This is an easy to use system for communities like mine where there are a lot of changes in schedules. At first I found it difficult to use because I was making it too hard. I love how I can customize. It was easy to import my own choices.
The system has been installed at Trinity Church North Scituate R.I.
There has been a delay in starting the system that would not load into Windows 10. With help from your staff the system has been up and running for a couple of days. It sounds very, very good. Better than what we had expected. The ability to program many days in advance is going to work to our advantage. In the future, if there are updates that may be of help to us, please let us know. Please thank your staff for the help they have given us.
This was a pleasant surprise. Our old church carillon is working again after so many years of being idle. Thanks to eCarillon, we can hear our bells again.
This was added to our collection. Great sounds!
Our church had been using another program that looked and functioned like it had been built at the dawn of the digital age. Transitioning to this product has been a game-changer as it was easy to install and took little time to become proficient at creating and/or changing schedules. We are using this on an old Toshiba Laptop that had been updated to Windows 10 with only 4 GB of ram and we found that the schedule would not run consistently but upgrading ram to 8GB solved that issue. (Not related to the program but more the hardware we were running on)
Very happy with the features. It has made changing to Christmas music during the season a breeze. I love the ability to schedule.
My church's Bell System broke down a month ago and we were looking to try to save money your software worked excellently. a inexpensive swap to make our Bell systems work before Christmas. thank you
With the help of your staff I was able to make the transisiton from demo to licensed product. It has been perfoming flawlessly at the church. So glad we found you. God Bless you all. Stephen
We purchased the software several months ago but, unfortunately had to get some speakers replaced before we could use it. We are now up and running and everyone is thrilled to hear chimes from our church again. Lowell Avenue Baptist: Campbellsville , Ky
The sound of the bells comes thru beautifully. Thank you for the great music
We had an old system that had quit working, but still had an old amp and speakers, so we had donated a laptop, purchase your system, and we were online immediately, highly recommended
Thank you so much for supplying YOUR digital Bell System that is absolutely perfect, it replaces a premier system that cost over $6000 . Extremely easy to program on your computer and works flawlessly, once again the bells toll across the grounds of NORTHHOUSEHOMEANDGARDENS.COM and GREET many of hundreds of GUESTS per year. Joseph helped me program and could not have been any nicer or knowledgeable… MANY THANKS HIGH RECOMENDATION!!!!!
Good package. Easy to setup. Music selection available with purchase. Easy to add songs.
Bought this to replace old out of commission tape deck type system for church.
One you start to use its fairly intuitive.
Loaded on a windows 11 pro mini pc.
Unfortunately we found our speakers were bad so we have not been able to start using it yet. Hopefully soon!
Program works well, like how it sounds. Two enhancements would be nice:
1. Allow renaming of template after it is created.
2. When template calls for random play from a playlist, keep track of which songs were played, and do not repeat a song until entire playlist has been played. Should take just a few lines of code.
Also, would be interested in additional hymn collections to be made available at no or low cost.
Our goal was to once again hear chimes from our towns clock tower. After getting pricing from a company to replace our old unit at a $11,000. Price tag, it was out of the question. By using ECarrollin we were able to get our chimes back and running for only $400. The set up process was easy to download and now our towns people are happy.
Software does what it is supposed to. Easy to set up. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a cost-effective carillon.
I wouldn’t call it the most user-friendly application in the world, but after you click around enough, you can figure it out. It works – that is what was important to me. Using the application on a computer was also important. The computer automatically adjusts for daylight savings time and resyncs the time with the internet every day. It’s nice having the bells ring precisely at the correct time. I do like the feature to randomly pick a song to play. I used that feature to have it close the day at 7:00 pm by randomly picking one song to play from a list of about 25. I also have it switching to randomly pick a Christmas song from the day after Thanksgiving to New Year’s Day. I would actually give it a 4.5 star rating, however that was not an option.
I purchased the eCarillon package a few years ago to revive my church's obsolete chime system. It works extremely well and we've had nothing but Rave reviews of it.
Now, another local church contacted us and inquired about getting something similar for their church. So, I advised them to get the package from eCarillon, and they couldn't be more pleased with their new chime system.
I just purchased this software as a donation to our church and have been using it for almost a week. It installed to an older (2016 model) Windows computer very easily and since we weren't using that computer for anything else, we were able to dedicate that computer for the chimes system. However, the computer can still be used for other things while running the chimes system if desired. The system is extremely easy to use. You can make any type of schedule you want. You can create a schedule from scratch or build off of an already existing schedule template and save it under any name you desire. We have both song packages (the 50 hymns and also the Christmas carols). It is also easy to import other mp3 music files and play whatever you want through the outdoor speakers. Since we have a school here at South Aiken Baptist in SC, we have the bells set not only to chime on the hour but to play a few songs at noon, at 3:15pm (when school lets out), and at 6pm. We also have them set to play music on Sundays during the 15 minutes of time we have between Sunday School and morning worship as people are going from one building to the other and they also play at 12:10pm as church is letting out and people are going to their vehicles. They also play at 6pm on Sundays. If church lets out early, there is the quick play option where we can simply go to the computer and play a song from the library or any other playlist right away. They sound quality is extremely good. Since I am an Apple guy, I hope to see Apple compatible software for this product one day. However, it has ran flawlessly for us even though it is on a Windows computer. If any new products for this system are developed, I plan to be the first in line to purchase them. This budget friendly system (which is worth way more than it costs), has brought back to life, our outdoor speaker system that had not been used in over 20 years before now. I can't thank eCarillon enough for their amazing product.
I am happy with this software, it works exactly as I need it to. It is easy to install and it is easy to use. Customer service is excellent and immediately. I recommend eCarillon to my friends.
