Bandize: A Tool for Band Management

Posted on by

Not able to post anything thorough today, but i want to make you all aware of something a friend passed on a few days ago. It’s a new band management tool called Bandize. It’ll be introduced at this years South By Southwest and it’s extremely appropriate for the readers of Grassrootsy. Here’s a great introduction: Bandize: Manager Your Band Like a Business

I’ll do some more reading up on it in the next few months and likely post an in-depth review or “analysis”. In the meantime, here are some past reviews on other notable resource. Read up!

Oh, and in a matter or weeks, I’ll begin guest-blogging for Artist Data.

    a few hours of this posting this, BandCentral began following me on twitter. Check them out. They’ve been around longer and they’re cheaper: http://www.bandcentral.com. They’re based in the UK.

    Marcatomusician provides the same tools and more for free for single band accounts. Cheaper than Bandcentral and Bandize and growing fast. The current offering is free forever.

    MarcatoDigital’s website says $20/mo. How is that cheaper? http://marcatoapp.com/web/musician.php All of these look cool though. Thanks for the info.

    FYI, I have been test driving bandize vs bandcentral and I had the following email exchange with their customer support:

    Doug,

    To be perfectly honest, while we do have plans to revamp Bandize and make it the service it always should have been, right now it might be a better idea to go with bandcentral.

    Thanks

    Not to be a jerk, but I have a serious question I would like your input on.
    bandcentral is your obvious competition and I am exploring both your service and theirs before settling on one.
    Why should I sign up for Bandize over bandcentral?
    Respectfully,
