  • Used this for almost a decade and very happy, really helped several churches that I was involved in. Thank you to the team, you have been a blessing to us.
  • A really good Free of charge presenting program. I have been using it for many years and I have to admit that during some years the development and bug fixes just did not happen. But it seems to be good progress on new versions lately. I have a two brand new Windows 10 computers, one running Win 10 Pro and the other one Win 10 Home edition computer and it works really well. Some features could be a bit more logical, and other are on the waiting list. The design is a bit edgy but works OK. The support works fine considering that no one is getting paid to work. I was actually amazed that it could handle more that 2 monitors when we upgraded to be able to stream our services. GOOD WORK!
  • Thank you very much for the program!
  • Getting more and more wonky as time goes on. It seemed to be just barely adequate with Windows 7 on my old PC in the beginning, but after a while it started having problems . Now with Windows 10 and a new PC it is basically unusable. I tried to print a song I needed for rehearsal tonight and it wouldn't print. Or so I thought. I went to my church to print it there. When I got home, my document tray was full because it had printed out at LEAST a half ream's worth of copies. I did not tell it to do that. It basically assumed that I needed a copy for everyone in the congregation. My advice is to get a manual typewriter and make copies for your worship team. Or if you are bent on using some kind of software, look into Proclaim or something of the like. Apparently software that depends on donations to maintain it gets faulty after a while.
  • We use this software in our church and are happy for it. Was actually purchasing EasyWorship, but for our size of church this is more useful. We are around 100 persons. No cameras. Only OpenSong on screens. Black background and an extra monitor for the band and pastor. For a long period we didn't have our own room and was setting everything up for every service. Operation with keyboard is more robust than mouse when sitting with a laptop on the knees ;-) Of course, there are functionalities which are only available in more professional programs, but the simplicity overroules the missing features. A tip: we have a dropbox with all the documents. So the presenter of the day use his own laptop, which are synchronized with the most recent songs, sets and stuff.
