SportLoMo Erfahrungen

Sportlomo have been a huge asset in advancing how we run our operations, weekly leagues and admin

Vorteile:

The software is user friendly and easily teachable. We work with over 50 clubs so shortening the time it takes to explain something new is key to reducing administration times. The support staff are constantly on hand to help us out with whatever we need and even our many upgrade requests are always accommodated. This season we also adopted Sportlomo for our membership registration on top of the league management system. This again, has made administration much easier, with players now able to pre-register for the following season 3 months in advance. We have been trying to introduce this for almost a decade and Sportlomo got it turned around in 6 months

Nachteile:

The only disadvantage to using the software is the time difference between our organisation in Canada and the head office in Ireland if something needs to be done urgently. However, they try their best to work outside office hours to accommodate our meeting requests.

Sportlomo software is very easy to use software for lay IT users in addition to users with IT Skills

Vorteile:

I work in the IT Sector and I have to say that Sportlomo is very easy to use software for the Sports Club St Finians GAA Club which I am Public Relations Officer of. The software is also very user friendly for the person who covers my role when I'm on holidays and who is a non IT person which makes the software very seamless for those using it. Sportsmanager, the Irish Sportlomo Software Agent are an absolute pleasure to deal with in carrying out change requests which are implemented in a very timely and efficient manner (within an hour of Sportsmanager receiving them for simple requests). Last year, our Sports club upgraded its website to a mobile responsive solution and there was a very seamless migration to the new website with no downtime. the customer representative and her team in Sportsmanager made the task of upgrading our website very easy and put me at ease in my dealings with them as the officer responsible for the website upgrade. What I further like about the software is that content on the new website is updated in exactly the same way as the old website therefore eliminating the need for retraining of those using it. We are absolutely delighted with our new website and I have been contacted by other sports clubs enquiring about how they can acquire a similar website solution. I have no hesitation in recommending Sportlomo as a website solution for Sports Clubs globally and also the Irish Software Agent Sportsmanager for Sports Clubs in Ireland.

Nachteile:

There is nothing that I don't like about using this software. Maybe if I could suggest of having the option to add more than one photo at a time for each news story.

USA Rugby has made the worst decision ever

Kommentare: None. It doesn't work.

Vorteile:

Nothing. There is little merit to switching to this platform. Previously USA Rugby had a different platform that was extremely easy to use. Local unions at the State level could then use their own software platforms to manage players, registrations, financials and reports. T

Nachteile:

It is one big BUG. Despite our registration being "open" for a week the majority of our players have been unable to register. This is due to the dates that dictate various age grades being incorrect. I have explained this to the contact at Rugby Colorado. She has indicated numerous help desk tickets, emails, etc. have been submitted but nothing has changed. The majority of our parents cannot register. The validation is terrible. If there are errors on registration it seems to pick up each field individually vs. in one batch. Constantly sends you to the Save button only to send you back into the form if another fields is incorrect. The reporting is useless. After I spent my time configuring our setup and adding custom fields for height, weight, shirt, short and sock size NONE of these fields actually showed up on the report I ran. Unless fixed this means I will have to chase every single parent for this information. Overall this software is not ready for a production release. As an IT professional I would have lost my job if this went live in its current state.

Very positive and if they don't "do it" or "have it" they have been committed to finding a way

Kommentare: Saved time, cut down errors, reduced the need for duplication of information and made more processes paperless.
Allowed me to communicate with a large number users, clubs, press and spectators (fixtures/results), players and Officials.
The officials were able to submit reports and also were informed of their games via text and e-mail based on electronically submitted availability. This allowed quick and straight forward reporting of data, key to streamlining processes.

Vorteile:

Integrates a number of the elements and systems key to delivering a smooth sporting programme. From league tables to referee assignments and discipline reports. All linked together to create a one stop shop. It also takes a large amount of the admin and more importantly the double checking of details away from the administrators and puts it in the hands of the people it is really there for the Clubs.

Nachteile:

Some elements have carried bugs and there was a period as they joined elements together where the time between flagged problems and/or requests were long and with limited communication. however, they have really turn things around and support is quick and communication much better. Some elements are still complex to use or long winded but they are continually improving the usability of the product for users and administrators alike.

Relatively happy with the software and my experience working with SportLoMo.

Kommentare: Far easier to manage competitions and fixture appointing form an admin perspective. Team sheets are clean and easy to review.

Vorteile:

I do the majority of my work on the competition management side of the system. I enjoy how easy it is to create and edit competitions and organize officials for fixtures. I also administer Team Sheets for my organization and the reporting system for team sheets is fantastic. It is really easy to get a high level view of which clubs are following our processes correctly. As a referee, its super easy to update scores and to view my fixtures through my dashboard. As an administer, its fantastic to not have to chase down scores the week after a competition has happened.

Nachteile:

There are some functions in the system that I would like to see adopted to make the lives of rugby administers easier. I do not like how you cannot sort for Age Grade or by registration date when you go to fill out a panel on team sheet editor. This makes it very difficult for clubs with hundreds of athletes to find the 30 athletes they want on their panel. The "ctrl+f" feature is not really useful as most of our clubs do not use this feature. I find the "All Competitions" page on our website to be very cluttered and confusing at times. It would be great if we could add in page breaks to separate competitions based on the competition level.

Sportlomo is a great system. I find it very user friendly and appreciate the functionalities.

Kommentare: The amount of autonomy in the system for our clubs is a huge benefit for our organization. It has been very beneficial to our organizations to be able to give club's their own control over the set-up and management of their club registration pages.

Vorteile:

The things that I like most about SportLomo, is the number of different functionalities within the system. Compared to other software systems Rugby Ontario has used in the past, SportLomo allows for a wide variety of functionalities (i.e. reporting, club set-up, custom fields, events, discount codes, upgrades, transfers, refunds, dual membership etc.) The SportLomo staff are also very innovative and are constantly working to build even more functionalities into the system to meet our organization's complicated and unique needs. The SportLomo staff are also very responsive and work quickly to resolve any technical issues if they arise.

Nachteile:

Our members who use the system, do not always have access to credit cards, therefore I do not like how the system does not accept debit. It would also be helpful to filter Game sheet panels by age grade to allow for coaches to locate their members faster when creating team sheets.

Very simple software to use, makes our competitions easier to run & improves communications

Vorteile:

Makes competitions easy to run effectively. Great selection of reports which help to keep competing teams fully up to date on how their team are doing. Link up with the website raises the profile of the competitions & the wide range we put on each season. The stats produced give a very accurate reading of the amount of activity at each of the age grades. Reporting the stats further increases the profile.

Nachteile:

The software has very little faults although I would like to see date of birth & school attended being included on the e-teamsheets. Addition of configurable competition parameters would also be a useful addition.

I find SportLoMo very helpful & always at the end of the phone or email whenever I need them.

Vorteile:

I love the way our website looks, it is very easy on the eye & looks very bright. We get a lot of positive feedback from our members. It is easy to maneuver around from an administrator. We have our membership registration on it along with our Lotto. We have it linked to our Facebook @ Twitter pages also. We use it for Club information and match reports & photos. SportLoMo are a great company to deal, very helpful & friendly. Nothing is ever a problem. Customer service is second to none. I would highly recommended them to any Club.

Nachteile:

I would like to be able to load up a number of photos at the same time, instead of loading them up individually.

This is an excellent system, easy use and in real time.

Kommentare: This is an excellent system for managing fixtures, and especially results and league tables.

Vorteile:

The system is Easyto use and real time updates, referee input the results and the magic happens. We can configure our competitions e.g. bonus points for a win, loosing bonus points etc and the system updates our leagus / cup tables or results once the result is inputted, it then appears live on the web site

Nachteile:

If I have any complaints its we as an orgisation do not make full use of the system, as stated above the fauots I find is with us as an orginsation and not necessarly with sports manager.

Generally a positive experience with company and find the tools useful.

Vorteile:

Developers are very responsive and try to find solutions that fit our organisation. The link between the membership functions and the league management functions works well. The flexibility is continually being added into the system. Easy search filters. Basic functionalities are straight forward.

Nachteile:

There is still a lot of repetitive tasks that need to be be done--ie setting up basic notification for clubs it starts with a blank state and you have to set up each individual type of notification with recipient and message. rather than have a default message you can edit. Administrator user accounts are still clunky and limited.

I had researched numerous providers before settling on SportLoMo. We have not regretted our decision

Kommentare: Helped greatly to increase the profile of our club

Vorteile:

I like the menu driven format that makes it easy to navigate through the editing and uploading of information. On occasions where we have requested new features and additions, like for example the ability to add youtube clips to our site. The work was carried out quickly and without fuss. It's also quiet easy to link news stories etc. with the various social media platforms. After just 2 years almost 70% of our membership is now done online through our website and it also serves to host our club shop and lotto draws.

Nachteile:

The only area in my opinion that would need a little tweaking is the uploading of photographs. I think this could be a little more streamlined.

Generally a positive experience of using SportLoMo for fixtures, results and reports

Vorteile:

Reports very beneficial in tracking KPIs and identifying development issues SportLoMo willing to look at requests for adaptation to/additions to requirements Staff easy to talk to and usually prompt in response Submission of results have meant that accurate league tables and scores are appearing on our website much quicker, thus being much more "live".

Nachteile:

At times addressing issues can take longer that expected. Sometimes changes are made to the system which we are not informed about.

SportLoMo Sports League Software

Vorteile:

It is easy to use and the back up support, no matter when, is exceptional. The vast majority of our games are on weekends and if there is a problem it's normally dealt with swiftly once reported.

Reliable, easy to use and efficient

Vorteile:

The back end is well laid out and easy to use. The texting system is very useful. The sheer scope of the back end is great.

Nachteile:

I don't like the photo upload feature sometimes I find it hard to update a lot of photos at one time it's not like Facebook for example

The mobile 'friendliness' is a work in progress, but it is progressing, we are looking forward to what the future brings.

Template website and Online Membership. Excellent Products and Service received

Kommentare: Using the online membership has allowed our club to gather monies easily and quicker. Anyone can login and register and pay their membership online through the website. Everything is done under the one roof.

Vorteile:

Online Membership has been a game changer for our club. It allows us to collect money through our Sportlomo website. Hugely beneficial in terms of raising money within a small rural club

Nachteile:

All good so far. Very happy with the service received to date. Support Team Staff are always very approachable

Sport LoMo review 2016

Kommentare: It has been a good experience, any tweaks required were dealt with expeditiously and without fuss. User friendly software although might require a user manual for a 'new user'.
