At Daten Bridge Club we use the Jeff Smith program. This is free and we are quite happy with it. It is possible to score a 7 table event in around 10 minutes and print out the results. The main time consuming bit is entering player names. This is done by 'clicking and dropping' from a list of members. It may be better if each person had a 'default partner' to speed this up a little. Navigating the site can be a bit slow, but, these are minor criticisms. A major plus is that it is easy to contact Jeff by e-mail if problems arise. Also, we have some movements that seem unique to us which it has been very easy to add to those provided.
Which program do you use? Tell us about its advantages or disadvantages. I'd be really interested to hear from anyone using Bridgemate or similar for instant scoring. E-mail or put your comments at the end of this post.

At Stamford Bridge Club we use Stephen Bligh's Scorebridge. We find it excellent and very user friendly. After evaluating several programs about five years ago, I recommended Scorebridge to the Club and we have never regretted it. It has been enhanced considerably in that time and Stephen has been most helpful as things have developed.
We purchased Bridgemates in November last year and no longer use travellers. We have results out in minutes after the last board is finished, and on a number of occasions have been the first to post results on the Ecats site in simultaneous events.
Using Scorebridge we can post our results on our own website about five minutes after the last board is completed. The web pages are prepared automatically by Scorebridge. You can see them on our website stamfordbridgeclub.co.uk.
Salliere scores, matchpoints and nicely formats the boards for a duplicatepairs evening. It has a command line interface and a GUI.
