What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

It is easy to use. We like being able to track all of our contact information with basically any additional fields we want to use. We also use it for our financial information. We like that it ties to Quickbooks and to Vanco. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

Reports are impossible to customize and not all the ones we want are included. Trying to track pledges is near impossible - we are a small church and I have had to create my own spreadsheets to get the information I need which is downright ridiculous. Servant Keeper gets confused with prior year givings towards pledges and doesn't always recognize a fulfilled pledge on a contribution statement (always a source of consternation from our members). Tie to Quickbooks does not include the memo field - which is very important to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servant Keeper:

I would make sure you can get all the reports that you will be using. Don't assume that they have everything you need. Keep the tech support though at least the first year. The product is easy to use, but there is a lot of gloss on essentially a still clunky product in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

In order to move to SK we have had to clean up our existing database and member files. So we have done a lot of house cleaning. However, SK has not solved any problems, but has created some new ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

It is a comprehensive program and allows us to capture a lot of information about our parishioners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

It is sometimes challenging to find the options needed to get reports to provide the data we want. When we have called support, we sometimes speak to several people before getting someone that can help. Sometimes, it was a straightforward solution, but the call took a long time because of the multiple transfers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

We handle our parishioner tracking, including attendance, giving, volunteer team selections, and similar items. These solutions allow us to provide data to team leaders and the parishioners themselves. We are also able to print membership directories, which is very helpful.

What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

I really like how easy it was to transfer from an old system to the Servant Keeper's system! As a temp in the past, I've been a part database overhauls in the past that took weeks to complete. This experience was awesome, I was able to format, map and import in less than two days and with white glove service, someone is with you every step of the way! I really like the staff, everyone is very friendly and wants to help in any way they can. I also like Servant Keeper Notify which allows you to put out emergency alerts, even notifications etc. All of this in one place since this system integrates with your regular SK records! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

The mobile app could have a bit more features, but you can access the account through you're phone's browser and access the features I'm thinking of-- looking at a member's attributes to see who is in the choir, for example. Can't do it on the app, but I can do so on the website no problem, so it's really no issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

Able to keep members, family connections, attendance, the youth ministry and all activity in one place versus we used to have two databases that we'd have to reconcile later. Also being able to send texts to members right from the app is great. In our old system, I would have to look up the number and then copy it and go and start a new text message and then paste the number there. With servant keeper you just touch the cell phone icon and it starts the text for you, same thing for an email, just click the icon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

Servant keeper offers a whole church experience, from directory to children's ministry check in. As it competes with bigger companies like Planning center it has the advantage of being cost effective as a package rather than subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

Servant keeper is not always as customizable as needed. It doesn't have the connection pieces that help with overall tracking for your organization. It also does not have a great user friendly interface for outside of administration. The screen size for check in is inconsistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servant Keeper:

Make sure you know what features you are looking for and look through the program fully first. There are some things that aren't customizable and there are a lot of features that other products offer so you may be able to cover more than one need with this product. They can offer personalized advice and expertise, but it does come with an additional Help desk cost. If you are looking for something to use long term without upgrades this is a great program. If you re using it for the check in features make sure you have the devices and supplies to really optimize the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

The one cost for the all services is wonderful. It has a check in system for CHildren's Ministry, directory for church managements, mobile apps for mobile ministry, privacy settings to make sure your notes on families for individuals stay private, and giving statements.

Servant Keeper allows you to manage church membership in one module while having a separate module for contributions. Although they do connect too. We also have our Children's Check-in also connected to this database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, I can't think of anything that I don't like about using Servant Keeper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

Servant Keeper is great for mailing lists and keeping track of donations. We aren’t a huge church and it has more features than we need. What we do use works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

It took us awhile to learn to use it. What is simple now was difficult at the beginning. It only searches by last name, and sometimes we only remember the first name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servant Keeper:

Give it a chance! It seems complicated at first, but as you customize it and get familiar with how it works, it becomes indispensable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

It works great for mailing lists. We can customize fields to keep track of what is important to us. It makes end of year tax statements a breeze. We are always discovering new capabilities. The longer we use it, the easier it gets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program makes the check-in for our Children's Ministry a breeze. We utilize this program to track all attendees, visitors and attendance reports. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

I attempted to create an updated directory report and I found it difficult to change due to programming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servant Keeper:

Very easy to implement. You will have the information you need for reporting purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

No business problems. We take the security of our children very seriously and with this program and the labels that are generated and given to each child, specific people with a receipt can only pick up their child. The labels also list any allergies or specific medical information given by the parents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Servant Keeper?

We currently use the cloud-based database, which allows us to work from anywhere. We really like the ability to make notes on families or individuals, and use this feature frequently to write a note for specific contacts - including notes that will only be seen by the person making the note or their designated people - this is great for counseling, important events, and the like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Servant Keeper?

Some aspects of the software are quite 'clunky' to navigate and at times the software seems to lose details - an essential feature of the product! For example, we may enter our attendance, but then not find a family in the 'attended' column. In the past, we have had a week worth of giving simply disappear - causing issues with our end-of-year giving statements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Servant Keeper:

This is more difficult; but be prepared. Purchase the tech support as this company charges extra for that service. Always get the cloud solution! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Servant Keeper solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use SK to help us track our membership from first-time guests to long-time members. We track attendance, important events (like a serious accident or death of a loved one), giving, and talents in our software. This saves us time and effort and allows us to have a comprehensive plan for keeping up with our congregation. Overall, there are many great features and when we recently began looking at switching to another provider, we felt that sticking with Servant Keeper was the best option.
