Blog - v13 Sneak Peek

Rock Version 13 is just around the corner. We can’t wait to share with you the new projects we’ve been working on. v13 is full of upgrades to make your Rock experience even better, speed improvements to help you zip through communications and entity commands, and brand-new features designed to help you better minister to your people. We’re inviting you to peek behind the curtain and discover the great things coming in Rock.

• New Media Tools
  Digital media is vital in the post-pandemic world. You’re already using streaming services to connect with members. Now you can pull the data from your streaming platforms into Rock and tie it directly to person records. You can see how individuals are interacting with the media in Rock, and customize their user experience across multiple platforms. Members can start a video on the web, then pick up where they left off on their phones the next day!
• Check-In Celebrations
  Celebrating small victories can help cement major life change. Now you can celebrate member attendance streaks right on the check-in screen. Toss the confetti, toot the horns, make sure they know you see the things they’re doing well. These celebrations can even be customized with a little Lava know-how.
• Brand New Giving Analytics Features
  We’ve redesigned the person profile page to show giving data right up front. It’s not about the dollars, but about the growth. Track how your congregants grow in trusting God with increased giving, celebrate special gifts, and use giving trends to indicate if someone is experiencing life change. Giving trends are specific to each person so you can use giving data to know when to reach out.
• Lava 2.0 & Entity Commands 2.0
  You won't believe how much faster Lava 2.0 is! Every script is 30% faster, with some larger scripts up to 500% faster. With updated Lava and Entity Commands, there are so many enhanced capabilities, the possibilities are endless.
• Better SMS Conversations
  You can text more naturally thanks to the new SMS image feature. Just upload an image in SMS conversations screen. Plus, you can now save SMS conversations as notes directly to the person record without ever leaving the conversation.
• Variable Pricing in the Rock Shop
  Some plug-ins in the Rock Shop can be a little pricey, especially for churches on a tight budget. Now, plug-in authors can choose variable pricing to accommodate the different church sizes on Rock. This also allows for more financial sustainability for plug-in creators.
• And so much more!

There’s so much great stuff coming! We're looking forward to rolling v13 out to the Rock community.
