We're looking into buying electronic membership software for our church. Any recommendations on what to try? I've been looking around online, but can't find good reviews anywhere. We're not looking for anything fancy. Something that is simple for our office staff to use would be best over something with more bells and whistles.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I like membership plus (we use 8.0) and are still trying to learn its bells and whistles, the key is to find someone in your area who can train in this, as there is no internal training set-up available, rom the company or on the disk.

We bought membership plus a few year back, but found it so complicated that we finally gave up on it. It did so many different things we couldn't figure out how to make it do the simply tasks we wanted it to do.
It left such a bad taste in my mouth that I haven't tried anything else.

It is fairly easy to use - basic windows application.
The software will allow exports in various formats.
Christian company based out of Ohio - they also have a few things designed for us Methodists...
Even to help us w/ our reporting which is nice...
Form 1 for the local report is a breeze w/ this
Our church used Shepherd's Staff for accounting, but they also offer membership management. I liked their accounting package...
