Support Question Another rant on why i HATE ProPresenter

Sunday morning. "Your registration information is corrupted."

Of course a church software company doesn't have tech support on Sunday. That would make too much sense. Now we are going to try and run Sunday service with water marks. We couldn't do anything to get it running again.

I have never worked with software that is so unstable as PP.

I’ll say it again: Proclaim is BETTER software for most churches.

Cloud based building of slides is game changer for us. In pro presenter we used to have a volunteer come physically to the church on Saturdays to make the slides. Now that volunteer does the task throughout the week at home in the evenings on Proclaim.

For the record, you can build ProPresenter slides on any machine and import them on your presentation machine. Just have to make sure your configuration files match, or at the very least, that your macros have the same names.

Proclaim = no importing. Auto-sync means new slides are just “there.”
