Als gemeente willen wij betrokken zijn met elkaar, efficiënt de organisatie van de kerk onderhouden, elkaar ondersteunen en nog veel meer. Onze eigen mobiele app helpt ons hierbij! Dankzij onze unieke groepenstructuur helpen wij kerken beter te communiceren. Met de hele gemeenschap, maar ook onderling. U kunt zelf groepen toevoegen en mensen daarvoor uitnodigen. Een slimme timeline zorgt er voor dat iedere gebruiker persoonlijke en relevante informatie ziet. Steeds minder mensen hebben cash geld. Met de Donkey Mobile collecte feature kunt u geven via uw smartphone, binnen twee klikken. Snel en effectief, waarbij 100% van uw donaties naar het goede doel gaat! Wel zo eerlijk. Bekijk de agenda voor uw hele gemeente, maar ook voor specifieke groepen. Dankzij het slimme groepensysteem krijg je een agenda op maat voor jou. Koppel het vervolgens aan uw eigen agenda en mis niks! Wie zoekt er tegenwoordig nog een telefoonnummer op in het telefoonboek? Vrijwel niemand! Dankzij de gemeentegids feature is iedereen binnen uw kerkelijke gemeente terug te vinden. Snel berichten sturen, naar een adres navigeren of zien wat iemands rol in de kerk is? Met de digitale gemeentegids wordt het makkelijk.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: PGOS at none against PostNL's shown. PostNL's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
