Parish Data System Reviews

Parish Data is a great tool for keeping track of parishioner records and contributions

There is nothing I dislike about Parish Data

We are able to keep all important records on our parishioners in one location

-Ability of standardized instructions for new users

-Linked data between functions

-Clean GUI

-I had some issues recovering my account information when I first tried to create a new user account based on how permissions are managed.

-Keep track of parishioners and relevant data.

Parishioner data is easily accessible and organized. Information can be cross referenced by multiple users. Access to data is easy to control. Information is easily updated by staff.

Information can be bulky. Parishioners are not able to control/update their own data. Updating information can be time consuming. Aspects of the software are sold piecemeal.

To fully utilize this system, we recommend using the cloud based version. The transition from server storage to cloud based has been trying.

We are able to share data digitally throughout the office. If we were to move to a cloud-based format, we would have the ability to allow parishioners to update their own data, which would be a tremendous benefit (we are in the process of making this change). Overall, the database is good, but we are very interested in making the switch to the cloud based format in order to fully utilize the advantages offered by this software.

I enjoyed having a software that kept data on all of the parish for easy access.

It was outdated, difficult to use, and hard to teach others how to use. The Help system was hard to utilize.

Check out Church Community Builder. Remember that if you utilize volunteers in data management that the product needs to be easy to pickup and use.

Finances were managed, parish data was kept, some communications were used, and Group information was stored, managed, and displayed to members.
