Lots of flexibility to customize it to your organization's needs. > > **Cons**: Reporting is not the easiest, but can be done when you take time to think through it and create the needed reports. > > Customization of the product to our needs. ----- ### "Ministry-Focused, Flexible, and Built for the Church" — 5.0/5 > **Ean** | *May 13, 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I appreciate most about Rock RMS is how ministry-driven and customizable it is. We’re not forced into a one-size-fits-all solution. Rock gives us the tools and flexibility to build solutions that actually serve people. The workflow engine is powerful, the website CMS is deeply integrated with the database, and the ability to track engagement over time helps us care for people more intentionally. > > **Cons**: Rock has a learning curve, especially for teams without dedicated IT or dev support. But the documentation and community are excellent, and once you invest in learning it, the possibilities are huge. > > Rock RMS has been a game-changer for our church. It’s more than a database, it’s a platform that helps us engage people, streamline ministry, and build for the future. The open-source model and active community mean we’re never alone, and the system grows with us. It’s clear that Rock was built with the Church in mind. ----- ### "Headache" — 1.0/5 > **Carolyn** | *October 17, 2018* | Civic & Social Organization | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: It seemed easy to use but difficult. Must watch all free > > **Cons**: I never could get it downloaded and I am very techie. I believe you first need someone to host..or host yourself..however it was not easy to install even with their demo install video. ----- ### "This product had revolutionized our church management." — 5.0/5 > **David** | *November 7, 2017* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's so easy to use. You can create whatever data metrics you choose. I love how I can keep track of our church members and put faces with names. > > **Cons**: You have to really think about what categories you need with the program. There are also several steps to forming groups. > > The organization of member information enables us to minister more effectively to their entire family. ----- ### "COMMUNITY + VISIONq" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *November 21, 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The team that supports Rock is incredible, and the people/Churches that use Rock are incredible. The ending result is a momentum that has fast forwarded Rock RMS past most, if not all, of the top applications that have been around for twice as long as Rock has. > > **Cons**: Nothing to report here. Rock so far has worked to close the gap on anything that arises as an issue. > > Awesome, the team behind Rock has been incredible and the community via slack has helped me more than I can count and we are still just implementing the tool. If you are a developer church or if you are an admin that just needs to get your church organized, Rock has a solution that fits the smallest and largest of churches. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2081358/rock-rms?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2081358/rock-rms) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
