The app is also great. We're able to download the app and use it anywhere. > > **Cons**: It's a newer software so they're still working out kinks. We would prefer that there's more features on their contact form. ----- ### "Best Guest Follow Up Process" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 December 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Text In Church has been amazing for me and my church. It simplifies communication, eliminates emails that go straight to junk mail, first time guest follow-up systems made simple, and the list goes on. THIS MORNING someone said, "I really appreciated how I got a personal text from Epiphany this morning telling me they were praying for me today". It is the small things. I have been in ministry for 10 years and this is one of the best things that I have had in terms of communication with people on a weekly basis. Before, when I asked people if they got the information via Email, FB message, IG, Twitter, ect, about 30% of the people would say that they got it, but didn't look at it. Now, over 90% of the people I ask not only got it but read it and appreciated it. It has even been a game changer for our teams. If you want to be apart of the setup team, text SET UP...If you want to be apart of the hospitality team text HOSPITALITY...I honestly don't know what I was even doing before in communication. I will never go back. > > **Cons**: The app through iOS could be better. As I am traveling, it would be great to set up a quick text from my phone. The capability is there, but it glitches out sometimes. Great idea, just needs some improvement. > > Text in church has simplified getting information to different groups of people in my church. I can set differnt groups up and communicate with a whole group with a simple click of a button. I dont have to think about 'who is in this group again?' I dont have to worry about communicating with the wrong group. Also, being that its text, I know that everyone is getting the message. Unlike email, you have to actually open up an email to see it. ----- ### "Good for small company" — 3.0/5 > **Mylinda** | *04 October 2019* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to setup and get started. Straightforward instructions. Help and suppport are quick and easy to talk with when needed. The groups are easy to setup and use. > > **Cons**: We found it was limited for the different types of emails we wanted to send as far as choices of fonts, styling of emails, etc. The "workflow" steps recommended for sending repeat emails and texts have not been good for our use. ----- ### "A wonderful tool" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *15 May 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Hands down what I like most about Text In Church is the automation\! > > **Cons**: I didn’t care much for the limited number of texts you’re allowed to send per subscription tier. I’ve used another texting service that allows unlimited messages to be sent for one flat rate. This way, I feel like I can freely communicate and hold conversations without feeling like I’m using up valuable text credits. > > For a small church staff, guest follow up can sometimes fall by the wayside among all the other things that need to happen on a weekly basis. At least at my church that was the case. Text In Church lets you set up and customize a comprehensive guitar followup protocol that’s near foolproof\! It’s a wonderful communication tool\! ----- ### "When we are ready for this step for our church text-In)church will be our choice" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *26 July 2018* > > **Pros**: Ease of use, features, workflows, support, etc. This company and software has it all. If you want to make follow up easy and get away from all the confusion, look into text-in-church. This isn't a replacement for real people connections but will be the main tool in your toolbelt to making those first connections. > > **Cons**: We are not jumping on board yet as we are not at a church size that can't handle our connection cards and our system without a text service. Our teams are more than capable to connect and help with next steps. As we grow and the system gets more complicated, we will be jumping on board. ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/105113/text-in-church?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/105113/text-in-church) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
