    5 out of 5 stars Posted 2025-12-20

    Pros: The ease and simplicity of this product is amazing. You follow the prompts and if data entered is not correct, delete it and re-enter. Data entered can be saved on a flash drive.

    Cons: I often use the program at night and if I need tech support I must wait until next day business for assistance. That is not really a ‘con’ but it is closest to a ‘con’.

    Overall: Our church has a bookkeeper who manually maintains the finances. I use ChurchBooks3 and we are always in balance. It is a redundant system but it works for our needs.
