Which Subscription?

Looking at using Proclaim and trying to decide which subscription we need - just the On Air, or the Pro Media as well. I have access to Pro Media in my Logos Media Tool. Would that show up when working in Proclaim?

If so, would that permit other team members to use the Pro Media I am using that week even if the Proclaim subscription doesn't include Pro Media?

If not, I assume that using the Pro Media in my Sermon Builder and then sending it to Proclaim allows at least me to use Pro Media in Proclaim. But then how does that effect the other team members? Can they, e.g., duplicate that Pro Media slide background that week even though they don't normally have access to Pro Media?

Hope these questions make sense.

    Hi Jordan

    I tried the Pro-Media subscription for a while and eventually gave up with it. I had hoped that over the years the offering would mature into a multi-denominational tool that would serve the wider church. I eventual took my money and subscribed elsewhere.

    The failures in the Pro-Media offering that I see are

    • Lots of slides that have text hard baked in that are only applicable to a small sub-set of American denominations.
    • Lack of full service headings in collections often with Offering, Prayer, Call to Worship, Blessing, Doxology headings missing.
    • Proved photos badly sized for modern projectors.

    Proclaim is a great program and the on-air licence well worth the expense but the Pro Media does not live up to expectations.

    Appreciate that perspective. I live in the UK, so your analysis seems relevant.
