What our customers say | ||
| We at Inferno Races are very satisfied with Datasport. We greatly appreciate the professional and uncomplicated cooperation and collegial way of dealing with each other. It is enormously important for us as organisers to be able to rely on the support needed in the area of time measurement, results service, data management, etc – before and after the race, as is the case with Datasport. After every event there is also a joint debriefing in order to be able to realise potential improvements for the next event. Datasport with its expertise is available to our racing office throughout the year. We look forward to continued good work together. Ueli Stäger, Organising Committee Inferno Races Mürren January 2011 | ||
| The Organising Committee of the Christmas Midnight Run is extremely pleased about the successful cooperation with Datasport during this fantastic race. The Christmas Midnight Run is enormously difficult to organise, because it takes place within a very short time span and the organisers are often confronted with the vagaries of the weather. Despite all the challenges during the evening, we were able to rely on Datasport’s team completely, which handled the registrations and time measurement with absolute professionalism. As a result the race passed off without a hitch. Julien Echenard, Organising Committee Christmas Midnight Run Lausanne December 2010 | ||
| "The Belalp Witch is undoubtedly one of the craziest sporting events in Switzerland. Datasport’s staff is not as crazy. Although when over a metre of new snow has fallen overnight and the crew around Oli is trying to save itself from sinking and shovel the antenna free, one cannot help thinking - they are a little crazy too. But at the latest when it comes down to hundredths of a second in the evening after the skiing race, one notices once again what fantastic work Datasport's staff has put in. And “They’re good guys too - the ones from the time measurement!” Merci!" Roger Michlig, OC Belalp Hexe September 2010 | ||
| “With Datasport I was able to gain experience in two different ways. The first time was in the gymnastics area where I was able to make all of the result evaluations successfully at the 1994 Gymnastics Festival in Büsingen together with Claudio Calasso. The second time was as the person responsible for registration and evaluation in the organising committee of Goldenrace - and this since the first event in 2002. Today we have a professional partner at our side in reporting, including collection, time recording and ranking list compilation. For an organiser it is vital to be able to put one’s trust in a reliable partner, one that can support it with its experience of other events in the organisation. With Datasport at my side and reliable staff I have been able to take on the responsibility for success in preparation and on the race day.” Fredi Stamm, OC EKS Goldenrace September 2010 | ||
| "Once again this year, the Radius Spiezathlon 2010 relied on Datasport for data management and time-keeping. We appreciate Datasport's professional and nonetheless down-to-earth way of doing things. Datasport's service is appreciated not only by us organisers, however: properly functioning time-keeping is very important for the athletes, too. In our networked world, these days it is nearly indispensable that the results of competition can be immediately consulted on the Internet. Particularly in this regard, Datasport sets itself far apart from other providers. The Radius Spiezathlon will also continue to rely on collaboration with Datasport in the future." Markus Streit, OC Chairman, Radius Spiezathlon September 2010 | ||
| "Our thanks go to Datasport for the successful staging of 31st Engadin Summer Run. Apart from the weather and route, the time measurement is certainly one of the most important factors in the success of an event. The cooperation was constructive and friendly from the start. The Datasport team was at all times very helpful and flexible with regard to all of our inquiries, both in the run-up and during the event itself. It was possible to solve problems and questions quickly and professionally. The issue of the start numbers occurred smoothly and calmly and the current figures were always available. We look forward to continuing to have Datasport as a professional partner at our side." Christina Guidon, OC Engadiner Sommerlauf August 2010 | ||
| The Rheinfall Run has been relying on Datasport’s professional time measurement and data management since 2003. It is not just the runners who benefit from this. The Organising Committee can also have recourse to Datasport's infrastructure, which simplifies administration considerably. The flexibility, outstanding service and friendliness of the staff always give us as organisers a very positive feeling. The most important thing of all: the running times have always been correct – there have never been any discussions with participants. Peter Haag, OC Rheinfall Run July 2010 | ||
| “The Lucerne City Run has been profiting from Datasport's professional services since 1998. During these years the number of participants in this running sport festival in Lucerne’s Old Town has more than doubled. At the finish up to 250 arrivals a minute are registered, involving ambitious athletes, small children, families, company groups and groups of friends. The committed Datasport team always has the overall picture in view and rapidly produces individual and team ranking lists for over 38 categories in a professional manner, which are published on the Monday after the event with the results of all participants in the Neue Luzerner Zeitung. An outstanding feat by Datasport, which we have appreciated and admired for years!” Urs Grüter, Manager Lucerne City Run July 2010 | ||
| "Datasport has been taking care of time measurement and registration for the Oberaargau Triathlon for over 13 years now, to our utmost satisfaction. In all this time there has not been the slightest problem and the cooperation with Datasport has always been very positive. Datasport’s professionalism is worth it!" Peter Schärer, CO President Oberaargauer Triathlon July 2010 | ||
| The reliability and professionalism demonstrated by the Datasport team since the first encounter have been impressive. During all of the preparations for the stages of the Tour du Chablais 2010 and during the race itself Datasport has shown itself throughout to be forward-looking, efficient and likeable. Datasport’s qualities have been highlighted by everyone who has encountered it, whether during the races on the spot or in the course of numerous phone calls and e-mail correspondence. This initial experience with high-tech time measurement has turned out to be a complete success, both for the organisers as well as for the approximately 800 runners who took part in the six stages of the Tour du Chablais. Merci to Datasport and… until next year! Alain MICHEL, President committee d'organisation Tour du Chablais July 2010 | ||
| "For the 'Zberg Classic' we naturally rely every year on the professional cooperation of Datasport. I have shared the experience with Datasport at many competitions, whether as competitor or organiser. There have never been any problems and the team has always been helpful. Fantastic, keep up the good work, thank you!" Thomas Saurer, OKP Markus Zberg Charity Classic June 2010 | ||
| In the last 13 iron bike race events datasport’s timing has never faltered. our needs as promoter were met as well as those of the participants. we trust datasport and to this day have never thought of seeking a competing tender. Jeronimo Barahona, President Organising Committee Iron Bike Race May 2010 | ||
| Full service under one roof. It is this core excellence that continues to persuade Ryffel Running to choose Datasport as its partner. This is true both of our traditional events, Swiss Women’s Run Berne, the International Greifensee Run, International Uster Triathlon, Swiss Walking Event and of our latest brainchild, the FISHERMAN’S FRIEND Strongman Run. Benno Kästli, Race Manager Ryffel Running Event GmbH May 2010 | ||
| "The cooperation with Datasport is very good in all areas and extremely satisfactory. Together, we have always found a sound, sensible and adequate solution for every problem. On behalf of the OC of the Lavaux Nordic Walking Event, many thanks." Hansjörg Lanz, Organising Committee Lavaux Nordic Walking Event March 2010 | ||
| "Gsiesertal Valley Run/South Tyrol has been working together with DATASPORT for 8 years now. During this time, we have come to know DATASPORT as an extremely innovative and competent company in the IT sector. We also particularly appreciate the friendly manner of the management board and all employees, who have looked after us so far. Our partner always has an open ear to our needs. We, at the Gsiesertal Valley Run/South Tyrol hope that this cooperation will also be continued in the future for the common benefit of our event." Walter Felderer, Organising Committee Gsiesertal-Lauf March 2010 | ||
| "Cooperation with Datasport has proven to be extremely positive and constructive. What impressed me most was the program with which the athletes' data was entered. It is absolutely vital to be able to produce orderly client records and to have access to the data and results of the individual athletes in recent years at any time. This year the Pustertal Skiing Marathon took place for the 34th time. Time and again athletes ask us if we could provide them with a 30-year old result. However, this is beyond our means, since these result lists only still exist on paper somewhere in an archive. I would like to thank the entire team, and especially Dominik Meier, for the pleasant and very professional cooperation." Kathrin Tschurtschenthaler, Organising Committee Pustertal Skiing Marathon January 2010 | ||
| "The 21st New Year’s Eve Run in Gersau was a great success. It was the first time 679 runners had taken part. A new club 'New Year’s Eve Run Gersau' is responsible for the run and four sports clubs, Männerige, STV Aktive, Frauensportverein SVKT and Veloclub provide the helpers. At the same an agreement on cooperation with Datasport was reached and the experience so far has been excellent. In the preparatory phase we received highly qualified advice and our special wishes were adopted and implemented. We soon noticed that thanks to Datasport new runners had learnt of our event and registered. On New Year’s Eve Datasport’s full professionalism was on display with its assistants, headed by Dominik Meier. Hats off! We experienced first rate cooperation involving the office for issuing starting numbers /late registrations, the speaker-car, those responsible for the ranking lists/prize-giving and press! Highly efficient – for the organiser and runners. Our cooperation premiere, New Year’s Eve Run Gersau – Datasport, was very good – we look forward to its next joint staging on 31 December 2010." Adrian Nigg-Arnold, Organising Committee President Gersau New Year’s Eve Run January 2010 | ||
| "In the past the Boclassic New Year’s Run Bolzano had repeated problems with time-keeping. The cooperation with Datasport for the 35th event was an enormous qualitative improvement. The time-keeping was a complete success, the participants felt a direct emotional involvement as a result of newsletters, lap times and results in SMS form and other services and we got impressive feedback. Your service is striking, your precision exemplary. With Datasport as the permanent partner of our event we can face the future together and develop and expand in many ways." Gerhard Warasin, Organising Committee Deputy Head Boclassic December 2009 | ||
| For over 10 years we have worked together with DATASPORT and we always experience good cooperative. Desires and suggestions are always well received and examined and feasible with only few exceptions. DATASPORT also provides many suggestions for innovations which are very much in line with the runners’ wishes. Pierrette Blösch, Bieler Lauftage, Biel-Bienne July 2009 | ||
| "Our cooperation with Datasport turned out to be a real stroke of luck right from the start. We were convinced not only by Datasport’s precise timing but also above all else by the comprehensive participant management system and the company’s commitment to constantly offer new innovations and customised solutions." Juliane Mathis, "Der weisse Ring", Lech/Zürs July 2009 | ||
| "The cooperation between the Gruyère Cycling Tour and Dataport has existed for many years now. To be specific we have already worked together with the Dataport team for 8 years and we can look forward to the development, the competence and the know how of this company. They are constantly searching for additional services to offer their customers and prove their expertise. We can only encourage organisations to rely on the services of Datasport. Datasport has always compiled with e preferences and the development of Pascal Richard and today those of the Gruyère Cycling Tour." Jean-Pierre Frossard, Gruyère Cycling Tour, Bulle July 2009 | ||
| “We have been in business as organisers for 19 years and staged the previously legendary Garmisch Mountain Bike Classics with about 2,000 participants and since 2000 the Zugspitz Extreme Mountain Run. From the start we were on the lookout for a skilled partner in time management and found what we were looking for in Datasport. At one time we experimented with another time-keeping institution. We were not all that satisfied. The standards, service and reliability brought us back to Datasport. As far as we are concerned, Datasport is ‘state of the art.’” Peter Krinninger, OK Zugspitz Extremberglauf Juli 2009 | ||
| "For nearly 20 years now, Datasport has been a partner of the Powerman Duathlon World Championships Zofingen, first as a timekeeper and in the last few years more and more as a comprehensive service provider in the field of data management. What distinguishes Dataport is its clear professionalism, constant innovation and great reliability. Almost even more important for an organiser such as Powerman: the personal support and flexibility of Datasport. For this reason, Datasport will continue to be an important strategic partner of Powerman Zofingen in the future" Stefan Ruf, President, Powerman Zofingen, Duathlon World Championships March 2009 | ||
| "Since the first time the Jungfrau Marathon was held, we have relied on the dependable and innovative services of Datasport. As organiser of an exclusive marathon on the world's most beautiful marathon course, we are constantly setting new requirements which the Datasport team always accepts openly and competently. As a result, Datasport has become an important pillar of our organisation." Christoph Seiler, OC President, Jungfrau Marathon March 2009 | ||
| "The cooperation between the Birslauf OC and Datasport has been exceptional up to now. The employees are courteous and answer all questions with a lot of patience. The service before, during and after the race is very good." Ruth Tanner, OC President, Birslauf February 2009 | ||
| "The Gurten Classic has worked together with Datasport for over 20 years and thus experienced Datasport in its beginnings. Datasport always had a very strong commitment to developing itself further. They always wanted to be the best and have managed to stay the best. The technology used is always state of the art and is not used until it meets the required standards. The technical tool are designed in such a way that a breakdown is practically impossible. The service, too, is excellent. Contact with the customer representatives is always very pleasant. Assistance is provided very quickly and without difficulty by the entire team. In a word: for a professionally organised event, you also need professional timekeeping which works reliability; here you just can't leave out Dataport." Heinz Vonäsch, OC President, Gurten Classic, January 2009 | ||
"We have worked together with Datasport for 16 years now. As a running and series organiser, we need professional service. Datasport offers very good data processing with innovative ideas, super timekeeping during the event and individual, friendly support event outside of the running season." | ||
| We are able to give the Datasport team top marks for the VAUDE Trans Schwarzwald and the Rothaus RiderMan. In addition to perfect service, the cooperation with Datasport's employees during both events was excellent and even personally more than pleasant. With the usual Swiss calmness and a lot of expert knowledge and professionalism there were no problems whatsoever either during preparation or carrying out of the events on site. It was a great feeling to have Datasport behind us and we're already looking forward to the 2009 season with our partner Datasport! Rik Sauser, Managing Director, Sauser Sport & Event Management GmbH, October 2008 | ||
| "The "Ötztaler" is without a doubt the highlight of the cycling marathon events in Europe and provides its participants with unique experiences with regard to the route, landscape and organisation. These superlatives also apply to registration and timing. In charge of these, Datasport distinguished itself in its first collaboration with us this year. In every respect, Datasport met our expectations - and even exceeded them some times. The professional approach and high quality method of working of our new partner have resulted in the Ötztaler Cycling Marathon once again taking a huge step forward and for such we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks as organisers!" Oliver Schwarz, Manager, Oetztal Tourism, September 2008 | ||
| With its 500-600 participants, the Blüemlisalp-Lauf is a relatively small event and we thought that we could do without professional timing. The previous editions taught us better, however. We chose Datasport for the first time for this year’s edition. The Datasport Company fully convinced us with their entire service from collection to bib number printing, timing and the very advantageous rankings archiving. I can only recommend the professional support beforehand and on race day. Heartfelt thanks go out to the entire Datasport team for the very good job they did - everything went off perfectly! The value for the money completely convinced us (the entire Blüemlisalp-Lauf OC). Martin Rieder, OC, Blüemlisalp-Lauf, Timing, August 2008 | ||
| “At the last Maratona dles Dolomites Datasport once again proved to us how important it is to have a strong timing partner. The Italian participants are very proud and the most important thing for them is receiving the time data they need to complete the course. Incomplete or inaccurate timing is unacceptable for them and we can prevent this thanks to Datasport. The perfect collaboration we've had with Datasport for years also served us well for the live broadcast on Italian television. Thanks to the offers in real time by Datasport, we can guarantee and make available a lot of information to the live broadcast. In this regard, I'd like to take Datasport once again for the great job they did." Claudio Canins, Manager, Maratona dles Dolomites, Corvara (I), July 2008 | ||
| “We have worked together with Datasport since the first edition of the Graubünden Marathon and the Graubünden Walking and we have always been able to count on precise timing and competent support. We’d like to extend special thanks in this respect to Stefan Gautschi who always responds very quickly and dependably to every problem and thus makes our cooperation very pleasant.” Anja Baselgia-Camichel, OC President, Graubünden Marathon/Walking, July 2008 | ||
| “switzerland in motion – Fit for the Euro” was the largest popular sporting event in Switzerland in 2008. The decentralised event at 191 locations posed particular challenges for organisation and logistics. The software developed by Datasport specifically for switzerland in motion rose to these challenges and significantly contributed to making "switzerland in motion" a successful and attractive event. The support from Datasport went way beyond the technical and was invaluable to us. We should also note that despite a large quantity of data and many people involved, there wasn't a single breakdown or complaint. Hats off and thanks! Lorenz Ursprung, Head of Sports Promotion, Federal Department of Defense, Population Protection and Sports VBS, June 2008 | ||
| "The Bremgarter Reusslauf is working together with Datasport for the 8th time already with Datasport. Since our first encounter up to today, we can look back on positive cooperation. Datasport’s on-site support, service and know-how has taken our race further and enhanced it. The runners benefit from first rate timing; a bit has also changed in our race since the introduction of the bar code. We are looking forward once again to the next Bremgarter Reusslauf with Datasport." Stefan Gut, OC President, Bremgarter Reusslauf, April 2008 | ||
“Sportograf.com has earned, in just two years, a reputation as the fastest, most modern and despite very fair pricing a high quality photo service and is appreciated across Europe by organisers and athletes. Since 2007 Sportograf has cooperated with the Datasport Company. | ||
