TeamSnap vs. Zen Planner

I have already recommended the app to other coaches in the district. We have also talked about implementing the app for our section and conference. Due to the volatile nature of our sports schedule, the quick and easy communication tool is invaluable. Also, the ability to send to multiple people on the same account is super slick.

I have used Zen Planner at 3 different Jujitsu schools. Every school that has used it, has had great success in keeping their attendance records straight for their students. This is great when promotions are coming up, or special seminars that need to reach everyone. I don't know that Zen Planner is a great product for places that don't need to communicate with their clients on a regular basis.

• It makes communicating with other parents and coaches easy
• It makes it easy to know what's coming up on the schedule
• It allows you to mark exactly which events you are able to attend

• Easy to use interface
• Payment processing is easy for classes or for a small retail shop.
• The free integrated mobile website is great for everyone to check out the calendar and even sign and pay from within it.
• I can also send emails right from the platform when I need to connect with a student.

• It would be nice to see who has viewed the notification message but has yet to respond.
• I would like to have an idea of how many people have viewed a message sent to the team.
• It's hard to know which communication channel is more effective - sending a message or using the chat feature.

Incentivized

• The only thing I would like to see, is the ability to see my entire attendance from the app. I can view it on the desktop though.

No questions about that, I'm with Zen Planner for a while! They have everything I need and more.

I would have to say that for the most part, the only time we have had to use CS is when we needed to update the board members from year to year. Then we have a new administrator, or "owner" of the platform. We would then need to transfer the email from one person to another. Otherwise, even with billing, there have been no issues. It's flawless and well worth the cost.

Drivn.today is a horrible app/alternative to TeamSnap. Their app is super clumsy and not intuitive whatsoever. TeamSnap's website is nicely organized, and the app is simple and well organized. The app carries almost all the same features as the website, and it is a fully-functional alternative to the website. The alerts and notifications are super helpful.

I have not used any product that are similar to Zen Planner in any way.

• It's a great tool for coaches as they know exactly who can make it to each event
• Its a great way for parents to communicate
• It's nice for the players to see who is on their team and view pictures and results

• Saves me time in using a paper attendance record sheet.
• Payments are automated, no need to request checks or payments from anyone. Emails are sent out if a payment fails.
• I can keep track of 10, 20, 30, or even 50 students using this platform.
