About Excellerate
Excellerate is a church management solution designed for midsize and large churches and ministries that offers attendance management, group management, visitor tracking and reporting functionalities within a suite. The solution can be deployed either on-premise or in the cloud.
Excellerate enables users to perform member check-ins in three different ways - express mode, touch-screen mode or attendant mode. The express mode records attendance with the help of barcodes and key tags. The touch-screen mode allows members to look up their records on the tablet application and punch in their attendance, while the attendant mode allows volunteers and attendants to punch in attendance.
Excellerate features membership management, which allows users to create member records using customizable fields. Based on information in the records, users can send targeted emails and mass messages based on attributes such as attendance and physical location.
The volunteer management functionality of the solution allows users to schedule volunteers based on their availability, send email or text notification and access their assignments.

An Excellent Transition
Excellerate has always been very critical to us in stewarding over our donors' contributions.
Pros
We have been with Excellerate for many years and recently integrated to ATOM in 2022. Although I'm usually hesitant when making big changes, the transition was very smooth and it wasn't very difficult to learn the new way of entering and tracking donations. I just completed the year end donor statements for 2022 and it was so quick! Tech support has always been very quick & reliable.
Cons
The only negative (which is a very small one) is that it takes a little longer and more use of the mouse to enter donation batches.

I have used this in my current role.
Pros
This software is a really great data base. You can collect and organize data in an amazing way and communicate efficiently.
Cons
There is so much that this software can do which will slow it down at times. I totally understand and it's worth the wait.

Great Product complimented with Great Support
Being fairly new to the product, I have had an excellent experience modifying and adding the functionality my application requires.
Pros
The flexibility in most all areas is very obvious as each entity using the Excellerate product has needs for customization to make it fit more closely to their needs and this product has that ability. Excellerate provides it - in spades. Any request for assistance in operating and customizing the product has been met with immediate and accurate responses. The single best feature is the ability to import membership data from other applications in record time but depends on properly exporting the source data in the format utilized by Excellerate.
Cons
There was not single except that a knowledge of the SQL language is very helpful.
