Best way to run a swim meet!
04/06/2022
By Wolfie2017🐺
I am a supervisor for a local governmental agency and we are host to a variety of swim teams and programs. We have been running our recreation swim team through CARA and up until we made the switch to Swimmingly, we were still seeding and heating our meets using the pink and blue cards! Using Swimmingly has been the best programming transition that we have ever made. We have already saved time and money as well as running out meets more effectively and efficiently. Parents love being able to see results, having a record of their kids times, and love volunteering to help with meets! Meets are fun and well organized now because everyone has the same information and the same tools to share the information! Teaching parents and kids how to use the app was easy and super user friendly! There are videos and lots of information to help walk you through the set up of a meet and how to run a meet effectively and set up is so much easier than using touch pads!Support staff is awesome, helpful and available. We appreciate them for and all their help in making this change. Awesome staff, awesome app!

Too many issues

Meet central has potential however there are too many issues to recommend this to others. The system is marketed to eliminate volunteers however it takes the same number, requires tech savvy volunteers to run a meet smoothly, and volunteers to print and process ribbons. It seems difficult to use with a league that has different configuration of pools with regard to the number of lanes and the length of the pools (meter vs yard pool). To run adequately you will need a dedicated iPad to run the meet, an iPhone or iPad for both the starter and stroke judge, and timers who have iPhones. All devices must not have charging issues (an Apple ongoing complaint). Sprint carrier iPhones are inferior and will not work with the system. The starter's cord did not work for us. To maximize the system both teams must be subscribers. Customer service is inconsistent to say the least if not insubordinate to the "customer ". They need field customer service agents to support their subscribed team's first couple of meets to assure a smoothly run meet.

Wow! My experience with Swimmingly has been nothing short of incredible! The robust app is equipped with the tools to generate a swim meet that is extremely efficient! As a multi-year user, I have had the privilege of not only using the software, but also seeing others use the swim-meet app! I couldn’t imagine running a swim meet without the handy features in the swimmingly app and want to extend a huge thank you to the developers behind this amazing product! Bravo, Swimmingly!

Horrible and ruins meets
06/12/2021

We have now suffered through 2 meets using this app and I cannot stress how bad they have gone. Timers continue to struggle and the meet starts and stops for them to reconnect. There is no flow and kids end up sitting in the sun burning. I have never seen so many swims have to be redone because the times never started, stopped or they can’t save it. The starter then reboots and we sit around for 15-30 minutes while they test and talk. The issues with timing and the app led to an extra few hours for the first meet and today after 5 hours we had just made 50% through it. This was a small meet that rarely had 2 heat. People started to just leave and the starters we trying to find enough stop watches to just stop using this app.I hope the teams agree to stop using this app and use anything else. Stop watches and paper would be a HUGE improvement which defeats the purpose of this app.
