CallingPost

Ambassadors for Christ

Comments: While I was able to access my list, the experience was great. I don't know what to do now. I am trying to find a site comparable to Calling Post.

Pros:

I like the fact that I was able to contact the church members with one call and everyone received the same message. It is great for making announcements to those who are unable to attend services at the church and it is a great way to keep in touch with our members.

Cons:

I was disappointed when I saw the format had changed and the membership list wasn't available. I had painstakingly entered every phone number, email address and other information. When I tried to send out a post after you changed the site, I couldn't access my list!

The best communication platform I have used!

Comments: I have used Calling Post for the past five years and I’ve been highly satisfied with the ease-of-use and dependability. Out of several thousand calls, we have had only one instance where the message did not come across clearly. When I called the representatives at Calling Post, they immediately refunded those calls and apologized for the problem. I was very impressed. I have recommended Calling Post to all of my pastoral colleagues since I begin using it back in 2015.

Pros:

Calling Post is very user friendly and very reliable. From setting up our account to sending out our weekly messages to our Church family, Calling Post is the only Calling platform I will ever use!

Cons:

I haven’t found anything yet I do not like about Calling Post.

Some Critiques

Comments: Generally positive, with the exception noted above.

Pros:

The program is generally fairly simple to use and adequate for the reasonably simple reminders we send out to our congregation in the form of texts, emails and calls. Customer service is also quite good.

Cons:

I find sending out my weekly blog is often problematic in terms of a balky format that often is not user friendly when corrections need to be made . Also, copying pre-typed text from Word is often problematic in terms of retaining the original formatting.

Good Communication Tool

Comments: Having the system go down and not be available when you need it

Pros:

Being able to send out messages to different groups and be able to schedule them ahead of time

Cons:

No being able to upload documents to send through text messages and having it time out alot when trying to schedule messages

Calling Post has been an ESSENTIAL tool during this health crisis.

Pros:

I have used Calling Post for over 15 years. It has always been a tool that I used to communicate with the senior residents who live in our community. However, during the COVID-19 crisis it has been an invaluable asset in maintaining a line of communication on an almost daily basis with my folks. The unlimited plan is a marvelous value and I certainly get my money's worth! It is very easy to use, they can hear MY voice not a recorded voice, and I can rest assured that they all receive the message.

Cons:

I am very pleased with all aspects of the service.
