User Testimonials
	Blackbaud Church Management	DonorDirect
Likelihood to Recommend	Blackbaud I believe this system was overpriced and under-supported. From experience, it is very clunky and lacking features that churches would find helpful. There are no scenarios for which Blackbaud Church Management is well suited. It is not appropriate for churches. I would avoid it at all costs. They were also not willing to assist in moving to another system. Incentivized Kenton Sanders Director of Operations Read full review	Ministry Brands No answers on this topic
Cons	Blackbaud Not geared toward churches Missing much functionality In my opinion, horrible and incompetent support No ongoing support for their system Incentivized Kenton Sanders Director of Operations Read full review	Ministry Brands No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Blackbaud In my opinion, Blackbaud was by far the worst experience we have had with any church management system. We initially moved away from Shelby Systems to FellowshipOne. In an attempt to consolidate church management and accounting into a single system, we moved from FellowshipOne to Blackbaud Church Management to accomplish this. Both FellowshipOne and Shelby wer far superior systems. Incentivized Kenton Sanders Director of Operations Read full review	Ministry Brands No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Blackbaud A negative ROI Difficulty in moving data to another system Caused a lot of extra work to fix all the errors that came in implementation Incentivized Kenton Sanders Director of Operations Read full review	Ministry Brands No answers on this topic
