Snap Audition Reviews & Insights

My organization has used Snap Audition for the first time for our limited round of December auditions. We are considering using it for our large round of spring auditions now as well (~1000 students). Three months ago, Snap Audition did not have the functionality to work for my organization in the way we needed it to, but in the time since then the Snap team has worked with me directly to add all kinds of functionality that we needed. There are still elements that will need to be added or tweaked for an audition round as large as we have, but I trust that the team will be able to take care of it. One thing to know is that every aspect of Snap Audition must be tested thoroughly before bringing it to the public/judges to know that there aren't any bugs that might occur. The admin interface is not the most user-friendly but easy enough to learn once you've spent some time with it. This product is definitely worth it especially for medium and small sized organizations.

For small to medium sized arts organizations, all state music auditions, in-school auditions, etc. I see Snap Audtion working very well. When an org needs a high level of specificity it can be a little difficult to make Snap Audition work exactly as you need it, but the team is very responsive.

I was a volunteer judge and was invited to use Snap I found the platform rather easy to navigate through student recordings and provide feedback. It was much more streamlined then using something like a shared folder and having to download multiple files. Quality of the media files was good and loaded easily. It was easy to type in feedback and move from one audition to the next.

It was an easily navigable experience to get audition materials and provide feedback.

We are a non-profit arts organization looking for a software that was both affordable and could handle audition materials, form information, and payment. We were very excited to find Snap Audition and have used it since. It is amazing!

Where Snap Audition has room for growth, it makes up for it in the level of high quality service and response to feedback, from our experience.

I used Snap to judge all state music auditions. It helps simplify and streamline the process between multiple adjudicators and creates a simple platform for students to upload performance videos.

I previously mentioned the scoring system. I would like to be able to use decimals and have multiple categories to score (for percussion, for example, a separate score for timpani, keys, and snare drum, in addition to a total score). I also suspect that some of the videos didn't load because students uploaded the wrong format, so more accepted formats might be helpful. I had some that would freeze halfway through the video, so it clearly wasn't a format issue.
