FIRST website is an embarasment

Greetings,

I cannot tell you the level of frustration in dealing with our new website. I am about to quit FIRST due the summation of all the frustrations I have dealing with this horrible website. I am wits end.

Not only has it been a nightmare for registration for events, nor for trying to get people signed up, nor trying to find things, nor trying to navigate through it, but as a coach, it gets worse.

You cannot organize your team roster, export it to excel, and copy&paste it easy. Plus when new people sign up, they are randomly placed in the current roster making it very time consuming double checking each student. It might not be a problem with 10 students, but 50 it's very time consuming.

And then when you sort on "applied" students, you cannot accept them without going back to the full roster and scrolling through everything again.

Then trying to have people sign up in VIMS, especially if they are not computer savvy is a horror story.

It really is an embarrassment when you think people in robotics should be good at computers. Thank you for hearing my rant. It helps. I think.

GIVE US BACK OUR OLD SYSTEM!
