"Easy to use and integrated church database"
4/5
What do you like best about Planning Center Services?

Planning Center is an easy-to-use system with applications for all the areas I need, and they’re all connected. The information entered for each person is available across the other modules, which makes it simple to keep everything consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planning Center Services?

One of the challenges of Planning Center is that not all the functions can be done from a phone and must be completed on a desktop or laptop computer. That can be frustrating when you are trying to do things on the fly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Using Planning Center Is A Must!"
5/5
What do you like best about Planning Center Services?

What I like best about Planning Center is how easy it is to use. I can find charts, music links, schedule, all at my fingertips. It's pretty consistent as far as performance so no real complaints there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planning Center Services?

From time to time (and not all the time) it doesn't always integrate well with the the music links to say the YouTube platform, but overall it does and there's usually a work around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s highly effective in scheduling volunteers for Sunday mornings and providing them with the necessary resources to prepare for the upcoming week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it’s a very capable and powerful platform, it can also feel a bit overwhelming for a first-time user, especially when the sheer number of options leads to choice fatigue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Hub for Church Service Management"
5/5
What do you like best about Planning Center Services?

I love that Planning Center Services provides a one-stop shop for all organizing. It is very simple and user-friendly, which makes it easy to use. I particularly value the 'People' feature as it helps us keep tabs on so many different details of people's needs, involvement, and contact information. Additionally, the initial setup was pretty easy, although it does take some time to do it effectively. Overall, I am very likely to recommend Planning Center Services to others, giving it a rating of 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planning Center Services?

I'd like to have a single mobile app for all of Planning Center's functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tools for every church"
5/5
What do you like best about Planning Center Services?

We've been using Planning Center People for many years almost daily. It is easy to use and serves our small church so well. It is very quick to implement and keep up to date. It also connects well with other services we use for text, email and pastoral care. We've never had an issue, but customer support is responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Planning Center Services?

For the modules we use there is not really a downside. It's free and that's great! If you added all the products would be a little overwhelming for a small congregation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
