Avis clients sur EasyWorship

We like the ease of use most. When we first switched over, we primarily had to because video backgrounds were glitchy on our old presentation software. EasyWorship brought us into the future by making motion backgrounds work flawlessly. Over time, we've also like how EasyWorship has become more like other professional software in handling things like multiple projectors, displays and easy switching between different media. That in itself should make anyone want to get EW over the others.

The subscription model makes it un-favourable. But at least the developers have taken into account the size of churches/congregations to offer variable pricing. Churches oversees don't see a lot of money coming in, so having multiple subscriptions in USD in failing economies, makes it more expensive by the year.

The ease of installation and use. Active support community. Expandabilty

Haven't ran into any issues. EasyWorship has continued to grow with us.

1. It was the most feature-rich product for the price. Now, the product has too many bugs to consider it "reasonably priced".
2. I liked the "check for changes" options as it allows multiple people to contribute to a worship schedule. However, you have to manually start it. It used to be automatic.
3. I like how you can import PowerPoint presentations with all the basic PowerPoint controls.
4. I like how well you can mix audio, PowerPoint and EW7 created media in the same schedule.

1. Support is average. They believe the only way to solve a problem is to login to your computer and take control, not acceptable.
2. You can't export the text of anything you create in EW7. So, if you create 200+ songs in EW7 you can't port them to somewhere else. All you can do is export a list of songs or open each song and copy all the text.
3. Even after multiple releases of EW6 and EW7, PowerPoint presentations will sometimes stop working. The PP slides turn black and instead of seeing 12 separate slides, you only see 1 black slide.
4. If you resize the Application screen, EW7 will not remember how you sized the panels the next time you start it up.
5. You can run an audio travt in the background while you display a video or image file.

easy worship was and is still easy to use till date

i wish i could use it as a one-stop for recording and mixing all at once

The usability of the software - for both novice and advanced user - is great. It's easy to get up to speed on and then use in a normal fashion, but not so simple that more advanced users are limited in the ability to implement more complicated features. Overall, I honestly don't know that there has been something that we've needed to try and accomplish using the software that we've been unable to figure out how to do. It works well, is quite versatile, plus works VERY reliably.

Sometimes the search for songs within the program is a bit disappointing, but other than that, no complaints whatsoever.

I like that we can use Easy Worship to plan out our worship services. We can let announcement slides roll before service starts. We can also easily put in any videos we might be showing. We can set up the lyrics to the songs we'll be using, and easily change things if we need to. Even if you spot a typo, you can change that in real time without having to close down the projection, change it, and get it back up. There is also a "memory bank" of thousands of songs to choose from, so we don't have to type in every word to every song. And since it works on our local network, we can put things on it from the office, and it's there for us in the sound booth.

We ran into really big issues when we had a computer go down. We had to set everything up on the new computer. Everything should have popped back up when we logged back in, but we lost all of our huge memory bank of songs (all the songs we've done for years and years). We've basically had to enter each song in one by one, and with the latest update to EasyWorship, it's harder than ever to do. And then, when we do enter the songs in and save them to our database, they lose their formatting when we try to open them again. Our secretary has spent HOURS searching for tech support/help/advice, and there's just nothing. It's been incredibly frustrating to deal with.

Our church has used EasyWorship for over 10 years and we love it! It is easy to use and easy to train new volunteers to use. There's no fluff or unnecessary functions cluttering up the interface.

I wish additional Bible translations were included rather than costing extra, but this is a minor quibble.

We use song lyrics, scriptures, presentations, & media. It is very easy to use, edit and add to the database. Many of our users have limited skills and it is simple for them to use during church services

Easyworship does everything we need at this time, however we did have to upgrade to version 7 as many of the features were taken away from version 6. Now we have to pay on a monthy basis having already purchased version 6 some time ago. Sometimes have issues importing youtube videos

User-friendly product that anyone who are not tech savvy can easily use with little help.

Totally my fault I have yet to explore all the features that EasyWorship had to offer.

It is very EASY to use! It has many features but that doesn't complicate the use of the software. I appreciate how easy it is to set up and maintain. It has many features I use and the ease of use has kept me with EasyWorship instead of moving to another platform!

I really can't think of anything I don't like about it, it works great.

Using this software weekly for our worship presentation, the ease of use has been remarkably smooth. So smooth - that when suggesting training others should I not be available on any particular Sunday, don't think it necessary to be trained - they think they can just jump on and run it - great concept, but not practical - it's SOFTWARE! :-/

BTW - we are a church plant with 50-200 attendees. We have no employees, but I had no options that were applicable when completing this form. We actually have no employees - not even me. :-)

It would be incredibly beneficial if we were able to use the cloud to transfer schedules, themes, song edits, database changes rather than always needing to use a thumb-drive. However - as incredibly beneficial this would be, it's not a deal-breaker at this time.

Site licensing was a key factor in choosing EasyWorhip over other platforms. Also the intuitive nature of the product makes it easy to on board new volunteer workers to the team.

No complaints. EasyWorship was easy to set up and operate and a snap to train new volunteers.

Installation and set-up were easy to complete. There are a wide variety of media backgrounds that come standard with the service. You can upgrade to a premium service that allows for even better media backgrounds. You can find and complete online training as needed.

The song reporting feature can be a little difficult to manage util you get used to doing it.

It is extremely easy to use, which makes it easy to train volunteers to operate. Also, it is a HUGE advantage to be able to easily reach a real person for tech support for the few times that we have needed it.

There is a learning curve involved in extending the desktop for viewing through projector. Once that step is learned, it is very easy to operate.

How quickly we could implement using and ease of training new users.

Going into version 6, we had issues with showing videos from DVDs. It wasn't until I had spent hours of trying new things, switching out video cards, and time with Tech Support that I was told that they has seen some issues with a certain brand of computer when playing DVD videos, which we have been using, but there were no warnings about that we we upgraded to that version.

My favorite part about this software is the ease in which the user can quickly put Bible verses on the screen if they have not been informed about them prior. I used this as a music minister before I became senior pastor, and our pastor would frequently quote scripture throughout his sermon that he had not given to me beforehand. This software proved better than any other I have used at being able to quickly put a scripture on the screen, and being able to quickly alternate between translations. With a little practice, I could have the scripture on the screen before the pastor finished saying “John 1:1 says.” The other software I’ve used has made this task difficult.

Integrating media proves to be troublesome much of the time. We frequently had issues with video files that, even though they had been loaded onto the computer itself, would not play correctly from the software. We ended up resorting to simply playing video files through another media player, then changing the desktop mirroring following the end of the video so that we could begin using this software again. We also had issues at times (though less frequently) with looped video backgrounds causing the program to crash. This occurred on multiple PCs, each with a processor more than capable of handling the looping video, and with multiple looping videos, which leads me to believe it is an issue with the software.

This interface is intuitive and easy to use. The layout is clean and flexible. Overall for church presentation software it offers all of the features that I need. I rarely have a request or task that I can't fulfill in one way or another by using EW. They are continually adding features and functionality. When I do have the rare problem, I never feel like I'm left to fend for myself as their customer service is always friendly and ready to help. I also love the integration with Song Select.

I would like to see some better tools for "tagging" of resources and also some richer photo and video editing functions. They have a remote function that lets the user control the application with a mobile device. As much as I love this feature, I have a difficult time getting it to connect on a consistent basis and the lack or reliability leave me uncertain about depending on it.

The scheduling feature within EasyWorship is what sets it apart from other programs for me. We are a small congregation with limited resources (both financial and human) so fact that I can have our schedule developed in 10 minutes or less is great. Also, last minute changes are simple to make along with being able to pull up scripture in seconds.

Really have not found anything missing over the 2.5 years of using EasyWorship 6. We just upgraded to EasyWorship 7 which has some additional features.

One of the best features of this software is the app you can control the entire program on (as long as you have wifi). We continuously use the app to enhance the availability of the software throughout the building and the services. The software allows the user to import their own images, videos, PowerPoints, etc easily, while storing it effectively in a database with a search function. Great starter software for churches looking to expand their visuals within their services.

There are times previews (especially while importing PowerPoints, images or videos) only show a black screen. That is a minor inconvenience, but probably one of things that makes the typically user friendly software less effective.

Well the first thing i noticed the first time to use it is that its very easy to use and its ability to to project from multiple screens,well honestly that was a goal.
Another great thing about easy worship is how easy it is to project song lyrics like for example in congregation or a church service when it comes to worship,it really give you the ability to control slides to slides whenever you want and how you want it.
Last thing is the ability to import videos from youtube much easier with easy worship which can be showing videos from youtube a great success through this software.

Well it just seems outdated and harder compared to other softwares like pro presenter but still better than epic worship.
But anyways though the software has some difficulties,it is still on of the best easy softwares to use

EasyWorship allows us to integrate song lyrics and Scripture text quickly for the congregation and live-stream. EW integrates with SongSelect, for importing the song lyrics, and with PowerPoint presentation. There is also a built-in presentation application, which we are using for a countdown announcement loop. Video can be output as NDI, if you want to use a camera input, then export to a video distribution service or OBS.

The built-in web browser is Internet Explorer, which is now obsolete. EW only supports three video outputs – control screen, main projection and foldback. We added a video distribution box on the projection output, so that we can feed EW into our ATEM Pro for livestreaming.

- easy to operate and to train volunteers with limited computer expertise to use it
- easy to add new songs from the CCLI website to the church's data-base of songs
- easy to create a schedule of songs, liturgy and Bible readings for church services
- NDI output stream means no complex setup to link to OBS software for livestreaming

- there no version of the ESV Bible with UK spellings !

Full featured and robust enough to add multimedia for an overall excellent presentation. Able to be controlled remotely.

Would like to see enhanced support for the confidence monitor if used.

Recently I had [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] help me solve some powerpoint compatibility issues. He was amazing! He was patient and walked me through how to make everything work. He is the reason I am still connected to Easyworship. Tech support is everything when it comes to choosing software. I am so pleased with his competency and patience with non tech folks like me. He deserves a BIG raise! Thank you [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] for your kindness and awesome help!

It sometimes has issues with windows powerpoint.

It is only a couple of clicks away to show a slide or song, with a lot of integrations (Bibles, Media and Presentation File). Not to mention, the Nursery and Alert that help during a worship.

I dislike it when:
The presentation File font does not resize based on the output screen size. After a whole night of creating a Presentation file in EW, I would have to resize it manually when showing it live despite my effort to use the 'automatic' font sizing.
