Who should stick with PoolExpert
- You want a regular-season pool or box pool.
- Your group already uses its mobile app.
- A small pool on the free Basic plan, with ads, is fine for you.
Who Office Hockey Pool suits better
- Your pool is big: 500 entries is one $29 Pool Pass, not $3–5 a person.
- You want no ads on the free plan.
- You want a bracket, pick'em or salary cap format as well as a draft.
Switching for the playoffs
Most pools start fresh each spring, so switching is mostly sending a new link. Create your pool, paste your rules into the announcement, and invite last year's group. On the Pool Pass you can export standings as CSV at the end.
