

So happy to hear Clearstream has helped you reach your church and connect with your people. That's a great thought on assigning messages - I'll pass that along to our dev team! In the meantime, you can re-mark messages as Unread after opening them (swipe right in the mobile app), then mark them as Done once someone has responded (swipe left). Hope that helps!
