User Testimonials
	Donarius Church Management Software	Rock RMS
Likelihood to Recommend	Nuverb Systems Before Donarius Church Management Software, we were manually posting parishioner donations, which was time-consuming and tedious. After researching several church management software options, Donarius Church Management Software came out on top. It offers an easy-to-use platform, and the customer service is excellent—friendly, helpful, and always there when we need assistance. Verified User Read full review	Spark Development Network Rock RMS is a great CMS for churches passionate about technology and innovation. It requires advanced developing skills to operate, which can be a challenge - but there are several partners available for contracting work. Successful usage of Rock RMS opens up the door for endless possibilities - from dynamic and beautiful websites, automations that serve both internal (staff) and external (customer) needs, and unending possibilities for innovative solutions!

Pros	Nuverb Systems No answers on this topic	Spark Development Network Very customizable Content channels are powerful Web and mobile app integration Scott Meng, MA Lead Product Manager Read full review
Cons	Nuverb Systems Remove the reminder that donations are normally entered on Sunday. With e-transfer or PADs, the donations are no longer restricted to Sunday Reports could be a bit easier to create Tami Peters Secretary Read full review	Spark Development Network Group Scheduler is missing some key features Event registrations aren't the most user friendly Security permissions are a challenge as we grow Scott Meng, MA Lead Product Manager Read full review
Usability	Nuverb Systems It works well. There could be some improvement in the reports area Verified User Read full review	Spark Development Network In my opinion, you will need to have developers on your team, or partner with contractors in order to get Rock RMS set up properly and keep in maintained. I think you will also need to have Rock RMS Super Users who can troubleshoot bugs and handle basic requests from internal staff. There are also several functions that every day staff use which are very user friendly (i.e. Group Viewer, content channels, Group Scheduler, communication templates.)

Alternatives Considered	Nuverb Systems No answers on this topic	Spark Development Network In my experience, Rock RMS is much more customizable, robust, and community focused than PCO. Planning Center's sweet spot is music management and volunteer scheduling, but I think Rock RMS outshines PCO with its integration of web sites and mobile apps, automations and jobs, workflows, and its focus on community. There are tons of free and paid plugins for Rock RMS, as well as multiple Rock RMS partners to choose from. Scott Meng, MA Lead Product Manager Read full review
