Overall Satisfaction with SimpleTexting
We are currently using SimpleTexting as a means to communicate updates and reminders to a portion of our church congregation members (the English-speaking department within a Korean immigrant church). We currently don't have the capacity to sustain an email newsletter system, so mass-texting has been a workaround solution in sending pertinent updates.
Pros
- Simple, user-friendly interface.
- Clear and straightforward billing/subscription model.
Cons
- Web/embed integrations can be more fleshed out in terms of customization; I often feel limited in the way I can use the integrations and add-ons which deters me from using them at all.
- As a non-profit, our main reason for using SimpleTexting was simply to send out updates/reminders; so we have no particular positive/negative impact on ROI.
TextMarks offered all the features/functions we were looking for, especially their "Text for Info" function. We were looking for a solution that would simply allow people to receive information without actually subscribing into a list. However, the cost was too high.
Flocknotes is a service specifically designed for churches and therefore much more affordable, but they were offering an all-in-one solution in terms of having an entire database of members which wouldn't be useful for us as we already have a database established.
SimpleTexting was the middle ground for us in terms of function and price.
