LeagueApps Review
Comments: Overall, we have had a great experience and the staff has done their best to assist us as much as they can when the software has been lacking. Do your homework and ask specific questions that pertain to your business, so you know if this is the right switch for you.
Pros:
I love that this software has an app that parents can use that links with our system. This allows for easier communication of schedules. It also has a well thought out registration system and communication system (e mail and text messages). Their set up team and customer support were great to work with as well. It is a great system to keep your registration, teams, and billing all in one platform.
Cons:
Once we had already switched over to the software we found a lot of things the software could NOT do, that we were told it could. It didn't work out as well for our business as we had hoped it would, which in turn made our lives a lot more complicated. The system was created to cover a broad range of things, and it doesn't get very specific into any one of those things. We needed specifics, and this is where it began to not work as well for us.
It not working with Android products!!
Comments: Poor... Last season there glitches since updating I am left in the dark and have to ask the coach to send me notifications via text separately. Which is ridiculous!!
Pros:
The concept is great... works for Apple works... but some folks choose Android
Cons:
It is not compatible with android devices. Since comparing to Apple users I don't have the home icon,I don't have the month calendar, I often have to restart it or even uninstall it to get the messages it would load hyperlinks ! Its embarrassing.
Alternatives Considered:
Found a home...
Comments: I think the customer service goes above and beyond! I truly have a team that works with me, supports me and answers any questions I may have. Our website is exactly what we dreamed of and continues to grow with us. Great company, great people and great product!
Pros:
The software is so easy to navigate. I am not tech savvy and I was able to figure things out within a couple of days of our launch!
Cons:
Games... putting in games. Still trying to figure out how to put in games with teams that are not registered teams on my site.
Love it, but need facility management tool
Comments: Our overall experience has been incredible with LeagueApps.
Pros:
I love the comprehensiveness and integration of the features
Cons:
I don't understand the membership feature and I need the facility management features
The right partner for growth
Comments: Overall I was very impressed. The level of customer service and personal attention was top notch. The customer support teams provided weekly and routine access to fully understand our needs and our goals. I consider them all to be valuable business partners.
Pros:
The ability to quickly develop and implement a customized registration system to support our unique needs. With thousands of teams, players, leagues/divisions, LeagueApps was able to deliver a product that was efficient and functional from the start. As improvements were identified, the we were able to tweak the program to allow make the process smoother. On the website development side, the amount of collaboration and partnership was amazing. Together, the team and LeagueApps helped us envision and create a best in class website.
Cons:
Data mining can be an issue. Consistency in the database an access to various levels of data can be improved. I am confident these issue will be addressed and LeagueApps will continue to grow and evolve along with our businesses.
Best Club Platform for the Professional Club Administrator.
Comments: Payment side is very good. Communications and player management, while encompassing and robust, could be a bit more intuitive.
Pros:
Player registrations are simple and straight forward.
Cons:
Platform is both complicated and robust. As such, a greater online FAQ section would be appreciated to remember processes that are used infrequently.
Excellent software to manage business operations
Comments: Allowed the business to bring most of the product offerings within one operating system.
Pros:
The ability to quickly add new programs and very effectively manage the components of our business. Was very easy to integrate into our business at first and eventually with any new product offerings.
Cons:
Initially the lack of a mobile app. That issue has been solved and continues to improve for ease of user acceptance.
LOVE this program & the employees
Comments: I run an Adult Soccer League and LeagueApps has been a life & time saver for me! I would recommend them hands down. We have over 700 players and need to be able to stay on top of my game, LeagueApps maked this happen. My players LOVE the ease of registration as well as payment process. I love that I can track it easily. The financial reports, invoices, discount codes, etc are Awesome. I have been using LeagueApps for almost 2 years now and I have had to call them a few times. Every call has been a pleasant experience and my issue resolved the same day. The app is very user friendly, the employees are friendly and I can not say enough positive things about the entire program and employees! I would use them again if I was starting over!
Pros:
Easy to use, Instant up to date info
Cons:
After 2 years of using...havent found anything I can say negatively!

DM Review
Pros:
The usability and integration across multiple teams is second to none. I love how teams can pay their dues, check on status of games, order supplies.
Cons:
Sometimes it clunky and gets bogged down
Overall great software for club programming
Pros:
LeagueApps software is very user friendly. Has a great communication tool when it comes to messaging.
Cons:
Would love if the software could have a better way of making it easier to book lessons and keep track of credits when clients purchase lesson packages. Have to use a different software for that.
League Apps
Pros:
Ease and functionality of software makes working with it much easier than most other platforms
Cons:
I haven't found too much that I can say is a "con" about LA thus far.
My kind of people
Comments: Amazing group of people throughout the company that have been a true joy to work with
Pros:
Streamlined the operation of our club of 700+ members.
Cons:
The apps functionality which I am aware the team are working on making it the best in the market
League Apps has changed my life!
Comments:
I am the Director of Operations for a National Travel Team and until being introduced to League Apps, I was running our organization manually, what I believe I would now refer to as "the dark ages" and have now entered the "21st Century"!
The process of setting up my registration system was a detailed but a quite simple process and my Launch Coach, Stephanie could not have made the process more pleasurable. Stephanie was not only knowledgable and informative, but her ability to instruct me with patience was quite remarkable. We set up calls and Stephanie was able to access my computer through screen sharing and it was as if she were sitting next to me during my lessons.
I am now able to manage registrations for over 80 families from all over the country, as well as manage the accounts receivables with a touch of a button. I use League Apps for e mail communication as well as texting my players and families with updates. As well, we now have an on line gear store which will absolutely make my ordering of uniforms and additional gear for our players and families simple. I am even able to manage my organization through my smart phone as well as my computer, so even when I am "on the go" I have easy access.
Most importantly, I have had a very positive response from my families, and for that, I know that I made the right decision. It was an investment in my company that was well-spent. I would highly recommend using League Apps for any organized sports organization, whether you are a National Travel Organization like mine, or a Local Town Club Team.
So Cal National Travel Team is now League Apps #1 FAN! Thank you!!!!
LeagueApps is fantastic!
Comments: We could not be happier with LeagueApps and the LA staff!
Pros:
LA is easy for our customers to use and easy on the backend for our administrative staff.
Cons:
I honestly do not have any "cons" regarding our implementation of LA.
HUGE step in the RIGHT direction
Comments: I LOVE the customer service hospitality that is constantly displayed by the staff. Their positive energy is infectious!! They are always willing and eager to assist their customers with any issues that may be encountered. It's also great that the company is focused on consistently developing their software.
Pros:
I was originally using a competitor's software for general business operations. The feature that stood out to me for LeagueApps was the fact that customers may link their bank account to the platform for automatic payment deductions if they are paying for our services via installments. This allows our company to ensure that we are constantly receiving the payments that are owed to us in a timely manner.
Cons:
Resizing images is simple with this software however I wish that I wouldn't have to use a third-party in order to complete this task.
Run from League Apps!!
Comments:
I run a youth little league baseball and softball program, ages 4 to 12 years old. I looked into using League Apps and after compairing league apps to the many other sports managment software out there, I found league apps to provide the least amount. Leaqgue Apps compaired to the other sports managment software looks to be very non profesional. I found all of the diferent brands of software to cost about the same when you add in all of the extra cost, but league apps had very little to offer. After compairing all of the different brands I went with Jevin Sports Managment Software and I am verry happy that I did. When I read the League Apps customer feed back from League Apps costomers I find that every complaint their customers have would be fixed if they changed and went to Jevin. Here is the website for Jevin; http://www.jevin.net/
I talked with League Apps and looked into using league apps in early spring. Now over 6 months later League Apps will not quite spaming my email box. I have told them that I went with Jevin sports managment software, I have also nicly asked league apps to leavue me alone. I have emailed them and asked them to remove my from their email list, I have taked with them and asked them nicely to quit contacting me and they still email me several times a week asking for me to sign up with league apps software. Do your self a favor and run from league apps. Try Jevin sports managment software, you and your players will be glade you did.
Life Made Easier!
Comments: My husband and I volunteer together to run the Police Athletic League program and registration was always a nightmare! From the start -- the introduction demo call LeagueApps customer service was impressive! Our coach Stephanie was patient and helpful while she walked me through the steps to create our program site. The coaching calls were very productive and extremely helpful. Stephanie diligently worked to address problems, answer my questions, and promptly respond to my email questions before our next scheduled coaching call. She was very helpful with offering suggestions and solutions that would best fit with how we wanted to organize our registration and program information. While the member side of the site is very easy to use for our parents and provides a more polished online presence; the managerial side takes a little bit more time to learn to navigate (mostly because it is packed with A BUNCH of options to ensure that your program runs smoothly) and that is why I only gave it three stars for "Ease of Use". But like I said, Stephanie was GREAT with assisting us with not only the set up process but she checked in with us after we were up and running to see if we had and questions or needed help. LeagueApps and Stephanie helped our organization create a personalized, professional site presence while also saving my marriage!
Phenomenal!
Comments: I run a Parks and Rec Dept and have been using this system on a daily basis for two rounds of registrations. It requires some time to learn the nuances but overall it has been a great move for our dept. Just started using the RSVP feature and waiting on feedback to see how well it works. Customer service is second to none!
Pros:
Ease of use
Cons:
Takes time to learn, could use a calendar for the programs not just a schedule for games and events.
Great team motivated to make my new site everything I wanted and more. Quick responses.
Pros:
I love the ease of setting up pages, posts, events, etc. through the divibuilder. The program is written in a way where it really simplifies the process for the user and makes website setup efficient and effective. When I did have a question the guys working with me were incredibly quick to get me an answer or find it if they did not know it. I would highly recommend coming to LeagueApps and giving it a shot.
Cons:
I am working through the roster functionality currently and it's a little more difficult to set up that on previous sites. However, I think that once I learn how to do it the site will look better and will allow me to do more with less time.
Use LeagueApps for everything!
Comments: I've realized how much this app helps us stay organized. It has minimized errors.
Pros:
We are able to use it for everything! Registration, website, it's user friendly, and we use it for all of our sports.
Cons:
This software is exceptional. I can't think of any area that it is lacking. As I said before, we use it for everything.
Fantastic System!
Comments: League Apps has gone above and beyond for what we need. As a University Club Sports Department, our use of the system is different than what it was originally created for (city rec leagues) but they've worked with us to create solutions to match our unique needs. The work they did to integrate the League Apps side of the website to match our University's has been fantastic. The best part of League Apps is the fact that they're ever changing, and willing to adapt to the needs of their users. They're continuing to match the list of needs I have to make the system work for a University Club Sports Department. The only con that I have was that I had been bounced around to different reps a couple times. In each situation I have to re-explain the unique situation and get them lined up with the specifics. BUT each time I've done so the reps have caught on very quickly and answered my questions and provided solutions in a timely manner. I would and have recommended League Apps to any Sports Coordinator.
The League Apps Team and Software
Comments: Let me start by saying I have never designed or developed a website before. I have a full time job and do this as a volunteer for a non-profit organization. My salesman from LeagueApps was patient, helpful, and very excited to help my organization develop a website to meet all our needs. Once I started playing around with the tools it was very easy to layout the site and it was fun to create something to help my organization. The software is very user friendly. Honestly i'm a law enforcement officer who doesn't use a computer all day long like most people, so if I can design a site that looks and functions great anyone can do it. If your on the fence about whether or not LeagueApps is for you my advice is contact them and talk to them about your needs and let them show you what they can do for you and your organization. You will not regret it!
LeagueApps is awesome!
Comments: I have been involved with the sports industry for the better part of twenty years and LeagueApps is exactly what I've been looking for. The software is easy to use and to understand. The LeagueApps team is patient, professional and extremely friendly. Stephanie Vera and her colleague, Emily Mumford, are the best. They take as much time as needed to explain everything to you and go out of their way to make sure you are satisfied as their customer. It truly is a team effort. In addition, the software allows me to collect important data, it helps tremendously with organization of teams, leagues, tournaments, etc and it is user friendly for my customers to register for all of our services. Thank you LeagueApps for everything you do! You have a very satisfied customer!
Like what I can do with images of our players. That was extremely limited with our previous provider
Pros:
I really like that I can easily manipulate images and have them be the size that I want. With our previous provider, I was limited to what was available within the page template, so I ended up with a lot of small images of our players. That's a huge selling point for me in favor of LeagueApps.
Cons:
I'd like to see a calendar feature, where I could highlight an upcoming event right on the front page.
