What book do you feel has the best software these days?

[Reload]

Have seen a few books changing things around in the past year. Heading into 2010, what books do you feel have the best software now?

[dark star]

Definately not Carib or Bet 911;I like Bookmaker,Greek,Heritage & 5Dimes formats.

[mminkovski]

pinnacle - dynamic lines

[Dunder]

US facing books are still light years behind the Euro books in this respect.

Of the US facing books, I like The Greek mainly because of the quick search.

[pjesnik24]

bwin has the best software

[durito]

dimeline

[RickySteve]

Best: ABC

Worst: JustBet

[Reload]

Definately not Carib or Bet 911;I like Bookmaker,Greek,Heritage & 5Dimes formats.

I have always liked 5Dimes software. Lots there but still easy to find what you want, as well as bet quickly.

[BubbleBobble]

Don't know, but the most useful for me is Pinny dynamics by a landslide.

[flyingillini]

Heritage, always ahead of the times.

[jjgold]

Wagerstreet is the best
Greek is ok

Both have no timeouts

[smitch124]

I actually like Wagerstreet's software, might be the only one

[pjesnik24]

Don't know, but the most useful for me is Pinny dynamics by a landslide.

if you like pinnacle dynamic lines then you should check 188bet, sbobet, 12bet etc

[jjgold]

I know betting software better than anyone here

Wagerstreet is the best and for years

[mr. leisure]

I like 5-dimes

[8550937]

[flyingillini]

Paddypower, represent!

[durito]

I know betting software better than anyone here

Wagerstreet is the best and for years

try and place a teaser bet

[BurtRapp]

Wagerstreet is the best by far!!

[yobinad]

I like Bet365

[UV82]

The best US book can beat the worst European book in the quality of software.

As a software engineer who has been invovlved in development of many software packages and can appreciate good technology when I see one... my view is that: Bwin & Bet365 have by far the best software... (not the best books but best technology)

[Chopsticks]

It would have to be bet365 and some other euro bookies. I have always been pussled as to why there is such a huge difference between euro bookies and offshore bookies.

The sportsinteraction site is pretty good though.

[smitch124]

wow there are others who like wagerstreet, I'm surprised

[TWEETS]

Haven't played there in a while, but BetEd does have some nice software. Real easy to switch between sports and put in multiple bets at the same time.

[tomcowley]

I wouldn't rate any major us-facing book as anything less than horrible. Carib gets the golf ball through the garden hose award for the worst suckage though. Justbet takes normal crappy ASI and makes it worse with stupid popups. Greek is abysmal for betting more than 1 team at a time. Most software is either horrible at displaying multiple things at once (pinny, greek, 5d, SIA), or showing you far more than you want to see (Phoenix, want to look at 1h, you get Game too). I'd rate Cris as C-, since you can selectively display exactly what you want and buy points without going through convoluted stupidity, but in addition to some smaller complaints, it has the EXTREMELY annoying "feature" that it doesn't refresh the bet categories properly. If you're doing something else (or not logged in), and a second half, or in-progress line comes up, it can take forever to display. It doesn't matter how many times you refresh-it just won't show up on your screen.. while it shows up for other people the whole time.

The original Phoenix software had the good parts of Cris, and the betslip functionality which can be useful for multi-team bets, but it was littered with retarded popups, and it didn't check for line availability at the right time, so you could jump through hoops getting a bet ready once the line was already gone. And the way bets got off the slip after betting was bad too. It's the closest any US book has come to even trying though.

[jjgold]

Jamaica is ok, BoDOG and SIA are also pretty good

Most use the same basic stuff though

[Doug]

matchbook

[zorze]

Yes most european books have the more advanced software from americans and asians

[trumpdown]

matchbook

It sure would be nice not to have 4 or more windows open at the same time. Especially in-play, MB could definitely make adjustments.

[cap10]

bet365;; its not even close

[UV82]

bet365;; its not even close

Not even close to what ? The Greek ?

BTW can anyone even remotely compare Betfair to Matchbook (sftware wise)?

[JoeVig]

Software needs:
Multiple sports on the same page (e.g. "bet the board")
Buy and sell points
Minimal graphics / flash
Little or no frames
No retarded pop ups like "Check out our LIVE wagering options" - only important stuff like a bad bet
No spyware (yeah CRIS I am talking to you "We're running some security checks...")

[yobinad]

Sportingbet also have a good site, but the best is without any doubts Bet365

[ZetaPsi808]

the greek

[jjgold]

I agree The Euros are much smarter than than American type offshore books and the software is much more user friendly and very advanced.
