FlockBase Erfahrungen

Review of FlockBase

Kommentare: I have had an excellent experience with FlockBase and it's support. When I've had to contact them, they've been very patient with me which is appreciated since I'm not the most computer literate person. I like that they are professional and friendly. (FYI: stars in review above were removed from what I originally selected. My selections were higher)

Vorteile:

It's easy to use.

Nachteile:

If I'm needing to open more than one members info and I'm working alphabetically , upon closing it one, it automatically goes back to the very top of the list and I have to keep scrolling back down to find the next one. I personally prefer it to be at where I left off.

FlockBase is a great program!!

Kommentare: I love this program! A few years ago my pastor gave me permission to get a new church membership management program. We had been using a well-known expensive program that I really wasn't happy using. So, I searched the internet and that was how I found FlockBase. It was very reasonably priced and looked like it would meet our needs. I got it and have been very pleased with it. FlockBase came with a user's manual - and it was very helpful and easy to follow when I initially purchased the program for our church. I had FlockBase set up and customized that first day and I was able to begin processing church member's offerings immediately. I've also been able to continue customizing FlockBase as needed over the years that we've had it. I've called their customer service once or twice in the past when our computers crashed and the FlockBase folks were right there to make sure that our beloved FlockBase was up and running again and to answer all of my questions. I highly recommend FlockBase for any church looking for a church membership management program that is comprehensive yet easy to use and to keep track of offerings. In fact, as I type this, I'm getting ready to print out our annual reports and FlockBase makes it a breeze!!

Unless you are a computer software engeneer or CPA, don't buy this program.

Kommentare: FlockBase is the most difficult program I have ever used. If you are a computer program engineer, you probably can use this software, good luck.
I tried to learn FlockBase for 9 months, finally gave up and bought another system, I learned how to use it in a few hours. I entered all my church contributions for 9 months in one week.
I gave FlockBase one star because no stars is not an option.
I don't recommend this to anyone.

FlockBase is great!

Kommentare: The conversion from our old software, Power Church, to FlockBase was not difficult. The web based version is great. I can work from home or church. It has cut down my processing time in less than half. Financial reports are simple to use and in an easy to read. Our church board is very complementary of the switch!

Vorteile:

This software is very user friendly. It has cut my processing time in half, easily.

Nachteile:

Compared to our old software I have not realized any negatives about FlockBase.

I just started using this system in April of 2015

Kommentare: My church has been using this software for sometime. I just started using this April of 2015 and was trained by a person in my church that was not real familiar with the program. After some time and struggle I contacted the support team. After a three hour course with Ken on the support team, I am now familiar with the program and no extra reports will have to be generated outside the reports of the software. The support team are awesome to work with. This program works real well with our church, which is a small congregation. I would recommend this software to anyone.

Great value for the price; superb support for any question; and good online detail

Kommentare: Easy to do the job I need to do. Saves time because it always work as it is designed. Very easy to use.

Vorteile:

Does church attendance, contributions and member detail easily. Easy to print reports. It is easy to use, never crashes, is very reliable. Nothing. I have no complaints about this software. I think it does what I need it to do simply and easily. I never have issues with the software.

Extremely happy with FlockBase - it was a God send for our church.

Kommentare: FlockBase is easy to use and coupled with great customer service, we are extremely happy with this program. We found out about FlockBase by doing an Internet search at a time when we had a computer crash and lost all of our contribution and member data. While trying to retrieve the data we found the customer service with the program we had at the time was less than adequate. We then decided to purchase FlockBase and have been using it for over 2 years. We use it to enter contributions; keep addresses and phone numbers on all of our congregation - members and non-members; enter weekly attendance and print attendance reports; print picture directories; keep contact lists for each of our Deaconesses and Elders; and print out yearly Contribution Statements. I cannot think of any cons - we have always found a way to use FlockBase to achieve every task. Ken in customer service is always very helpful and takes plenty of time to help us with any questions. We have been very pleased with FlockBase and in July, 2015 we started using FlockBase Accounting which interfaces perfectly with FlockBase.

Outstanding Product

Kommentare: Product was an excellent additional to our membership accountability for our church. Used product for several years. Updates provides great enhancement. Very easy to get started entering data and reports are outstanding.

Vorteile:

Database was easy to use with many features that provides a wide variety of useful reports to our management personnel.

Nachteile:

All features provided useful information and documentation.

FlockBase is exceptional !

Kommentare: I replaced our departing Financial Secretary in the fall of 2015 and took a crash course in navigating and using the FlockBase system. I found it to be very easy to understand and I was comfortable with it in no time. When I did have a problem and had occasion to call FlockBase for support (this happened 3 different times and was not due to a problem with the software), they were very pleasant and professional, addressing my problems immediately and working with me until the problems were solved to my satisfaction. They are the best.

Vorteile:

Easy to use, great record keeping system and affordable.

Nachteile:

No cons so far.

Excellent Program

Kommentare: I purchased Flock Base on the recommendation of a friend Pastor Beverly Anderson (Oxford, Ohio) three years ago. I do not regret purchasing this program. It is very easy to use. I appreciate the fact that when I contacted Customer support representative
on the other day, he returned my email and called as soon as possible. I have also recommended this program to other others

Vorteile:

easy to use

Flockbase Review*5 Stars

Kommentare: I love the FlockBase Software for program! I have used other programs working at different churches in the past and FlockBase is beyond all the others. It is a user friendly program and a great resource for any church who wants to keep membership info and contributions in one place. When I need to print out the end of the year tax contributions for our members it is super simple! FlockBase is a God-send and makes my job more efficient.

Flockbse is the most user-friendly software I have ever used.

Kommentare: I have been the only user of this software for our small church. We have subscribed to Flockbase for over five years. I like the ease of use of the features of Flockbase. I like the fact that you do not have to go to a lot of screens to get to where you need to go. The only thing I wish for is to get more variety of reports. I get the reports that are needed to provide to our members. There is nothing I can say negative about the program. If I have a question, it is answered almost as soon as I ask it. The support is great. I hope that Flockbase will be around for a long time.

Great program for the price.

Kommentare: I transferred our books from Quickbooks to FlockBase last year due to the expense of using Quickbook's payroll subscription and their horrible tech support. You can not get any better tech support than from this company. We have probably contacted tech support about 6 times and each time Ken has answered the phone with no wait time. I would recommend paying for the yearly tech support. There were some things that Quickbooks did that I wished this program had. Fortunately their latest update included one of the items.

We are a small church so I don't do everything, but am happy with the program

Kommentare: I don't like the fact that all giving by a person for the day is lumped together. I want the report to split everything and check numbers separately. I know I can go to their profile and find it but I would like to see it all at the time of the report. It used to be like that.

Outstanding product & service

Kommentare: When we first ordered the Flockbase software, we were a new church and setting up systems and processes. Also I was new to the responsibility for tracking member contributions. Flockbase is a lifesaver. It is easy to use and it does everything that is needed to maintain the financial records of our church. I have only needed to call for support once. The call was promptly answered and the information was simple to understand and apply to the problem. I highly recommend this system.

Flockbase Accounting & Membership Contributions

Kommentare: Both of these programs are extremely easy to use. You do need someone familiar with accounting to set it us, but then almost anyone can use. They give you information that all the other "big" programs use, but you don't have to be a CPA to learn it. The staff at Flockbase are very friendly and helpful. They go beyond what normal customer service department. I won't use any other programs - this can be expanded for a large church or a small church like ours.

Excellent and economical software for churches

Kommentare: It is time consuming to set up the membership initially but maintenance is a breeze to update. Software is very easy to use and the manual is very well written. I have only had to call for support once in the 5 years due to a windows upload and I have to give Ken an A+ there as well.
The only Con I have is printed report consume a lot paper. But even that can be minimized by using the data sheets. Highly recommend this software.

Found it very easy to use. Highly recommend it.

Kommentare: Looked at several different programs but none of them seemed to fit what we needed for our
small church. Was delighted to find FlockBase, it fits the bill for what we needed. It is also very
inexpensive compared to other programs I looked at. The few questions I had about it were
quickly and accurately answered. I give it 5 stars and thank them for putting out a program like this at an affordable price

Fullfills all our needs to track all types of offerings and donations of our congragation.

Kommentare: There has never been a time that my requests for assistance or information have not been fully addressed with satisfaction with just one call. Teriffic support on software questions without being made to feel a dummy . No sense of irritation with any question -just earnest help. Ken is about the easiest to help with my problems as I have to deal with any other vendor.

Easy to use software with excellent customer service!

Kommentare: I can't think of any cons at the moment. The software is easy to install and super easy to use. The manual is very helpful in setting up everything. It does help to have a little bit of accounting knowledge, but if you have questions, you can contact them and generally have an answer the same day or the next at the latest. I love the Flockbase company!

Great company, great product

Kommentare: The software is straightforward to use and has made keeping track of our parishioners and their special dates very simple. I can quickly get any information I need with just a few clicks. My secretary really appreciates FlockBase and uses it all the time. Any issues we have (which are very rare) are handled quickly and professionally.

I purchased version 2.0.4 and installed in June of 2009. Have used it exclusively since Jan 2010.

Kommentare: Pro: User friendly, tech support has very prompt response when needed, which for me, was very minimal. A few upgrades over the years addressed some suggested improvements. IMO, this is an excellent program for small churches because it is so easy to use and complete. Con: Cannot think of any at this time.

This software has proven to be understandable and very easy to navigate through.

Kommentare: I like this software because I have access to everything with just a click of the mouse. I have not had problems with it working and whenever I have a question I can call and receive an answer immediately. I would recommend this software to any church no matter what the size of the congregation.

I could not be treasurer of a small church congregation without this product.

Kommentare: I have found that I can easily make the accounting reports as well as the end of year contribution letters when called for. The support service has been great, giving assistance with computer crashes and helping me personally climb the learning curve.

Very Satisfied Customer

Kommentare: Our church chose FlockBase when our original antiquated and cumbersome membership/address system proved to be way too expensive to update. FlockBase is very user-friendly and cost-effective. We have never had to use Customer Support, so I can't give an honest rating for that aspect, but we are quite happy with how FlockBase works. (Never having to use Customer Support means we have never had a problem that I couldn't figure out!)
