Same here, the iPads we use actually streamline everything a ton. Before, someone had to manually enter 1 sheet of paper per robot per match into our scouting database, and even with quick typists it was a tedious and error prone job. Now, as soon as the match ends, data enters the database immediately, where it can be viewed right away by scouts, drivers, and anyone else who might need it.
