Clean, simple websites for churches large and small

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: When it came time to redesign our website, I did a lot of research. I had heard of Nucleus, so I looked into what it offered. I decided to give it a try and have not regretted that decision. I had a lot of pages to rebuild when switching over, and it was done in way less time that it would have been done on other editors. The pages that Nucleus creates are clean, modern, and feature only what you need. And the fact that it is designed mobile-first means that it is future-proof in this digital age!

Pros:

Nucleus is incredibly easy to use. The interface is clean and straightforward, and putting pages together is quick and painless!

Cons:

There are features that more full-fledged website management software offers, but Nucleus is always iterating, and they have many more features planned that have been requested by users!

Best All-In-One Church Software

5.0 5 months ago

Comments: We have loved nucleus from the very beginning. Installing the launcher on our website as a central hub allows people to sign up, give, and stay up to date with all with one login for church admins, and attendees as well!

Pros:

I love the low rate on donation fees. It's the lowest you'll find anywhere. When you consider everything it includes, Nucleus offers CHMS, email, stock footage, social posts, giving, event registration, website builder and a sermon engine all for $199 month.

Cons:

They lack third party integration with a lot of major church softwares. You have to manually export CSV files in order to migrate people or update information. They also deposit online giving once or twice a day, which makes reconciliation a bit tedious.

Nucleus - A Must!!!

5.0 last year

Pros:

Easy to use and simply to help reach your community for Jesus. Highly recommend.

Cons:

It too a few minutes to learn - but not too hard for the average tech savvy.

Nucleus is a no-brainer for small to mid sized churches.

5.0 last year

Comments: Phenomenal. Top notch customer service. Incredible team. [sensitive content hidden] is a visionary and we leave a long lasting mark on the Kingdom.

Pros:

The ease of use. I can train several volunteers to run Nucleus because they have simplified it for the church. Their platform is driven by the mission to be invitational instead of just inspirational.

Cons:

I wish I didn't have to use other platforms to manage my people or schedule services (planning center) but it makes sense because I've been able to condense my web platform to stay with Nucleus. I used to use squarespace so that at least helped me consolidate that aspect of our platforms.

THE BEST all-in-one suite of website, social media, donation management products (+ beyond) around!

5.0 last year

Comments: Again, clean, sleek, easy to use. And the team is top notch — helping my church any and every way they possibly could. I am very grateful for products and companies like Nucleus. You cannot go wrong with using Nucleus.

Pros:

Nucleus is hands down the best all-in-one suite of website, social media, donation management (+ beyond) around! I personally didn’t utilize the donation management side of things in my last church, but if we hadn’t already been so deeply rooted in utilizing Planning Center products, I would’ve had us make that switch in a flash. Clean, sleek, incredibly easy to use.

Cons:

I honestly cannot say I disliked anything during my period of use within my last ministry. My only “regret” is having to stop using it.
