| Comparison area | Stats Beaver Coach-controlled analytics | Automated video analytics Camera-derived analytics |
|---|---|---|
| Rink coverage | Works at any rink. | May depend on a supported venue, camera system, or compatible recording. |
| Game footage | Use Stats Beaver while reviewing footage from any camera system or personal recording—or track without video. | Requires usable footage in a format the platform can process. |
| Player identification | Team staff identify players using their knowledge of the roster. | Software must infer player identities from the footage, and those identifications may not always be accurate. |
| Footage quality | Team staff can combine what they see with roster knowledge and game context. | Low light, poor camera angles, blocked views, motion blur, and obscured jersey numbers can reduce detection accuracy. |
| Review and correction | Every recorded event is visible and editable by authorized team staff. | Review and correction options depend on the provider. |
| Availability | Insights update live or whenever events are entered. | Video processing may take up to 24 hours; insights are generally available once that process is complete. |
| Cost | Start with a Free team site; paid Plus and Pro upgrades use straightforward annual pricing. | Can be a significant team expense when pricing includes cameras or other hardware, installation, subscriptions, and per-game processing. |
| Tradeoff | Someone records the events the team chooses to track, keeping the data transparent and correctable. | Less manual entry, but the team depends on what the footage and system can detect. |
Common questions
What coaches usually want to know.
Do we have to track every shot?
No. Start with goals and the players on the ice if scoring trends and line performance are your priority. Add shot locations when you want shot maps and quality analysis.
Does game data have to be entered live?
No. Track at the rink, even without an internet connection, or enter events later while reviewing video, notes, or a scoresheet.
What is included with a Free team site?
Free includes a private team workspace with roster and player pages, schedules, results, boxscores, core statistics, game tracking, and site management. Eligible Free sites may display Stats Beaver-served advertising.
Can coaches save video clips?
On eligible Pro sites, authorized coaches can load local video, save selected clips or frames, add captions and annotations, and revisit them with the game review.
Can other coaches and trainers join?
Yes. Site owners can invite approved accounts and assign access based on the site's active plan.
Does it work like an app?
Yes. Compatible phones and browsers can install the team site as a web app, or use it directly in a browser on phone, tablet, or desktop.
