What is Blackbaud Church Management?

Blackbaud Church Management software is designed to connect all staff and volunteers with one holistic view, automated processes and easy-to-use software to manage all your programs , and provide data to better understand congregants and the various ways they interact with your house of worship with a single source of data, and finally keep church membership engaged with multi-channel communications.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

From experience, implementation was horrendous. Blackbaud imported all database information even after we went through a detailed process to eliminate unneeded data. Customer support was nonexistent. The system was not geared toward churches. They have since discontinued to support church management and even suggested that we choose another system. We have sine moved to Touchpoint.

Pros

Cons

  • Not geared toward churches

  • In my opinion, horrible and incompetent support

Return on Investment
