## ProPresenter Reviews
  ### 1. Easy for New Users and Widely Familiar in Churches

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chad M. | Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 28, 2026

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Ease of use for new users, also very popular amongst churches so many people have become familiar with how to use it.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The features can be too much for non power users, sometimes interface seems convoluted with features we never use.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Need easy presentation software that syncs with songs lyrics easily.

  ### 2. Easy to Use, Feature-Rich, and Packed with Helpful YouTube Tutorials

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Roberto H. | Estimator, Construction, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 04, 2026

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I am one of the greatest ProPresentar fans. Easy to use and packed with features. I can find plenty of tutorials on YouTube, and there are paid YouTubers, so I count that as a form of customer support. It also integrates with many other apps. I use it about twice a week.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The only issue we encountered was a few bugs when the license was close to expiring. Also, it’s meant to be used with iOS. I know that’s better in almost every way, but it makes it more difficult to switch over and start using it.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

All media presentation at church.

  ### 3. Greatest Church Presentation Software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Major Robert C. | CEO/Administrator/Corps Officer, Non-Profit Organization Management, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2025

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

It is so easy to use.  It really is plug and play.  The tutorials are clear and easy to follow.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

There is a little bit of a learning curve but once you go through the tutorials, you will have a good grasp of the program and how to utilize it to the best of your ability.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I was using a different presentation software but they kept updating and making changes.  As a result, the program would crash on a Sunday in the middle of the service.  Not good.

  ### 4. ProPresenter for Non-Profits

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bryce P. | Assistant Director of Communications, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2025

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is a great tool for us to use for presentations in various gatherings, board meetings, and team celebrations.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Often times ProPresenter can be glitchy; however, updates are typically quick to release.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Utilizing multiple display options and importing/organizing/displaying media

  ### 5. Every Venue, Every Need

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Geoffrey H. | Owner/Operator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 16, 2024

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The flexibility of the program - I can use it for the biggest or smallest venues I have and it works great for each purpose.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The stability of the program sometimes isn't up to par. Troubleshooting is usually pretty smooth, but the amount of crashes I've seen from ProPresenter isn't conducive to a live-production program.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter lets me use whatever screens a given venue has to make the smoothest and most visually appealing worship environment possible.

  ### 6. Propresenter

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2023

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

we use  Propresenter for our church and  coporpate event and the over all product is great product and has been a great  addition to our work flow.  As a AV Director I like how I can use piece of software that can be used for church applications aswell as corporate events. The software for me was esay to integrate into the church's workflow as well as any corpoate events and the software remembers the layout of the screens so i dont have to always reconfigure it.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Some of the software updates have caused propresentor to not function properly causing difficulty using product effectivley during services.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having one piece of software that can be used in Church applications or corporate events.

  ### 7. Gaming changing Presentation Software

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 04, 2023

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Propresenter is everything you ever wanted in a presentation software suite and more! I love the deep level of control, automation, routing, and styling for any level of presentation. Whether you are a small church or conference up to a huge event, Proprsenter gives you the tools to do anything you need. They also update the software suite to make it easier and more robust.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

I wish moving presentations were easier between computers. It is confusing how to move presentation files well. I also wish they had a cloud storage option for presentations so you could work on the files in the cloud on one computer and have it synced to another. This would help with colaboration.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Propresenter to run graphics, videos, and confidence monitors for live streams, live events, and hybrid events. It allows me to pre-build presentations and set automation to make events easy to run. You can also have multiple video outputs for stage monitors, speaker monitors and alpha channels for live streaming.

  ### 8. Industry Standard for a Reason (or many reasons!)

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David C. | Pastor for Creative Arts, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I love that ProPresenter is used by so many houses of worship (churches) across the country in various contexts. The user base is so large that there is always someone using it in a similar way or running into similar problems to help troubleshoot. The features in ProPresenter 7 allow us to send NDI signals to multiple monitors, and we have appreciated the ease of getting volunteers up-to-speed in using the software too.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Some of the bugs in the PC version of ProPresenter don't exist in the Mac version, so when we encounter PC-specific bugs it takes a bit more work to resolve. The support team (an annual fee) is awesome, but the amount of bugs in each build can get annoying, especially if it is something specific to your own context.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter allows us to display lyrics and videos easily and clearly for our gathered worship services. We also use it to send slides and videos to the livestream computer. It is a relatively stable and reliable solution with so many potential bells and whistles that we don't even get to in our rather simple usage.

  ### 9. ProPresenter is the absolute BEST presentation software for churches (and others too!)

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stephen J. | Associate Pastor of Worship Ministries, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is designed for display. It is easy to use with almost no learning curve. It has almost every feature conceivable for someone who wants to take their display project to the next level.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

SOme of the older features (like Telestrator, where you can draw on your slides with a stylus) are not incorporated in Version 7 and forward. The return of those features would be very helpful in later versions.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In my context, I need to display song lyrics and sermon points to the congregation while also showing more technical information to the people on stage (lyrics for the current and next slide, timers, current time, etc.). I also need something that allows me to stream an NDI input from my iPad when I teach, and send an overlay to my video switch for lower-thirds lyrics for our livestream. That is what ProPresenter does, and arguably that is what it is built for.

  ### 10. Best Presentation Software in the Business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark t. | Pastor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2023

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Propresenter is consistently the most reliable, highest quality, and most full-featured live presentation software.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The learning curve for setup is a little steep but using the software live is intuitive.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to present lyrics, presentations, videos, audio, timers and more with seamless integration and high quality output.

  ### 11. Used for Church and Business

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Patrick R. | Project Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 28, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I love the integration features that can be used both in business presentations and in Church services. We use PP in worship service and I loved it so much that I use it now at work as well.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Some of the multi-screen features need to be revamped, I think. The concept is great, but the execution is spotty at times.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being able to captivate my audience while remaining organized and straightforward (or complex if needed).

  ### 12. Great Program, Some Challenges

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 09, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

PP allows us to creat in-depth presentations for our church in multiple settings. There is really very little PP cannot accomplish. We send to screens around our campus with ease and haven't run into much that we haven't been able to do for our context.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

When PP updated to Pro7, there is a lot you can do, but training our volunteers and part time staff has been challenging. They run into issues and have difficulty troubleshooting the problems on the fly. This has left us in instances with the entire program shutting down during a worship service on multiple occasions.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It solves our need to project information to screens in a quality fashion. We have lyrics, message slides, videos, announcements, and more that need to be seen by our congregation and PP does that pretty well.

  ### 13. ProPresenter Gets It

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Danny G. | Media Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 06, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

We use this software in a church production environment.  It gives us a one-stop-shop to have everything available for our service.  Also, they have done a great job incorporating other developers into their software that allow us to add hardware and or software that works with ProPresenter allowing triple-wide screens, bible apps, and lyrics from SongSelect.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The licensing they require you to have is one downfall that I am not a fan of.  If you have a corporate license for the actual software, you still have to have an individual permit for the addon to the software for each workstation rather than a "corporate" style license for those add-ons.  The one that comes to mind is the Matrox TripleWide license.  You have to have the hundreds (I don't remember the price) for each workstation using this function.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to handle all our service presentations with one computer with the new PP7 updates.  This allows us to control what is streamed that is different from what is presented to the lobby and elsewhere.

  ### 14. Present like a pro!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Josh S. | Media and Communications Minister, Religious Institutions, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

What I like best about Pro Presenter is the software gives you the ability to layout the entire playlist for your event or service and keeps all of the behind-the-scenes tech work behind the scenes.  You do all the work of loading graphics, media, text, and many other things on the computer, but to the audience, all they see is only the items you want to push to your screens.  It always allows you to make any last-minute or on-the-fly changes to the presentation without the audience ever knowing.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The only real place the software is lacking is in the media creation portion.  If you need to design a slide with text and pictures or background, it can be not easy if you want to do anything past the basic editing.  In something like PowerPoint, it allows for much more options and advanced design.  It isn't a huge deal, but it just means you will need to do most of your creation outside of Pro Presenter.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

I would say if you need a presenting software, this is the place to start and try before the others. You won't be dissapointed.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem that this software solves is a way to professionally present something to a crowd or audience without showing all the behind-the-scenes tech work like dragging videos or pictures onto the screen and changing slides.  It also solves the problem of disorganized things and allows you to set a playlist of all of your presenting needs for each presentation.

  ### 15. ProPresenter Knows

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kim E. | Accountant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter keeps improving their products to meet the new challenges that are brought about in the Worship House environment.  Anytime someone has a new idea, and that is brought up to the team at ProPresenter they are quick to investigate, and if they see a positive to the request, they make it happen.  Also, their customer support is phenomenal.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The costs that are associated with upgrades to the software at times seem substantial especially for smaller churches.  If you want to add a module for multiple screens, then expect to pay the price for that upgrade.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

Go through the training that is available on YouTube.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This newest software, version 7, gives us the ability to use one computer to run multiple outputs, thus alleviating the need for multiple volunteers.  Also, it has the ability to live-stream straight from the software if that is something you are interested in.

  ### 16. Works well and is feature rich to do what I need it to!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 08, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter has many features that allow me to be flexible in however I want my worship service to look. I especially like the looks features to do lower thirds.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Coming from Proclaim, the one thing I miss is cloud editing/uploading capabilities built into the program.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter is our solution for getting our livestream out to our Boxcast encoder and is our solution for projected graphics and lower thirds. It is very flexible in meeting our lower thirds needs and can easily be formatted via themes.

  ### 17. Awesome presentation software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nikhil D. | Team Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The Option to present different slides on multiple screens like stage screen and audience screen.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Limited stock animations options are available at present as compared to PowerPoint.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Needed a software that would allow the choir to see the upcoming lyrics whereas, the audience to see the current lyrics. And propresenter solved this issue easily.

  ### 18. Wish there was more official training on how-to-use

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan T. | $mart $tart Wage Negotiation Workshop Facilitator &amp; Ambassador, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 25, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I wasn't that impressed by ProPresenter, and it didn't find it easy to use or to find trainings on.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

I wish there were more official tutorials or training for ProPresenter either in the program user-interface or on the brand website. It was not easy to find someone to train me or to follow along on the YouTube videos. More training would've provided a better, more satisfying experience for using the program.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a former Technology & Communications Coordinator for a church, I began training in ProPresenter to help aggregate all of the weekly service livestream needs into one program. ProPresenter was used as a better alternative to a simply a PowerPoint slide. With ProPresenter, we were essentially able to combine the slides into the video format with overlays and word text for caption.

  ### 19. Best Presentation Software out there

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 21, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Propresenter is lightyears ahead of the competition in the church presentation marketspace.  The new integration with multitracks to provide live lyric control is a gamechanger once you get it set to your preferences.  No more need to push slides manually.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Had to go to tech support with an app instability issue when we first upgraded.  However, once we figured out the issue we were good to go.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The amount of control over lights and lower thirds and different stage displays and looks is gamechanging.  Its definitely professional level software.

  ### 20. The Go-To App for Churches

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Barry W. | Creative Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The ease of use, rock-solid performance, and power of this application is what makes this the go-to app presentation program for churches.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Although there is a lot of power under the hood, as you use this more and more, the program does take longer to load as you use it more. 

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

ProPresenter is the application for churches that are projecting video-- the power and versatility of this program makes it invaluable.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Presenting worship lyrics in programs like Power Point is not ideal since that's not what it's made for. This is engineered specifically for what churches need. This is easy for volunteers to just walk up and learn, but when you want to dig deeper, is extremely versatile. 

  ### 21. Favorite Presentation Software Available.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew H. | Director of Video, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Renewed Vision is constantly working to make their products better, which I appreciate because the live production and video industry is constantly changing and having a software that improves with it is crucial. It's also very easy to train volunteers to operate.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Depending on your needs it can be costly to build out a computer that can handle everything you're trying to do.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

i've used almost the majority of other presentation software that is out there, and ProPresenter is hands-down the best.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is easy to use, and easy to train people to use. It's flexible in that it allows you to recall files quickly and import new files quickly on the fly without having to have much pre-production work.

  ### 22. Very Impressed

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

There are tons of amazing features that we can do with ProPresenter

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

As of now, there isn't anything we dislike.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

We looked at several other pieces of software to do what we needed, and nothing came close to ProPresenter. Definitely a must if you're serious about improving your church tech.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use ProPresenter to show information slides and lyrics to our church. We only utilize a small portion of the available features, and it has been a great experience so far.

  ### 23. Very comprehensive an tailored for church needs

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Once it's all set up with templates and everything, Propresenter is very easy to use for volunteers

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Graphic card drivers can sometimes be a little shaky when using multiple displays, also, pricing is high for just upgrading to newer versions.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Screen presentations

  ### 24. Great software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ben C. | Tech Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 19, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Ease of use.  Backwards compatible with existing ProPresenter 5 files.  Fun new features.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Right now our search function in our library is a little wonky.  If I type in the title of a song, I get anywhere from 50-80 results that don't even match what I've searched.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There aren't any business problems that I've noticed.  The campus license feature is a great benefit.  It's a one time purchase and I can load it on as many 

  ### 25. ProPresenter Is Great

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Very powerful, gives you a lot of control to display exactly what you want how you want. Easy to change things on the fly.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The new release has a little bit of a steeper learning curve than previous versions. Some things that were changed were things that did not need to be changed.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

Give yourself some time to learn the software. Take time to set everything up right in the beginning and it will payoff in the long run with being easier to use down the road.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using it to project lyrics and sermon slides at our church

  ### 26. If You Want The Best Looking Presentation, You Need The Best Company Offering It Out There.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kyler S. | Production Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 29, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is by far the most superior and easiest to use presentation software available due to the simple layout and the excellent feature of having a presenting screen and a central hub to oversee everything you have lined up in your slideshow.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The latest version of ProPresenter seemed to overcomplicate things that were trademarks of ProPresenter for many years. Many changes felt like changes only to make it look different or justify the price for upgrading.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a church, we solve how to present graphics, lyrics, and sermon slides in a clean and nondistracting way every Sunday. The most significant benefit is that ProPresenter is consistent.

  ### 27. Too much for us

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dan C. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Love that the basic version is simple to use and you can do all you want and need to do to run a church service

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

How big the software now is and the drain on even a newish computer system! It also costs too much compared to competitors

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With the watermark I was able to offer free services to a small group which would've been hard to do without that option

  ### 28. Great presentation software!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 15, 2022

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Great software, easy to navigate, has great databases to easily pull song lyrics in. Handles content very well.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

It can be buggy. We use it on mac and it has crashed a few times during high stress moments.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Church worship, sermon slides, announcements, et.

  ### 29. Love it!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jami B. | Associate Pastor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 30, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I kive being able to incorporate live streams straight into to presentation.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Like anything else, I wish the price was less. Being a church, we are on a budget.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to present the congregation with amazing slides and also multiple versions of the scripture.

  ### 30. Propresenter a Plus

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 20, 2021

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The program is relatively user friendly and there are many video tutorials online to learn all the intricate things you can do with it. Works great for presenting worship lyrics at church.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Settings change occasionally and I can't figure out why.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We need to be able to present during service and we are able to do that well. The ability to link to SongSelect is a huge benefit and time saver.

  ### 31. An essential

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Josh H. | Worship Pastor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 15, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter makes our Sunday Morning church services flow seamlessly with all the media that we add into the services.  It amply provides for our lyric/video display needs. When leading worship, having. trusted software to help worship services run smoothly and also create a seamless, undistracting aspect to worship is a valuable piece to incorporate into worship.  ProPresenter has been my go-to and is always providing me with the best service... the one I need.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The integration of multiple video outputs can sometimes glitch offline. Though, ProPresenter has a great relationship with the local church, it's users.  They are quick to make improvements and stay up with the times.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

This is the best presentation software for worship services. I have used MediaShout, EasyWorship, and a handful of others over the tenure of my local church ministry and ProPresenter, by far, is the best in the market.  Take advantage of the added options that ProPresenter offers.  We have used it to project a triple wide image with our Environmental projection computer, as well.  The Parent Company, Renewed Vision, has a great understanding of what churches need.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When we use ProPresenter in our services, it allows us to unify evryone present and to stream to those watching at home. The ability to customize lyric templates keeps the words to the songs readable and modern.  The ability to create templates for sermon series allows us to "brand" our series and create a cohesiveness to the asthetics.

  ### 32. ProPresenter is the very best church presentation software. It is an essential investment.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew O. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 30, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is your one-stop resource for all of your church presentation needs. We use it for projecting the lyrics for our congregational worship (hymns & worship songs). We utilize a library of background motions that easily "drop" behind the lyrics and help create a more visually interesting and consistent thematic aspect to our services. As the pastor, I no longer use Keynote or Powerpoint to build my sermon presentations. I prepare my sermon presentations directly in ProPresenter. I love the formatting options they offer as well as how easy it is to use or create slide backgrounds for my messages in ProPresenter. They have all of the major English Bible versions for download purchases directly into the app and you can format how you want your Bible text to display in a lot of different templates. Very cool and easy to use. You also have the ability to create and save your own Templates and then you can easily switch the layout of your songs by switching to a different template (for instance, you can have all of your lyrics be centered for a song or you could change and use a template where all of your lyrics are formatted to the lower third of the screen). The Templates feature lets you make major changes to an entire "document" with just a few clicks. Super easy to add video clips, video soundtracks, or your own ministry videos right into your service timeline to use in the service. You can also audio tracks or sound effects and cue them to specific slides in a presentation or as their own separate item in the playlist. I personally LOVE the way you can create a Presentation Timeline - this allows you to automate the playback of your slides. We use this to create lyric presentations to accompany and play in time with audio soundtracks. It's like making your own lyric videos. Very cool and super helpful (at least for us). We also use the Timer feature to schedule and automatically start our countdown video prior to the start of each service. Our church does not use Planning Center Online but I know that ProPresenter has great integration with that software as well.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The thing I dislike the most is that we do encounter periodic issues where our computer and the software seem to lose track of what image(s) are supposed to be going to which screen. This is usually solved by going into the Preferences settings of ProPresenter and adjusting the displays or going into our iMac and tweaking the display settings. Sometimes it requires a restart of the computer and/or projector to get everything back in sync. We operate ProPresenter and send a primary output to our main screen for the congregation, a confidence monitor on the back wall (showing the primary output screen), and then we have two Stage Display monitors on the platform as well as one Stage Display in our media booth for them to see and verify what the worship team or pastor on stage is seeing. We also send a main output screen to a monitor at our Welcome Center and in our church nursery. Our p.a. board, live video camera feed, our live-stream feed, and all of the different ProPresenter output screens are all being processed and handled through our 2017 iMac computer. So, I'm not totally surprised when it glitches out a little bit from time to time, but once we get the output signals resolved, it has always worked flawlessly for us in our services. And we've been using ProPresenter for almost 9 years now.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The biggest problem we were facing with the recent COVID-19 pandemic was how to add quality live-stream functionality so that we could broadcast our services for our church family while our church facility was closed. ProPresenter enabled us to add that functionality through their software platform. We had to add some adapters and additional OBS software but after just a couple of weeks with some trial and error we feel that our live-stream service is very good for a church our size and with only volunteer staff for all of our media team.

  ### 33. Mostly intuitive

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** K G. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 11, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter enables us to combine multiple forms of media and keep it in the desired order for later (ie setting up worship and sermon slides with bumper vids or video illustrations) so that the projectionist can simply click through without switching screens, windows, or devices. There's a quick blackout mode and a bring to front override that are helpful for keeping mistakes to a minimum. You can also schedule black screens between elements to keep button happy people from over-advancing.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Training on how to use this well can be a bear. There are many features that, while helpful for customization, also create myriad possibilities for mishaps in the setup. For example, the videos inserted are default to loop and have an easy toggle button. One of our most frequent mistakes in presentations is that the video begins playing again immediately upon completion and the presenter gets interrupted when they try to move on. There are ways around these situations, but they took a lot of lived experience to anticipate from the set-up side of things.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We've solved for the most difficult aspects of presentation which always involved switching inputs (ie from PPT to dvd or music). We love being able to preset the order of service during the week before Sunday across all types of media necessary. No more switching inputs and cramming cables behind the switch board.  ProPresenter solves a sure felt need,if a little cumbersome to learn the set-up. The most important aspect is how volunteers are able to use it during a presentation, and that part is the most intuitive.

  ### 34. The best presentation tool for any size venue

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

Ability to easily create performance enhancement tools for church and related performance needs. It us very intuitive and user friendly. Dealing with volunteers requires ease of use. This tool accomplishes that need perfectly.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

It has to be rebooted from time to time using the Reflow Editor function.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Ability to display song lyrics to large audiences in an effective and creative way. These lyrics display on a variety of displays including IMAG, LED, and internet feed.

  ### 35. ProPresenter for Church Ministry

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steve C. | Youth Pastor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter allows our church's media team to help show announcements, song lyrics, and sermon points onscreen on a Sunday morning.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

I dislike the fact that integrating slides from Apple Keynote presentations that have animation into ProPresenter is apparently a very difficult thing to do.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter has helped our church's media team in their streaming of our Sunday morning services over the internet, which has been definitely useful in the era of Covid, when many of our congregants are staying at home.

  ### 36. ProPresenter has been a fantastic tool in our multi-media presentations.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul R. | Systems/Network Administrator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 08, 2020

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I love the fact that it's customizable and can handle presentations for lyrics, PowerPoint, Video, Live Video, and web.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The limitation in file types that can be imported.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter has helped us tremendously with the ability to get our messages across, even with complex presentations that are a composite of song lyrics, scripture verses, live video and web/social media content.

  ### 37. Best Church Presentation Software

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

-Much easier to create automatically playing and looping slideshows than on PowerPoint.
-Super easy to import graphics and videos.
-Can create playlists of different presentations to quickly move from one presentation to the next.
-If you find you put a slide in your show out of order--no problem! You can easily see all the slides from your presenter view and just click on the one you want to fire.  There's no need to click the forward or backward arrows several times to find what you need.
-Built-in Bible to quickly import texts into presentations.
-iOS app available to control the presentation from iPad.
-Apply the format of one slide to all slides in a presentation.
-Super easy to export presentation from one computer to another.


**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

-I wish there were a way to apply the formatting of one slide to only some of the slides in a presentation.
-You have to be careful that you don't accidentally fire a slide on top of a previous slide.  (You have to set it up the proper way.)


**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

-Our student ministry uses this software every week.  When students arrive, they see announcement slides automatically cycle.  When I teach, our tech person can easily fire the slides needed that apply to my lesson.  Like I said earlier, if a slide is out of sequence, all the need to do is click on the proper slide. When my tech person wasn't available, it was easy for me to use the iPad to run the show.
-I create the slides for my lessons each week on ProPresenter, and it's very easy to import photos and other media.

  ### 38. Propresentor is clean, efficient, and highly collaborative.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Serena N. | Serena , Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 24, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The layout and flexibility of the program are key features. The ability to make slides with master arrangements helps me to easily create new arrangements of songs without the mess of many different files for one song. The program layout is clean and professional.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

While the program is very effecient, it would be helpful if the layout was a little less hard to figure out. Pertaining specifically to the complexity of the program it would be helpful to make the icons a little bigger and therefore a little more prominent and easier to navigate. 

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ability to create different sets or chunks of slides helps so greatly to divide where you are in the flow of the church service. 

  ### 39. Makes your services efficient

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 06, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I love that propresenter and planning center now communicate - meaning our whole service plan can be quickly transferred to propresenter.  Also, the integration of song select is also a huge bonus!  Basically our whole service runs through this program!

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

Honestly, there isn't much I dislike.  Occasionally, our settings on videos or other uploaded items won't save the first time around, but I'm not completely sure that is propresenters fault.  That might be our computer.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

It will really streamline your service!  If you are already using planning center and song select it is a no brainer!

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can't imagine doing all the processes manually that propresenter does for us!  It truly helps us run more efficiently! Our projection is all consistent in appearance.  It is easy to use!

  ### 40. Pro presenter for worship services

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The ease of storing information to be used multiple times. Slides videos music. Integration with Planning center

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

It’s definitely temperamental at time, expecting that to change with the upgrade to ProPresenter 7

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The ease of adding elements to service.

  ### 41. High Quality Presentation Program

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is a user friendly program. If you have any experience with presentation software, you can get going on ProPresenter right away. If you have no experience with this type of software, they provide a huge amount of tutorial support in video form, ready to roll.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

ProPresenter is a program that requires a lot of regular use to stay up on. If you don't use it on a regular basis, you can forget some of the nuances to the program. This makes the access to the video resources essential for the presentation designer. 

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter helps me provide easy worship solutions for my local church. They make it easy for me to show videos, sermon notes, and photo presentations to my congregation without having a difficult interface. I can bring someone in to the media center who has no experience with ProPresenter, and they can run my presentation without any trouble.

  ### 42. There is no better solution for churches.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel C. | Territory Manager, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The ease of use makes it one of the easiest systems to train people on. Even those who are not quite computer savvy can get trained in minimal time. 

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

I wish they were more lax about their license requirements. I pushed hard to have this software included in our church plant budget, which is tight. For that money it would have been nice to be able to use in at least one other place I.e. kids church

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

Take a hard look at hardware requirements. I strongly advise against running this software on a PC. Just Mac. Also take advantage of the streamlined integration with other sources like SongSelect, etc. 

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We meet out of a performing arts center in a high school. ProPresenter let’s us plug and play our entire worship experience. 

  ### 43. Great for church slides

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Megan D. | Communications Coordinator, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 03, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I like how easy it is to use for creating sermon slides

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The copy and paste feature doesn't keep formatting unless you paste without formatting. That can get old fast when you're copying lots of slides. Also, the undo feature doesn't undo every action you perform.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

Designed well to work with church presentations. 

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pro Presenter keeps all of our worship slides and sermon notes in one place.

  ### 44. The Standard

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel A. | Student Minister, Religious Institutions, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I honestly don't know how a church can operate without using ProPresenter. I love being able to seamlessly move from video to still slide to a motion graphic and back to a different video. It is the best tool I have for my programming.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The only thing I don't like about ProPresenter is that since it is such a huge program, I need to have a more expensive computer that can handle it.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ProPresenter helps make my services look clean and helps the flow of what we do each week.

  ### 45. Awesome!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Winford M. | Office Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

This program is perfect for graphics, lyrics, and videos. You can use this to roll footage directly to monitors or you can integrate this program into others such as Planning Center and Ableton for direct use. I also love that if you have limited staff members, you are able to set-up and use this product remotely. For example, if you are on a church worship team or any other band, you can trigger ProPresenter right from your Ableton setlist (two ways: remote (wifi [recommended way]) or within Ableton [not recommended unless you have enough RAM]).  

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The one thing I did not like is that the latest version had a lot of bugs with OSX. It ran super slow and would freeze up. I eventually found out how to circumvent the issues, but if I had no idea where to start, I would have been in a world of trouble. 

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

If you are a church, you have to have this program!

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using ProPresenter for our communication slides, videos, and lyrics. This program helps us communicate with our congregation through worship and announcements. 

  ### 46. Use ProPresenter at my Church

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joshua M. | Owner JSM Media, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

I like it much better than Powerpoint or Easy Worship. I like that it is geared towoards church and the features I like most are the Bible module and the Messages module. It allows me to track the wqhole bible with just a few clicks and cuts my show prep time WAYYY down.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

It has a few bugs that I frequently run in to; such as, when I only have 1 monitor hooked up and i turn the "Display" on to run the show, it will not let me get out of fullscreen slides so I have to close the program or hard reset the computer. It wont let me click the white X in the bottom left corner. Aside from that, I don't have many complaints. I have problems using Copy & Paste and frequently have to repeat it several times, but that is not much of an inconvenience. 

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

It's the best program out there, for churches at least. Do yourself a favor and get ProPresenter 6 before you waste your time with outer products.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

No business problems, just technical problems that plague many church multimedia teams. I no longer have to change programs to play different media formats or DVD's. When missionaries come to the church, I can prepare nice presentations with different elements that make it look very professional. That is important when trying to get money from doners!

  ### 47. Fantastically written program that's approachable but has great depth

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul N. | Student Pastor, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 28, 2019

  ### 48. Great all encompassing presentation software

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

You can be in the midst of presenting while also updating, adding, or changing things seamlessly.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

There's quite a learning curve and some small tweaks that can get you lost if you're not paying close attention.

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes my presentations look much more professional without having to switch between apps and show the audience my homescreen.

  ### 49. Easy to use!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 31, 2019

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

It’s an easy set-up and let’s me do most things that I want to in a presentation! Makes children’s ministry a breeze with the ability to make slides, and include music and videos with one click!

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

I wish it had more ways to customize fonts and designs. 

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having all of my verses, pictures, event promotions, music, videos, etc. for presentations all together on this application makes things super easy!

  ### 50. It Gets The Job Done

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amber W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 09, 2018

**What do you like best about ProPresenter?**

The ease of use. I can have a team member trained within 3 uses of this product on basics and then just build from there. I still handle the heavy lifting (so to speak) with custom Title slides and stage display... basically the more intricate stuff but even for me doing complex stuff I've only been working as team lead with this product since December and I would consider myself above average. The ProPresenter company has endless youtube teaching videos that are infinitely helpful, they make using this product simple. And  anytime I have had to consult support staff they are timely, helpful, effective, and followed up multiple times. I Love this product and I wouldn't change from it for anything. Every update brings improvements I didn't even realize were needed but are so helpful! The team that manages and creates this really has it going in the right direction.

**What do you dislike about ProPresenter?**

The lick of freedom to edit documents. You are very limited if you have to last minute build something (Title slide, announcement slide, etc.) You can't curve text, pivot images very well, and layering is more difficult because you have to move images back and forward individually instead of being able to pull up a list and reorder objects. These thing still wouldn't deter me from this product because it's positives far outweigh the few negative.

**Recommendations to others considering ProPresenter:**

It will take some time to get your set up just right... But it is worth the money

**What problems is ProPresenter solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Media for church services... It is a clean operating system and it doesn't give us any issues
