Can not recommend the scoreboard or Swimnerd enough!! Getting the scoreboard set up was far easier than I expected. We were up and running fairly quickly once delivered with no headaches. Nate communicated with me throughout the process from purchase to shipping and delivery. It connected cleanly and was ready for meet day without a long list of workarounds.
Using it during a meet is just as simple. It's intuitive enough that volunteers and staff can monitor it confidently without much training, which matters when you're juggling everything else that happens on deck.
The software is another strength. It's clean, logical, and easy to work with. It connect with our Colorado System 6 and meet manager right away. The template editor is especially good. I've built custom screens for our program, including our annual Blue vs Gold meet layout and a welcome screen, and the editor made it easy to get the look we wanted without fighting the tool. Being able to use logos, branding and custom images was very simple. The screen can also function as a TV if you wanted to replay any video recordings, races, or just stream another team who may be playing.
I think what really sets Swimnerd apart is the customer service, and especially working with Nate. He was responsive, patient, and clearly invested in making sure we were successful. Whenever I had a question, he was quick to help and took the time to explain things rather than just giving a quick fix. It felt like working with a partner, not a vendor.
If you're looking for a scoreboard system that's easy to set up, easy to run, and supported by someone who actually cares about the products and swimming as a whole, I'd highly recommend Swimnerd!

The Tuesday before our weekend-long swim conference, plans for streaming the event fell through. Some desperate googling and Gemini-ing lead me to Swimnerd. The were cool, calm, and collected, and told me they would help us get back on track for the weekend. They kept their word. Friday during set up, we were having some trouble getting the swimnerd software to communicate with our timing system and they were super-responsive via text. Everything was up and running for Saturday morning. Great crew, great product, highly recommended.

It was a fantastic experience. We used them in the competition, and everything went perfectly
I thoroughly enjoyed working with Swimnerd; their service was impeccable, and I would recommend them to my friends.

We wanted a pace clock that was Big. Bright. Easy to see. Quality. Reliable. Swimnerd had one, so we took a chance. Nate’s word is good. He is honest and has integrity. The Swimnerd Pace Clock is as advertised. I don’t remember the year we bought it for the pool, but it is still running. It does what our swimmers want. It never gets turned off. It just keeps going. In our disposable society, it’s nice to see a product that has quality together with features that are designed well… user friendly, easily stand out when compared to other products.

Fast response, Fast turn around, Arrived quick. Works as well as any pace clock would! Was responsive to an inquiry as well.

Would highly recommend

We had our first clock damaged during some recent construction here at the pool, and we are thrilled to have our second one.
Thanks Nate and team!
