"Flocknote - relevant and helpful. "
3/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

One thing I like about Flocknote is that they have an active social media presence. I like that they have been posting articles on their Facebook page from other sites that I am familiar with (such as Church Juice). They seem like they really want to help churches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

I don't like that I don't really know the creators of the app by looking at their pages. I wish I could find out in a more personal way who to connect with. But this is not a huge deal to me at the end of the day. I just like personal emails, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"this is a great tool to get the word out to your congregation"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

I liked the ability to send text messages and schedule text messages to be sent. This allowed me to use my time more efficiently. I also like that it reached the younger demographic of my community. Flock note also allows me to customize how my community members receive my messages... by email or by text which helps a lot when you have a diverse community.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

The biggest challenge was trying to get my older community members to use email or text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Needs an upgrade"
1/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

We are able to insert our own stories easily! Easy to upload contacts. Inserting polls is a great feature and lets our readers engage in articles and helps us get the feedback we need to improve! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

Lacks customization options, open rates are not accurate, many glitches that need fixing. Not a pretty template when emailed out. Mobile view is a little wonky. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Kaitlin Rawley of Flocknote

Hi Lauren, thanks for your feedback :)

We are hoping to expand our styling options in the future, for sure! I've shared your feedback with the team and we do realize more customization would be super helpful! Right now we've tried to keep the design options as simple as possible as the majority of our users are ministry leaders or volunteers within their church and they often have varying skill levels in design and computer use.

And we're so sorry to hear you are experiencing glitches with flocknote! We do our best to resolve issues asap when they are reported to us. We'd love to hear more about what is giving you trouble, especially the open rate problem you are seeing, and see if we can get it fixed for you :) Our open rates use the industry standard and should be as accurate as any other email marketing tool, so we're happy to investigate. My name is Kait, and you can email me at help@flocknote.com

Have a wonderful day!

God bless,

Kaitlin Rawley

"After an exhaustive search, we gladly chose Flocknote"
5/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

Flocknote is SO easy to use - it's just about foolproof. Truly, anyone can use this and not get lost. Yet at the same time, it's full-featured AND affordable, a combination that is rare. I evaluated 20-25 different texting tools for churches before purchase, and none of them provided the rare combination of ease of use, multiple administrators, affordable pricing, and a large feature set. It's quickly becoming one of my most-used communication tools! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

Honestly, it's pretty difficult to think of anything I don't like. The only thing that would make it better is if it automatically synced with various church management software programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flocknote Review"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

I love the new features that help make the email look professional. It's pretty easy to use once you learn where all the features are located. Most parishioners are able to use it with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

I wish I could get more information about what subscribers are clicking on and looking at. It would help us to design messages that are more likely to be read and get more people to click on what we want them to click on. I don't like how much work you have to do to change the text to join number. We don't change it often, but it's frustrating to have to click on that many things just to change it. You took some features away that we miss, like the robo calls (if an event was cancelled, or snow date occurred), social media integration. There are many features flocknote doesn't have that could tie in nicely, like giving, and customization forms. Currently I feel we are using too many systems to accomplish one thing. Many of our systems overlap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent"
5/5
What do you like best about Flocknote?

Flocknote has allowed our parish to expand our communications. I began with only using it to be able to send out text blasts to our religious education families when there was unexpected weather events. Then I began using it to send reminders to families & the catechists.

I LOVE the ability to set up the groups & to give administrative authority to different people for groups or for everything.

We have expanded to using it for the whole parish. We have various groups set up.

I love how people can sign up on their own or I can add them. They can designate text or email.

I even have sent out notifications for our priest to the entire parish when I have been out of town. I was able to do it from my phone because of Flocknote.

So.many.possibilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flocknote?

Price is always an issue. I also volunteer in a nonprofit group. We are using Flicknote. I really appreciate that it is based on the number of contacts. Maybe if there was a way of tracking duplicates or lack of activity of a user? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
