Go to Post What I’m trying to say is that you should not necessarily be looking to build the next “cool” thing, unless that’s your team’s goal and you’ve got the resources to finish it by ship date. - Bill Gold [more]

Re: Nventivity Digital Scouting System now available!

That is an impressive system. As noted in previous posts, the $120 price tag is a bit steep.

I'll have to see if we can fit the expense into the team budget.

What about long term support? Will you be charging for firmware upgrades in '09, '10, and later?

If I can make a case for using this platform 3 or 4 years out, I might be able to justify the initial investment.

Re: Nventivity Digital Scouting System now available!

Yes I agree it is expensive, but it will last years and the updates are free for the following years. For us it pays in the information it provides for us about teams. I guess you have to ask yourself how important is it to you. maybe teams get go in on this together and share the data?

Re: Nventivity Digital Scouting System now available!

I'll see if I can sell it to my team. The kids will like the videogame interface.

Although I'll never be able to figure it out . Too old for that kind of thing.
