SmartChess!

SmartChess! offers a platform of products for players to improve their chess playing skills in an economical and smart way. In practice that means solving a specific business problem with software.

It makes the most sense for teams in its space. Alongside the main category they mention Education and Gaming. As a very small product team themselves (1 to 10 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

SmartChess! is based in Mesa, Arizona. Their site is playsmartchess.com.

Our checklist for this category: pricing, support, and how it fits with the tools you already use. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with SmartChess!, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
