A CHALLONGE ALTERNATIVE
Challonge is great when all you need is a quick bracket. Scored is for running the actual day — multi-court scheduling, live referee scoring, public pages every team can follow, and a scoreboard that goes on your broadcast.

You're running a real event — multiple courts, referees, teams to keep informed, and ideally a live stream — not just publishing a bracket.
You need a single bracket online in a couple of minutes for a casual or online competition, and don't need scheduling, live scoring or a broadcast.
