It was exactly what we were looking for
It was exactly what we were looking for. What stood out to me was Aplos’s ease of use for fund accounting, especially with their tags, and the fact we could integrate into Church Community Builder seamlessly without having to do twenty batches a week.

This software is simple and easy to use for a church that is small and uses volunteers to do some of the work.

Cons
They offer webinars but some of our volunteers are hesitant to take advantage of the training that is available.
