“The biggest feature that ProPresenter lacks is fool-proof collaboration. If multiple people are creating a playlist (e.g., a weekly Sunday service), then they must be very careful in merging their efforts into a single master.“

### "This App is a Must-Have for any Worship Team"

December 23, 2025

5.0

I have been using ProPresenter since it debuted. It was a game-changer then, and still is. From presentation creation to service flow, timing, etc, ProPresenter is superb and is a must app for any worship team.

Pros

The design of the software makes it very intuitive for a beginner to use, yet is also robust enough for those who want to do more with the app. I like the new design.

Cons

The learning curve for the more graphical features and slide movement can take a while to learn. The software can do SO much that it is important to "read the manual." This is not necessary to use, but to use the software at it's fullest, some time should be spent in the manual.

More robust and easier to use than PowerPoint. Graphics much better.

### "The Best by Far, but a Little Tough to Learn Initially"

January 19, 2026

5.0

I've seen a few competitors innovate in this space over the years, but there's a reason ProP has remained on top for most. It listens to its customers and continues to innovate for them. The product is anything but stale.

Pros

It offers nearly every possible feature you'd need for video production at a church or similar venue. It has great integrations with other platforms. It's also highly flexible for whatever your setup is. I even used it once to run and control an escape room we built for a company team week!

Cons

ProPresenter has continued to rapidly innovate with new features and capabilities over the years, making it extremely powerful. Unfortunately, as its functionality has grown, so has its learning curve. If you've been along for the entire ride, you've probably incrementally learned new features and new UX changes as they've been added. However, if you're new to using ProP, it can be very daunting to know where to start. I'd for sure recommend watching YouTube vids or other types of training before jumping straight in and hoping to figure it out along the way.

### "The best presentation tool for your church"

March 4, 2026

5.0

This has been my go-to for lyric and video projection for years, and I don't plan on changing! It has been an extremely useful and dependable tool for corporate worship and special events. I put it on the Mount Rushmore of apps for worship ministry in the church today.

Pros

ProPresenter is the most stable, polished, and useful presentation tool for worship slides that a church can use. It is extremely feature-rich and scalable, yet simple enough for basic operation. There are many video training videos, and the customer help is excellent and responsive.

Cons

There's not much to not like! I have had trouble with Bible licensing purchases in the past, as well as the new model for device licenses. However, I think that has been worked out.

### "Such and tired of horrible programming."

December 7, 2025

2.0

It's slow, it's buggy, it's not user friendly at all. There is no real help program that initially leads the user through a problem to diagnose and solve it.

Pros

Absolutely nothing. My church has been using PP for long time and we have been suffering from it's buggy issues the whole time. I have asked Manny times that we find something else but for some reason people like to suffer.

Cons

Almost everything about it has a problem at some point. One week the status goes to Orange and nothing will display. The next week it freezes in the middle of worship every few verses.

### "A sprinkle of bad, but a cup of lots of Good"

August 14, 2025

4.0

I really do appreciate the company of ProPresenter! Though I do have a love/hate relationship with it. Super easy to function, navigate, and have Songselect as an interface to receive music that lasts forever in library. I love how you can have videos, powerpoints, slides, countdowns, the Bible app all on one device. I just get frustrated when it does not want to work on a Sunday morning.... which happens quite a lot. It is easy to train individuals to work the program without having lots of training.

Pros

ProPresenter is modern, the user face is super friendly compared to other church audio/visual products out there, it is great for it's value of money, and customer support is very good and efficient.

Cons

ProPresenter likes to go chaotic sometimes, especially on a Sundy morning. It will go several minutes loading until you get to the home page or it says "not responding" for so many minutes. It sometimes freezes randomly here and there.

Switched from

[EasyWorship](https://www.capterra.com/p/101489/EasyWorship/)

It was hard to get customer service from this specific program. The interface was not easy to work with or navigate. It helped that I specifically have used ProPresenter in the past as well as Easy Worship to compare.

### "A massive changing"

February 1, 2025

5.0

I started use ProPresenter five years ago, thanks to a video of a worship song I saw on the internet. I noticed they used a different software for presentation than usual (in Italy is no diffused at all, almost among the Catholics). I started to understand how it works through video training and finally I decided to use it starting from creating some presentations of my personal worship songs I wrote. Then song after song I developed an entire database for the church where I minister and finally we use it for every kind of service (Mass service, Holy adoration, Youth service, meetings). I trained some operators to do the same so now I can get all the help we need for our church.

Pros

That you can combine so many features together for you worship live experience

Cons

the remote app is not truly updated from a long time

### "You will be sorry for purchasing Propresenter"

December 11, 2024

1.0

When it works it is great. However, often they push updates that are terrible. When one of these faulty updates come out, they mess up the whole product. When it does it is super hard and time consuming to have fixed. In fact, I have been waiting since Saturday to have our product fixed. The reason that I am having to wait, is because it has to be at propresnter's convenience. I do not recommend this product, unless you are a software engineer. If you do not have much experience with programs like this......you will wish you never purchased this program. I wish I hadn't. Procontent has some good things, as well, but I think that it was misrepresented as well.

Pros

To be honest. I do not have much to say good about it. When the product works, it is a great product. However, they push updates that they do not check, and it constantly causes issues with the program. When you need support it is always on their time, and at their convenience. They have no support on the weekends, and they sometimes push the updates on Fridays that have issues and then you are scrambling for another program to substitute propresenter, becasue it will not work. In the past these updates have caused issues to the presentation screens, the program itself, files not being recognized; and often times you are not able to use the products that you purchased from them. They have no recompensation policy, so if they mess and they often do.....there mistake is on your time and dime.

Cons

The updates. Their timing is terrible. It is almost if they expect that you should have IT person on staff. They take no real responsibility for the actions that constantly cost their customers time and money.

### "Great Presentation Software"

January 27, 2025

4.0

I dove in to ProPresenter, watched their training videos and got started. Relatively easy to set up basics, more complicated to understand subtleties

Pros

Its ease of use, being able to broadcast to so many different views at the same time.

Cons

It takes a bit of training/use to really operate some basics.

### "Stable, powerful software for church production"

December 18, 2024

5.0

ProPresenter is a stable, reliable, feature-rich presentation software that is ideal suited for churches that continue to improve, both in stability and features. It works for those looking for a simple upgrade from PowerPoint and allows you to grow in your use and implementation as your needs change.

Pros

I love the versatility and flexibility ProPresenter offers. It allows me to not only present images, graphics, and videos to our church congregation for our services but also for many advanced features, such as outputting a lower thirds signal to our video switcher and taking video inputs in to put on our screen (using NDI). I also find the software to be very stable and easier to use than other presentation software I've used in the past. I also enjoy that I can pair ProP with Companion to allow it to interface with other software and hardware, such as our video switcher and sound board.

Cons

As an advanced software program, it can be challenging for new volunteers to master features beyond operating a prepared "show". However, there are many videos and written tutorials, including from Renewed Vision, which are helpful for initial training.

Alternatives considered

[MediaShout](https://www.capterra.com/p/140318/MediaShout/)[FreeShow](https://www.capterra.com/p/251606/FreeShow/)

Reason for choosing ProPresenter

Ease of use, feature support, and most importantly, technical support from Renewed Vision. There are also many non-RV people who teach and share about how to use ProP.

### "Sunday morning user"

December 19, 2024

4.0

Overall I'm just scratching the surface of what you can really do with the software and resort to YouTube videos to learn.

Pros

I switched to ProPresenter because both PowerPoint and Keynote would crash due to too many video backgrounds and presentations.

Cons

I don't like how you can't organise the playlist bins. Many times, you'll have to scroll to the very end of your background slides to get the newest ones instead of them coming up first.

We use ProPresenter is several different venues on both Mac and PC. We love it and when I had an issue, customer service didn’t give up until they found a solution!

ProPresenter 18 is awesome, more features that are quite advance and looking forward to using them - lower third being one.

Pros

The 3 work areas within ProPresenter, and how they are clearly identified so that there's no confusion

Cons

The hidden menus - some of them can be upfront so that there's no need / or less time spent in looking them up on the system.

### "ProPresenter For Churches"

May 10, 2024

4.0

ProPresenter offers churches so much. It is a great software to purchase and use.

Pros

ProPresenter allows you to easily choose a variety of backgrounds, let's you edit text easily, allows you to put your slides in order, and labels everything appropriately.

Cons

There are several different systems displaying lyrics. It is all in what you get used to. I have used Powerpoint, MediaShout, and ProPresenter. It takes time to learn anything new and unfamiliar and everything has its pros and cons. ProPresenter overall is a great choice. Just be sure to give yourself time to learn all of its features.

Our experience with propresenter has been fairly good. A few times they have had some minor software issues. But for the most part these issues have been corrected with updates.

Easy to use media projection software for church services. Our media team can easily project images and video on multiple large screens during services.

Cons

Propresenter has attempted to go to more a subscription model for their software.

We have been using Pro for around 15 years now and it helps us take many forms of media and information to put into a seamless presentation that feels like more of a journey we take people on rather than just diseminating information or teaching

Pros

It's so versitile and useful to incorporate a variety of media, announcemnets, and background and it creates a flow of presentation that is seamless and alllows for smooth transitions between video, audio and informational slides.

Cons

January 21, 2025

ProPresenter is wonderful because it does what it's supposed to do. It can easily be run by a volunteer, and yet, for those willing to dive in, there are a plethora of additional options to enhance your live services. I have been able to fine-tune ProPresenter sucessfully for many different environments.

Pros

I love the ease of use for ProPresenter. It is not challenging to teach this to volunteers. The fact that I am able to change the program layout and text size on preview slides so quickly to match my volunteer's needs is terrific.

Cons

Bugs do pop up occasionally with new versions. These are usually fixed quickly, though, and support is responsive.

Loved it! It made life way easier and made it so that you could mostly depend on it coming through for you.

Pros

Ease over all of adding lyrics and backgrounds. Although glitchy at times, it’s above and beyond the others.

Cons

Glitchy and would be harder to find things easily. But it may have improved since I used it last. It has been awhile. But I bet it’s even better now.

I have been using Pro Presenter for years now and love how professional the Sunday presentation is every week. The customer service I receive is always a super class act- so helpful and polite!

Pros

Pro presenter is an incredibly powerful tool. But it’s also very easy to learn. And the tutorial videos are wonderful!

Cons

I guess one of the things that I like most is also one of the most difficult for me as well. Pro Presenter is so complex that if you don’t keep up with learning all the features, you quickly can get behind.

### "10+ years: ProPresenter performs"

January 6, 2025

5.0

We use ProPresenter occasionally, and have found it always performs more robustly than other solutions (whether free or paid). I love the affordable Bible versions, CCLI integration, and motion backgrounds, too.

Pros

I've been a fan of the simplicity and stability of ProPresenter for ten years. I'm also very impressed with their quick and efficient support. In my position, I've used several different church presentation solutions over the years, and ProPresenter is worth the expense and the time it might take to transition from another platform. As a video professional, I appreciate the robust playback and the flexibility it offers to adapt to unique projection situations.

Cons

We had trouble keeping track of who in our organization was "occupying a seat", but now with the new subscription plan, that should be eaiser to manage.
