Intuitive presentation, with useful, searchable user forum(s). > > **Cons**: Active/inactive Household designations that also apply to member status and cannot be removed. All else we have been able to manipulate for our own purposes. > > I am a membership professional. I have worked peripherally with four different databases, two of which are famous and expensive. I have been able to do more with Icon than any of the others. ----- ### "Icon has helped our church grow without a headache" — 5.0/5 > **Carma** | *30 May 2019* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that any number of members of our church can access the system at any time, from any computer. No application download is necessary, just an internet connection. I like that it incorporates donor information with donations - links with the credit card company. I like that things that matter are customizable, like fiscal year of donation, fiscal year start and end dates, families with multiple last names. I love the searchable Q\&As, I have often found quick answers to my questions through that. I like the directory ap which we have just started using. I like that icon is always making improvements without making changes that change the functionality in a bad way, or a way that requires retraining. > > **Cons**: I don't find the canned graphs to be what I want, but since the data is easily downloaded I have made good use of excel and access to create what I want. I know there is a reporting module, but it is easier for me to use programs I already know. The attendance module has not been helpful to us, it is too cumbersome to identify attendance of individuals, we track attendance by raw numbers. This is more easily done for us separately in something like excel. Both a pro and a con - where the date ranges are customizable (which is a definite 'pro', they don't 'stick' when choosing a new fund or fiscal year or certain other choices, so they must be entered in again if the wrong sequence is used. Not a big deal, just an inconvenience. I wish there were a place for notes associated with the pledge page - to note specifics about household pledges if needed without having to go back to the household page for notes, also as sometimes $ notes are more confidential. I have not yet found where text input by the donor in Vanco webservices transfers to icon. I don't think it does and I wish it did. These are all minor 'cons', more like suggestions for future improvements. > > I was not involved in choosing the software, but I was involved early on as we started using it. I found it to be fairly intuitive especially for people with any database management background. As a volunteer, my involvement has varied in intensity depending on need and my availability and I find I can jump right in again after being away for a while. Icon and Vanco have both been very accessible for technical assistance. Our church has benefited a lot from this system. ----- ### "Church membership database" — 3.0/5 > **Linda** | *1 November 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I am able to search for names and create reports and groups pretty easily. I have only called Customer Service a couple times, but when I have they have been helpful and have answered my questions completely. > > **Cons**: We use just the database portion of Icon. There are a couple fields that should be linked so when making a change in one, it also updates the other. An example is when a member name is updated or deleted it does not delete it from the address box. To me it seems odd that these are separate fields. It also would be nice to have an option/place where we could put family connections. For example, when someone gets married they are removed from their parents household, but it would be nice to be able to somehow keep that connection. Maybe this isn't important to all that use this, but for our use it is nice to have these family connections. I wish there were more options for steps on how to do various tasks as what I am finding are just questions and answers by other users and not necessarily specific steps for doing certain tasks that anyone would need to do (ie: delete a member, etc.). So sometimes there are things that I need to do, but am not able to find an answer for. > > We are able to keep track of our membership and important dates. ----- ### "Over 13 years with ICON" — 4.0/5 > **Jodi** | *20 June 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: We have been using ICON for over 13 years, I personally have been using the software for 8 years. We have only purchased the membership and contributions no other accounting software. What I liked about ICON is the many options to create groups and talents of the membership. You are able to sort, export groups, and print labels many functions. The database for the households and each member you are able to track birthdays, baptisms, First holy communion, and marriages and so much more on each member. On both households and members you have many report options to print or view. The Archives love this option, a member is never truly deleted. We have had members move away for years then return to the parish. I always look in the archives to see what information we had on them and un-archive the member back to active status then update the information. The contributions are easy to enter, type a envelope and the amount pretty much that easy to record the tithing of parishioners. The email function in so many places you can email the membership and it records the email so can reference the message later. Overall we are very pleased with the ICON. > > **Cons**: One of my biggest complaints and it sounds very minor but we use a lot of groups. We have groups for households and groups for members. When you select a household then more information you can see the groups the household is part of. My biggest complaints is I can not add or delete a group from that household at that point. I need to go to the group sidebar - manage group to make changes for a household. However this function is available when you are in the member information, you can add or delete groups from the individual. ----- ### "Using ICON for church membership" — 4.0/5 > **Marlene** | *23 May 2019* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: With this software we are able to keep track of our members -- current and past. It is nice to be able to archive member information if they have passed away or transferred, it becomes a historical record. We are able to create reports and various groups based on our needs. For example, we have a group for those we mail bulletins to and for certain age groups for children. We are also able to create reports based on giving records; these records do not have to show personal information, the information can be data only. > > **Cons**: I find there are a couple fields in the member info that it seems like if I fill it out once, it should transfer to the smiliar field in another view, but it does not so we then need to fill it in/update it twice. For example, it would be nice if it would automatically pick up the 2 adult members from a household and make those the household name, but it does not, it only lists the name selected as "head of household." It is sometimes hard to find answers in the help section, it appears to be mainly questions others have asked, so sometimes the answers are out-of-date because parts of the software have changed/been updated. > > Overall it has been a good experience. The times that I have needed to call for help, I have had my questions answered. It is nice that it is cloud/internet based so that if I am off-site and need to do something/find something in the database, I am able to access it. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/119603/iconcmo?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/119603/iconcmo) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
