Likelihood to Recommend	If you are a music/worship leader in a local church, Planning Center will be your absolute best friend. It changed the way I interact with my team, our songs, and our order of worship each week. If you are involved in a small church with a limited budget or you have very few volunteers, Planning Center may offer more than you need Incentivized David Calvert Pastor for Creative Arts Read full review	[Tithe.ly is well suited as an] easy to learn online giving platform where your online giving and people management system can be connected.

Cons	Groups' Communication Tool Giving app scaled access for volunteers Church-wide communication tool Song-reporting integration with CCLI Incentivized David Calvert Pastor for Creative Arts Read full review	The app could incorrectly identify your location and you could give to the wrong church. This was a problem in 2017-2018 but I haven't heard this issue recently. Incentivized Josh Edney Executive Pastor Read full review
Support Rating	I've not needed to use Planning Center support. In the few instances that I would have thought would "require support," tips and notices popped up on screen letting me know what was happening. There are very VERY few issues that I've found with Planning Center. The interface has been intuitive and powerful, so I've not needed to use their support service.

Alternatives Considered	At one point, I was presented with both Asana and Trello as helpful tools to facilitate teamwork and collaboration amongst a large group of people. However, when it comes to putting on productions/services/events, Planning Center just seemed to have everything we need. I have never really once given thought to moving on from Planning Center. I'm sure Asana and Trello have much to offer, and I did briefly consider the, but Planning Center (for what we needed) was a grand-slam, home run.
