Fall Greetings to you, Breeze friends.

While supporting you in ministry, here at Breeze we’re constantly working to make things simpler, more powerful, and more productive for your church. Here’s an overview of changes made during the month of October, organized by feature. Some big... some small... all aimed to make your job easier.

Events

Ever wanted to print your Breeze calendars only to find the options limiting? New print options, now available in Events, allows calendar printing in a month, week, day and list view! Learn more.

Forms

When building a form, appearance and formatting are important elements. With that in mind, the Section Description field now has built-in formatting options (no more basic code knowledge necessary!).

Do you embed forms on your website? The embed code within forms got an update as well. The new embed code takes just the form fields (vs. placing the whole form in an iframe) and also allows you to specify colors in the embed code itself, both making for a better overall appearance.

And, if you were experiencing strange behavior while creating forms in the past few weeks, where your mouse was sticking to a form field, that too has been fixed!

Contributions

Graph view is a powerful way to visualize trends in your contribution data. A fix has been made to the Graph view when grouping contributions to Searching By Sum > Group by Family (or Time). Now, the graph view will populate when grouping contributions and provide you the information you’re looking for with ease.

Would you like to enter pledge promises into Breeze in a bulk fashion? There's a new Task for "Import Pledges" which includes a whole new import template specifically for pledges. Now you have more options when entering pledge promises to your campaigns.

Servers Upgraded

We’ve added significant server capacity to our cloud infrastructure to be able to better handle the current load as well as anticipated demands as we look to the future. This should result in a quick, fast experience, even during peak times.

Breeze Homepage

While this update doesn’t affect your daily tasks, it might make you smile :)

The Breeze Team, your friends in ministry, now appear on our homepage. Put a face with a name and celebrate the relationships being built! And, no, we don’t really look like avatars, hovering over our name reveals our true faces.

We’re constantly working to better serve churches by listening, improving, and refining. We hope these updates will allow you to better serve the people connected to your church.
It’s an honor to be involved in what you’re doing.

All of our database needs have been more than met, it's easier to use than the last database we had, and the price is amazing - what a value this has been to our church! All of our staff can use this software and they do regularly. We use it to track…literally anything a church could possibly need to track regarding it's attenders.

Breeze has been a great asset to our church and congregation. Especially from an administrative standpoint, it has been the most adaptable and easiest church database I have ever used. The features from blast emails to giving on-line, and texting have been one of our greatest assets. Thank you!

We switched from a major, web-based ChMS to Breeze and our decision is confirmed every day. We are a medium size church and we use Breeze for contributions, member management, event checkin and a few other applications custom to our church. I had trouble getting any staff to use our previous ChMS but almost all staff are using Breeze. The product is very well designed, extremely easy to learn and use and customer service is incredible.

Breeze has opened the communication highway for our congregation and staff, with very little training. Because members can update their own records and search easily for other members - and map their locations, send emails and text right from Breeze, they love it and our data is more real-time accurate. Our ministries are stronger, because they can trust the data in Breeze, which is easily accessed anywhere, anytime.

Breeze is the first ChMS my volunteers have actually embraced. That's because it's so easy to use. The software is very flexible and gives us the opportunity to make decisions based on actual data we've collected and not just hunches or stories we believe to be true.

I cannot say enough about Breeze. Their customer service is so friendly, you feel like you have friends and family helping you get started, they're prompt to reply and will do whatever they can to help you get things sorted out. It's been so easy to learn, our staff is loving it and best of all even our staff who are not computer savvy find it a breeze (pun intended). We are just thrilled by our choice.

From the start of our process looking for an online solution, Breeze has exceeded all our expectations. Fast data import, fast and friendly customer support, and we can’t say enough about how much we like the program itself. Very well designed and user friendly. On a scale of 1-10, Breeze gets a 15 from us!
