"Worst Support - eliminates all other value"

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

The set up and layout is pretty intuitive. And the different modes and restrictions you can place on access are helpful. All the modes included for no extra cost, except texts over a certain amount, is great to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

Breeze use to be first in class for value and speed. Following a take over, presumably to have synergies leading to lower overhead, thy instituted a significant price hike (I thought cloud computing keeps getting cheaper?) Combine that with what seems to be more sluggishness, it is losing it's value quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

Use all the options, because it is all included for one price Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

The folks at Breeze are truly exceptional when it comes to customer service. The help pages are great, but sometimes you just run into something that you can't figure out and they are always there to walk you through the steps. They are always interested in learning from the customer about needs and uses as they are patient with teaching and explaining how the system work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

On some computers the contrast between their background and the light blue field they use for some of their pages can be a little had to see. This has been resolved with some of the recent upgrades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

Give it a try. It is a great value and the support is excellent! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are tracking attendance and we are noticing when folks are missing worship, this has been invaluable. We have also moved to online giving and that has been especially helpful in these Covid-19 times! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

What I like best about Breeze is how user-friendly and intuitive of a system it is. Our previous church management system literally required classes to understand how to use it. Even after classes, our staff still barely understood how to get the info we needed from our old system. Breeze is not like that. Breeze is easy to use and figure out on your own and they do have plenty of learning aids online to teach yourself anything that may not be clear. And if you cannot figure something out yourself, Breeze's customer service is readily available and they will walk with you through whatever issue you are having. They have some of the friendliest customer service people I have dealt with in a company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

The one thing I dislike about Breeze that I can think of is it has a function where anyone with permissions can send emails to established groups in the system. However, it is an all or nothing approach. If you add someone to a Sunday School list (tag) in Breeze and wanted everyone in the class to have the ability to email the class, too, you cannot do this just for those folks in that particular class. If you cannot just give access to that class to email themselves, but you would have to give those people access to see and be able to email all Sunday School classes or any other group for which you have created a tag. So, we basically turned off the ability of an of our congregation to use tags at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

My only recommendation is to seriously consider it. It is a great tool for small and medium sized churches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Breeze has been wonderful in terms of solving all sorts of little problems. As a staff we are quickly able to look up folks, sort data and run reports in very particular ways with just the click of a few buttons (our old system was INCREDIBLY difficult to run even the most basic reports). Also, Breeze has a great phone app that our congregants really like. And Breeze also has a "give online" option, which is something we never had before. My favorite part of Breeze as a staff admin is how quickly and easily you can run targeted reports (e.g. Pull up a list of all congregants between Age 60-70 that have been at the church more than 10 years).

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

Breeze is very easy to use, a great price value, and always working to become even better. They respond quickly and knowledgeably when I have a question, and they don't rest until we get the answer we need. They also make it easy to suggest features, and they are always working on new features. They really listen to the churches they serve and view their business as a ministry to the churches. Excellent product with excellent people behind it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

While there are some things Breeze doesn't do (yet), what they do is clean and done well. We've used this system for 3 years now (we transferred over from a much more expensive and cumbersome database management system). The former system did more, but was extremely complicated and difficult to get support from. So while I'm waiting for some new capabilities to be rolled out by Breeze, I'm very satisfied with what it does already. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

Check them out. You can do a practice demo online with Breeze, and their training videos are great. And if you have questions, be encouraged that you will be every bit as important to them AFTER you sign up as you were BEFORE you signed up. They won't drop you after they make the sale - they are committed to seeing their customers thrive while using Breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

With Breeze, we have been able to keep track of events in multiple venues, handle kids' ministry check-ins, track contributions, and report on giving trends. They also help us keep our IT expenses manageable - Breeze is much less expensive than other providers for processing online gifts. The monthly fee is very reasonable. We have also been able to use Breeze "Forms" to handle conference registrations and payments, capturing necessary information when people sign up. The automated processes are extremely helpful as well, helping us make sure new people are welcomed and informed. We use almost every function they have rolled out, and it's been a great blessing for our church.

My job as Finance Administrator is much more streamlined using Breeze to track non-profit contributions and provide reports on giving trends. It enables us to better communicate with our people, and it also enables our people to communicate with one another. Our serving team leaders use Breeze to schedule volunteers and communicate with their teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

Breeze was exactly what we were looking for. A simple, affordable data management system to hold a small database. In addition to the database management, Breeze also allowed us to create an online giving presence--this was an added benefit of the software. The people at Breeze are responsive and helpful. They provide blogs with useful information for ministry organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

It is mainly geared for churches, however we are using it to manage our small foundation. The flow from screen to screen is not always easy to maneuver. I find myself closing and opening tabs. Overall it is a user friendly, straightforward software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

This is a great software to manage a small donor database. Breeze also provides the opportunity to create an online giving portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We took a completely paper based system and uploaded to their software in just a few hours. We now are able to run reports, print year end receipts and more. We also saw the added benefit of online giving. It was very easy to set up and provided us a way to feature multiple funds choices to our donors--very nice! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

It is easy to use and has the flexibility to adapt to the way we do ministry. We utilize Breeze for check-in for events, especially for weekly children's programs. Group leaders use the "tag" system to manage and communicate with their teams. As the office manager, I utilize all aspects of Breeze from volunteer scheduling, tracking contributions, and managing directory information for our attenders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

Over the past year, Breeze speed seems to be sluggish at times. But I still love it and know they are making improvements all the time and growing pains can be expected. I don't really "dislike" anything but if I could make improvements, I would improve the reports function. I like the fact that I can pull the data I need and export it to excel for further manipulation/analysis. This makes it very versatile but on the down side, I need to format/delete extra fields that I can't filter out each time I pull a report. I would also like to see better integration between Subsplash Giving and Breeze. Currently, the lag time between a donation via Subsplash and transfer into Breeze creates confusion and requires a manual work around. This could be prevented by using the date of transfer into Breeze rather than the initial date of the donation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

I think of Breeze as the Toyota Corolla of ChMS. It is flexible, reliable, cost effective, and won't let you down. Our church of 450 on a Sunday could not be happier with Breeze and we don't have any reason to look elsewhere. When looking for a new ChMS 3+ years ago, I found some nice flash sports cars and 18 wheelers but for us, we just didn't need to spend the money on a ChMS that had lots of options that we wouldn't be using. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

We switched to Breeze 3 years ago from a more complicated ChMS. Breeze is very intuitive and does not overwhelm users. Therefore, all of our ministry team and small group leaders use it regularly, not just our staff. This has been a huge asset in improving access to information and communication tools. Our previous ChMS was not web-based and therefore could not be easily utilized from a mobile device. This is a huge benefit now being able to access Breeze wherever I am. Additionally, Breeze is substantially less expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

What I like best about breeze is how simple it is to use. As our office is comprised of different skill set when it comes to technology, one thing that is consistent is the ability of them to use Breeze and being able to limit what they have access to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

I think Breeze has the ability to add so many features that would help make some of the already amazing features even better! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Breeze ChMS:

I would recommend switching to Breeze. We had a similar program that has become old and obsolete. It is difficult to generate reports and easily find people. I love breeze because I know as they further develop the program, cost will not go up and it will always have a focus of ease of use. I have recommended this to a couple of other churches in my area and they have switched and found it a lot better to use as well!!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Originally we used excel sheets to keep track of registrations, attendance etc. But now it is super easy and quick to see what events an individual has attended, what forms they've completed. I also like the ability to email a certain group of people based on a profile field. For example, I wanted to invite graduating seniors to our graduation mass. I was able to pull up all who are in 12th grade and email them, inviting them to attend!

Another benefit is during this pandemic, it has served as an amazing tool to know who has attended what event so that, if there was a positive case, we can immediately notify those who were also there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Breeze ChMS?

Breeze is simple and I mean that in the best way possible. They have adequately named their CMS because it is a breeze to use. I've used a handful of Church Management Systems and Breeze is by far the most intuitive. I also love that it is clean and good looking. From the online giving page (that donors and constituents see) to all the back end pieces, the design and look is easy on the eyes. I also can't fail to mention the price. Breeze does an excellent job at a remarkable price. Even their online tutorials and videos are well done, appealing, and short. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Breeze ChMS?

I have not found anything I dislike. I have been concerned that as Breeze grew and added more options that the software would lose its ease of use but so far that has not been the case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Breeze ChMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Breeze has been a great tool to manage our contributions and I love that they work with other bookkeeping software. We use Breeze to manage groups and communications within groups. It is so simple to email and text groups through Breeze and it also allows you to easily navigate to past communications you sent out. I love that the leaders I train to use Breeze catch on quickly because of how intuitive things are. I also appreciate that their online giving really invokes a sense of security for donors and is easy to adjust settings for. It also allows for us to easily create the appearance we want for our online page. As we grow, I know we are going to make even more use of Breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tithe.ly Church Management Suite?

Tithe.ly provides another way to allow members to support their churches financially and works very well for that purpose. Our church researched several different vendors and settled on Tithe.ly as the easiest to use, and the least expensive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tithe.ly Church Management Suite?

Like any online program, it can be a challenge for some folks not used to transacting business online or on their phone. I don't know how they could improve the product since they offer a smartphone app, a website, and the ability to preset giving on a recurring basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Tithe.ly Church Management Suite:

Research several before choosing Tithe.ly or any of them. Make sure what is offered is suitable for your congregation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Tithe.ly Church Management Suite solving and how is that benefiting you?

By using Tithe.ly, we have given our members another outlet for giving. Instituting online giving was very beneficial during the initial pandemic lockdowns when we suspended services but has continued since as a convenience item for our folks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
