Logos II Reviews

I love it - couldn't operate a day without Logos.

We used Logos for years -- it worked well
i used it each week to record donations

I highly recommend this software, it has been much better and easier than a previous software we used. The staff at Logos is like calling a friend, we never feel like a 'number' with them. I'm very happy to be a member of the Logos family.

While the concept was great, the execution was poor. It was especially great that fund management was integrated in the software, where most softwares do not bundle fund management with member records.

I'm not sure if you were looking for a review of Logos or not. I'm not familiar with Capterra. I use Logos only.

Our church has been using LOGOS software for over 14 years. We were recommended to LOGOS by another church at the time and after researching several church management / church accounting software LOGOS came out on top for us from a technical and practical point of view.
1) They understand the local church and are totally dedicated to helping the church in this arena.
2) It is designed for a small church or large church and has everything you will need.
3) The customer service has always been there for us as a church, this where that understanding of the local church environment is important because every church is different.
4) We like the ability to customize the software at different levels to fit our church environment.
5) Very good ROI value, the software will grow with organization and for the most part will not need to look for another.
This is just to name a few. If you're a church just starting, small, or large then you should consider giving LOGOS a serious try.

Pros: ...uhh

Cons: Incredibly slow. Finding the perfect set of criteria to create a report is extraordinarily difficult. The slightest tweak (that seems logical) will give you 0 results, or literally every person in your database. When you have problems with it, it takes days for the support staff to return your phone call and when they eventually do, they tell you to "watch all of the video tutorials" before calling back. Their video tutorials are 10-20 minutes and are virtually guaranteed to make you fall asleep. Inputting attendance takes all day because you are going to run into problems along the way. There is no easy way to add people to the system in the middle of the job. If you try to certify an address that the program doesn't like, it freezes and you have to close it out for half an hour before you can go back to it.

Our church switched to another database, what a disaster, not user friendly and was very complicated to understand. We went back to LOGOS! LOGOS is an excellent database that will grow with your church and serve it well.

Our church has used this product since 2003 and have had very little issue with the programs. We utilize 3 components: Scheduler, Logos II, and Accounting. The programs can interconnect however, we do not use this feature. Can create user friendly reports based on what your church needs are. Again very user friendly.

This software is so archaic and difficult to use that I feel like I've stepped back to 1998. Reports are impossible, support is slow and questionable, and cost is unbelievable for what appears to be a poached version of another piece of old software. Multiple problems just logging in to the system, days spent waiting for returned calls when we have problems (fairly often), and management refuses to return calls to hear complaints. We have used it for 7 months and I regret every moment spent trying to figure it out. I'm currently searching for a replacement and seriously considering building my own spreadsheet to get by in the meantime. Don't do it.

It definitely keeps the church more organized.

If LOGOS desires our business I suggest they improve their telephone service and response to the customer.

We attempted to use this software for 6 months and ultimately gave up. It was not at all intuitive, and some of the most basic functions required hours of training just to figure out how to do simple tasks. I attended an hour-long training course to learn how to make labels, and ultimately determined it would be easier to export the information to Excel and deal with it that way. Even our most tech-savvy people couldn't figure it out. We are now using Roll Call and are so much happier!

Our church has used the Logos II software/product for seven years. The software and programs have exceeded our expectations and have kept up with the demand of our growing church. I recommend this product to churches who are looking to maintain accurate records (either membership or financial) while continuing to stay ahead of the technology curve.

We have used LOGOS Accounting for many years. Has all the necessities only wish it was more user-friendly.
