Onform: Video Analysis App 4+

Adding to our review from a year ago:
OnForm just keeps getting better. It was great before, it’s better now.
The developers keep upgrading and improving the product, so your experience and your capabilities are constantly growing. They know their product and their users and are passionate about helping coaches get the job done easily and effectively. None of the products out there can hold a candle to it. It makes the job of analysis fun again. If you haven’t tried it you’re really missing out. Thanks again OnForm making such an exceptional product!

This is an amazing app in so many ways. I have been a professional analyst for high performance swimming over the past 35 years First the video is high-quality HD and the analysis tools are excellent, user-friendly and accurate. What I love most about it is the video and file sharing. It’s a powerful and easy to use content delivery system, which allows you to combine videos to create original content for your audience and deliver it in seconds. The unique communication system is beyond anything I have experienced for sports analysis. I love the private messaging and broadcast lists features. The support team is easy to get a hold of, innovative, and only too glad to help. Get this app - it will totally change your ability to connect, provide insightful feedback and develop your athletes. Way to go OnForm!

Thanks for the amazing and thorough review. We greatly appreciate it and we’re so happy you are finding the app useful!

Since using OnForm my life as a golf coach has become much simpler. I no longer have to spend time in my camera roll organizing photos with each student having all of their videos, documents, photos, etc. all stored within the OnForm app under their name. Also, I do nit have to go through my emails and/or text messages to find communications between me, their mental coach, physical coach, parent, the student, etc. All communications are stored with the students name. Just these two features alone have saved me hours!

I was worried about the time it would take to switch to a new app. But once I saw that you can mass import everything right into a players name, I was relieved.

This app has tons and tons of cool features! One of my favorites is the ability to have my iPhone set up on a tripod and using their auto capture feature, I can show the student their swing on my iPad within a very short period of time. This feature alone costs thousands with other apps after you buy the cameras and computer.

I could go on and on but to wrap it all up, all of your photos, videos, documents, messages, emails, etc. stored under your students name are stored on the apps cloud. Unbelievable!

We’re so happy to hear you’ve found all of our functionality so useful! We designed the app to be a true platform for coaches, and we couldn’t be more proud that we’re making your life better with the tools we’ve created. Thank you!!

I started using OnForm as a previous Hudl user. Getting onboarded to using OnForm was okay, but the navigation was confusing at first. It is weird that you have to go into Library of videos, from the Home screen, to simply start recording a new video. Seems like an unnecessary step. I like the way the app automatically optimizes the camera settings to the specific lighting in which you are filming. But, the biggest negative to the app, is the flywheel. It’s a major downgrade from Hudl. In order to replay your videos frame-by-frame, you use the flywheel to scroll. But if your finger lets off the flywheel for just a moment, the flywheel disengages, the drawing button engages, and you have to move scroll with your finger again to-reengage the flywheel. It’s annoying because I am often watching videos closely and exclusively using the flywheel to make the video progress, amd I keep having to “recapture” the flywheel to make it engage again. You have so much space on your phone to scroll, so by the time I get the flywheel responding to my scrolling, I have to let off to reposition. It’s just not very gold for people who don’t use the “play” function to play the video and instead want to use the fly wheel so they can constantly go forwards and backwards as the need to as they watch the replay.

Hi Jimmy,

That’s good feedback. We’ll look to improve that experience.
