Good support
It does the business well and responds positively to feedback.

Thanks for the feedback and updates. Great to have such responsive support.
Update: some of our members have not been responding because they don’t realise they have to press the hidden submit button that’s off the bottom of the phone screen. It would be much better if either the yes no buttons worked immediately or the submit button was visible on screen without scrolling.
There seems to be a lot of wasted blank space below the yes no buttons.
And it would be better if the screen moved up when entering notes because the keyboard obscures the place you’re entering text.
Update 2: I created a new event for info only. Later I wanted to change it to have a required response. There seems to be no way of doing this. I did send out an update change and the email title said response required, but the bottom of the email said “no response is requested”. And the “for info“ status of each person did not change to “no reply”.
I ended up going through every member and changing the status manually – very tedious.
Original: First impressions are very good, the learning curve was fairly painless. It would be nice to see which section members are in when looking at the members tab.(Admin). On the web site events page you can drag players into a different section. For us that is really useful as some players are multi instrumental. It would be good if there was the option to send a notification to players when they are moved. Perhaps at the end of moving players into the desired sections for that event. On iPhone 12 mini the app version number is not completely visible in the bottom right of the screen.
On the website, adding the yes no maybe status of players from an earlier system is pretty painful. it would be good to either have an XLS import or less clicks to change each reply status.
on the app , for an admin, it would be good to be able to change the reply status of those few players that don’t use the system or just want to tell me.

Response from developer
Hi "New user" ;) Thanks for your review and useful feedback. To answer your points: 1. Sections in the members tab. We'll take a look at showing the section once the group is selected. 2. Notifications when members are moved. Good idea - we'll look into that. 3. Importing events from a previous system. Also interesting idea. We'd be happy to help if you contact us at info@muzodo.com. 4. Updating responses of other members in the app. This is on the list. The app is mainly focussed on (non-admin) members, getting them event details, notifications and being able to respond. We're working on adding more admin functionality.
Does exactly what we need
Our choir has been using Muzodo for several years, and it does just what we need. Members are reminded if they haven’t filled in their availability, forthcoming rehearsals sync with calendar apps…
Chris is prompt to reply to requests and questions, too.
One star deducted because the interface is a little awkwardly designed.
But I’d definitely recommend this app to anyone in charge of administering a large group of musicians.

Very useful tool
This is a time saver. No more paper checklists or doodles. Easy software to use and manage, plus they’re constantly adding new features based on user recommendations. Thanks Muzodo!
VTB loves Muzodo
47 musicians who are spread out over several bands in different communities - what could go wrong?
As a concert band that holds a rehearsal once every 2 years or so to look over new music, but gets together regularly to perform at rural area events, without Muzodo we would be hooped.
It works thusly - I send out a notice with a date and timing, hoping to be able to provide a 25 piece band that is well balanced.
Muzodo tracks my musicians and determines other groups that are committed to perform on that date.
I now know the musicians, and instrumentation I have available.

Fantastic Tool
Muzodo is a fantastic scheduling tool that enables us to effectively tell organisers if we are able to accept or decline a job or even if we need to pull in deps as well. Really simple to use, developers are very responsive should you need anything.
Does the job
I have used Muzodo with 3 different bands so far. I find it easy to use on the whole although getting the app to work on my iphone took a bit of fiddling to set up, now it’s set up, it is very easy to keep track of things with both the bands I play in appearing in the same app.

Excellent Band Scheduler
I have been using Muzodo for about 4 years as an administrator to help me run 2 bands having up to 20 players. It has been far easier than the loads of Emails and phone calls I used to have to make to get players and deps to rehearsals and gigs. Each player and dep is happy to have this as an app on their phone. I find that they are often using it for other bands they play in. Chris the developer always listens to queries and suggestions for improvement and changes it when justified. All round it’s excellent.

Love it!
Great app. Love everything about it
Titch
Just finished using this app for the first year and it has been really useful. You can check who is available which is really good it then gives us time to sort if deps are needed.
I’m not sure how it works when you are connected to two bands as I get a different format, perhaps that’s how the admin has set it up but if it is workable in the same format for more than one band I’d say it’s a no brainier. Well satisfied.

Great App
Really useful, can see at an instant who’s available and if there’s any gaps in the band that need filling or if we have too many in one section. Great App, we’ll done
Great app
Really great way for our community choir to share info on gigs and keep track of who’s able to attend. I love the automatic reminders and being able to let the organisers know not only if I can attend but if not why not
Best band app ever
Perfect app for bands to coordinate player’s attendance and give out event details.
Fantastic resource!
After many many years of being fixed via mobile phone or email this resource is brilliant as a place to sort out dates in the diary and different needs ( say for lifts or dress codes ) the alternative google spreadsheet was ok but there was no way to delete it from one’s g drive without it mysteriously turning up again years later ( not so good when fixing funeral choirs…). And recent changes to doodlepole similarly couldn’t cope with voting for which day to run the concert or rehearsals on. All of this is solved by Muzodo ( Ie a do fixed by and for Muzos…) and is a handy external to diary resource to see what’s coming up and who’s been invited /coming. I’m impressed and enjoying how easy it is to find information regarding each gig without having to wade through endless emails from the same originating organisers.

Muzodo is easy to use
I’m in multiple bands that use this app. It’s easy to install, use & to maintain the band roster!
Even our most technologically challenged members are able to use it.
I particularly appreciate being able to see who is attending each gig at a glance, by section/instrument.

Convenient band management tool
I have faithfully been using Muzodo’s service, including, this app, for 5+ years. The service has greatly simplified my role as band manager. This app is a great tool to tie into the service while “on the road” at rehearsal or a performance.
Brilliant useful app.
We use Muzodo for my choir and Band and it is slick, efficient and incredibly useful. Both managers and members find it invaluable and wonder how we managed before. Use it correctly and intelligently and be amazed. We love it.
Works great and helps the group
I’m a member of the group, so no admin perspective, but this is a great app. Does everything you need to show up at the right place at the right time with the right gear and know who else will be there. I’m running on iPhone with iOS 16.2 with no problems. Website works well too.
