We have had this bilingual (English/French) website up and running and would appreciate any feedback.

Our main concern is that visitors understand what our web application does and encourage them to request a trial subscription.

Thank you in advance for any comments/recommendations

Default site ok BUT

My immediate concern was privacy. Whats to keep this potentially sensitive data safe? You did not convince me immidiately that my competitors were not going to get their hands on my data. So I stopped looking.
How about a version to run on my club server where the security is less of a concern.

I saw a bottom of the page reference to the athlete updating details. How do you deal with the athlete being overly optimistic about performance/recovery from injury. Filling in bad 'reviews' about yourself (as an athlete) will hurt your career, so you are just not going to do it.

There is a suggestion that this is a communication method. If you need a system to communicate in a team, its not much of a team (and you the coach are not much of a communicator). Perhaps you should rephrase to something like "additional info for better/clearer communication". Coaches should be potential buyers, but recommending this product to their bosses is going to make them sound like they cannot manage their jobs.

I wish you the best of luck with your product, but I would not buy it. Try it in shrink wrapped form for the coach to buy privately, and add a way for the coach to print out forms/questioaires to carry to the
training, so he can capture data at home in secret, for his own private analysis. Perhaps once he can show the club-board that the improvements in the team were related to the system/ better player analysis, he can make a case for buying the 'full' product.

Does the system atytempt to identify performance cycles in a player? because thats something thats pretty hard for a human to track with out machine assistance. And I think that most boards would accept that argument without holding it against the coach.

I think your product will be seen as a threat to both the coach and the athlete, and that perception needs to be changed, from "threats" to "allies"

again good luck, I think you need it.

Default Thank you for your advices

Dear RicInACloak

Thank you for your review. As you have rightly pointed out, a big concern of pro teams is data confidentiality. We will try to resolve this issue by offering an Intranet version and improve our communication about the security measures we took.

Thank you again

François
