What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

Vanco has been increasingly adaptive to the needs of church administration and stewardship. We have been using Vanco in one form or another for the past 7 years, and love all of the updates that they continue to do to how they serve their clients' needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

If I had to nitpick, it would be the integration issues with their older software services and their new ones. For example, I have a Vanco desktop admin login, and a Vanco Mobile admin login, I feel this should be able to be one-in-the-same, since I am the admin for both, but again, it is only nit-picking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

With the shift to online worship and people not attending in-person church as frequently pre-pandemic era, there is a need for a consistent form of tithing for those people, Vanco provides this with multiple venues, ie. online, texting, mobile app, and more, they have even added the ability to hold Zoom meetings and schedule them directly through their mobile app, which has closed a gap for members who want to attend small bible studies but feel safer not coming to church right now.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

The phone app is easy to use and, most importantly, works reliably. Our church has not made much use of the main website tools, mainly because there are modest concerns that giving into the various online buckets may or may not mesh well with the existing/legacy financial software used at our church. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

Not sure that there's anything we don't like. Just wish the tools available were more commonly used by our members. While our e-giving at our church is good (in terms of percentages) the text and mobile giving still seems pretty small. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

Providing options for giving seems like a good idea. I'm told that having mobile giving options leans positive, particularly for younger people and their families. Clearly one size fits all is for a time long ago. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

I'd say that Vanco is pretty easy to use and create entries for our website. Lots of options to create a helpful posts for payments/donations. Easy to activate and easy to remove from website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

In the past we have had excellent customer service. If there was a new employee, Vanco was willing to help them learn the system. My latest experiences haven't been as good. They redirect you, but if you don't know how....you are on your own. That is NOT how it was in the past, so I'm a little disappointed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a platform to accept credit cards. This has been a good option for credit card transactions and continuous donations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

We have always gotten great customer service! Since updating their dashboard a couple of years ago, it's easy to update online giving on our end. And it is easy for people to give/change their giving options. The overall look is visually pleasing as well. They also have the best credit card processing rates that we have seen! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

I don't have a ton of experience with other companies, so I don't have much negative feedback. One issue we have run into is when someone gives but didn't make an account, they have no way of changing anything on their end. That would probably happen anywhere though. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

They make it easy for our congregation to give. I know Vanco is quick to respond if we run into any issues. I don't have to question if someone's giving is correct or not, so it makes everything easier at the end of the year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

Creating an account is simple for the user, with the ability to set up one-time or recurring donations. From a management standpoint, Vanco is easy to set up funds, activate and deactivate as needed, and set up web pages. Reports are easy to use. Reconciling at month's end takes some time but is easy to do. Vanco interfaces with PowerChurch which reduces business office time. Vanco also provides marketing tools to help increase donations, which is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

It's not so much a dislike as much as informing users what is required to balance each month. Reconciling at month's end requires three reports. It's a bit time-consuming but is not hard to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

Can't think of any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

Customer support. I am not tech savvy but they walk me through the process so that I can use the products the way they work best for me. I've always been satisfied with there support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

I haven't figured out how to send emails to thank all my donors through the system.I t would be nice if that were possible. I also get 2-3 notifications about each donation that is not required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to take payments for two separate accounts is a great help. The interface could be more friendly and i wish i could pull a mailing list instead of looking up donors one at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Vanco Faith?

Vanco makes the giving process easy and concise. Their platforms and tools provided make everything that comes with organizing online giving beyond manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vanco Faith?

There really isn't anything to dislike concerning Vanco. They go above and beyond to ensure their level of security for your patrons and your business exceeds expectations. Their customer service is patient and understanding. They never leave an issue unresolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of our issues was being able to maintain and keep organized donor giving. They have apps and processes that help couple all areas of giving and make sure they are accurate in their reporting. You're also not limited to just one stream of giving. From Text to Give to having an online giving function, it gives the patron the opportunity to select which option best fits their needs.

I can't identify anything. Is there something more specific I need to say? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vanco Faith solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows members to have another option besides giving in person or enrolling in a BillPay bank program. It also allows both the donor and our office to make any requested adjustments to their giving amount or frequency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
