Clearstream is so simple to use! It has increased our revenue as an organization becuase we are able to stay in better communication with our community!
Not sure where to start but I came across Clearstream after having issues with other platforms. Out church had tried so many, other companies, that seemed to be what we were looking for, but fell short. Whether Text in Church, Remind, Flocknote, WhatsApp, etc., we tried several. What we were looking for was, affordability, customer service, ease of use, scalability, and if it would intergrate with other programs we use. We initially talked about only using it to communicate important things happening within the church, but I soon realized we are doing a disservice to ourselves by not using all of the available features. So we began to use Clearstream very frequently.
Well, I'm happy and grateful to say Clearstream has been phenomenal! before signing up, I was able to hop on a live stream, and see all of the features being offered. after the live stream, I was able to ask any questions that I had regarding the system. Since day one customer service has been extremely helpful and answering any questions. I love the fact that it was so easy to implement it into our current workflows without much change to the backend of our system.
A few things I love about Clearstream;
1. Easy to use. Can train anyone how to use in minutes.
2. Creating automated workflows.
3. Intergration with planning center.
4. Ability to create polls and see live results.
5. Can incorporate polls within ProPresenter.
6. Creating unlimited keywords with local number.
7. Customer Service (Well above the others we've used in the past).
8. Pricing.
9. Sending emails through the text service.
10. Having an app.
There is probably so much more I can say but I'll wrap this up by saying, Clearstream has been much more than just a texting service. It has allowed me as a pastor to be more creative in my messages, communicate better as a church, drive engagement, etc. It really has become a powerful tool. If you are wondering about Clearstream, I can assure you they have been our favorite service!
