Give your fans truly LIVE Results 

Swimcloud Meet Manager offers a live scoreboard that lets your fans follow every start, every split, and every finish in real-time. And because it's connected to the cloud you'll see real-time analysis including team scores, best times, improvement, and more.  Click here to learn more.

 

Live Results with Hy-Tek Meet Manager

You can set up free Live Results if you have Hy-Tek Meet Manager's Pro Option.  The benefits of this include:

  • Easy to read results - Swimcloud makes the Hy-Tek results look better and presents them to fans in a way that is more engaging and easier to read than Meet Mobile.
  • Available Everywhere - Results are optimized for multiple platforms, desktop, mobile, and different operating systems.
  • Easy To Find - No need to search by date, location, or meet type.  Your meet will go to the top of our College, Club, or High School Pages.
  • Permanently Archived - This eliminates the need to overwrite your old results.  Each meet has its own link.
  • Simple Set-Up - Bypass your IT department, firewalls, and hassles.  Everything's set up.
  • Flexible - Already have your own live results link?  That's cool, you can use that too.
