Question New to Scouting

Coming from VEX, FRC continues to blow me away in the sophistication. There are a lot of fundamental similarities, but it's a joke compared to FIRST. Scouting in VEX for my team, was a clipboard and running around to all the teams we were signed up to be in an alliance with. Cutting to the chase, I am interested in methods of scouting. I know there's field and pit scouting, etc. Our team only has two people scouting, but we could pull more people with there thumbs in there asses from the build subteam. I'm curious what methods you guys have used, whether it be:
Paper:
if so, how, and how did you organize all of the teams?
or,
Electronic:
if so, what data transfer protocol, how would you communicate it to the driver station before a match during defense selection (i.e wondering what defenses team xxxx can't travel over), and how would you do it? We'd have between two and five laptops, my iPad Air 2 (with Verizon SIM), and a variety of android smartphones. I'm more-so interested in doing electronic, so how would you recommend going about it, and I understand if you don't wish to share everything with me like a download to an already made apk set up for FRC Stronghold, but any help and ways to get started would be vastly appreciated.



Cheers!
(note, we have two people in our scouting subteam, but could probably pull from build and programming/electrical at competition)
