FieldLevel vs FieldRoutes
FieldLevel is the clear winner, offering a functional platform for athletic recruitment despite some paid features, while FieldRoutes is plagued by severe and consistent technical issues that render it nearly unusable for many users.
FieldLevel provides a valuable platform for connecting athletes with college coaches, with many users reporting successful recruitment, though some features are paywalled. FieldRoutes, in contrast, is an unreliable field service app, with widespread complaints about crashes, slow loading, and critical map view bugs.
Head to head
You are a high school athlete looking for college recruitment opportunities, or a coach seeking to connect your athletes with colleges, and are willing to pay for premium features for enhanced visibility and communication R2R5R8.

Evidence note: FieldLevel's reviews, while generally positive, do highlight some recurring technical issues and concerns about the cost of premium features. FieldRoutes' reviews are almost universally negative, detailing severe and consistent bugs that make the app practically unusable for many.

- [R2] FieldLevel Outstanding Baseball tools and App: Our experience with FieldLevel has been outstanding. The platform opened doors we never expected and connected Daniel with many colleges, coaches, and programs we might not have found otherwise. FieldLevel is much more than just creating a profile. To get the most out of it, you need to stay engaged. Keep your videos up to date, complete your profile, respond to
- [R8] FieldLevel COMMITTED!: Thank you FieldLevel for giving me the opportunity to talk with college coaches, allowing them to notice me, and helping me match a school that best suited me! My journey has been awesome but you guys have made it even better!
- [R23] FieldLevel amazing app: i wouldn’t have gotten to the level i am without this app. field level has allowed me so much exposure. i can’t say enough
- [R25] FieldLevel Great App Highly recommend: I don’t usually write reviews, but FieldLevel has no doubt been the greatest help in my recruitment. I never played High School baseball and field level was such an amazing cute to reach out to coaches at the next level and organize all my film! Thank you FieldLevel!
- [R6] FieldLevel Squash some bugs!: It’s great when it works but has been crashing a lot lately. So frustrating!
- [R7] FieldLevel Never Works on iPhone: I give this a 2 because when it does work it’s nice. But I’m sick and tired of having to email the company to resolve glitches just to log into the app. I am a college coach and this is extremely frustrating as I use the app on my phone 90% vs the compute 10%. I am always on the go but being able to log in is completely unreliable. Too bad. Great idea. Need to invest in the
- [R10] FieldLevel Stability Concern: I’m on an iPhone 11. Intermittently it will not load and say “Something went wrong. We have been notified” then “Back to the app”. It doesn’t go “back” to anything. I can’t seem to trouble shoot correctly bc nothing works and I never know when it will happen or start working again. Frustrating. When it works…I love it.
- [R15] FieldLevel Great app ...: Its a great app but why did i get locked out of my account please help me ...
- [R1] FieldLevel No womens bowling: Come on Already probably the fastest growing sport in college for young women is bowling but not according to this app. Oh well RecruitUS is way ahead of all of these apps go their if you want you son or daughter to bowl in college
- [R13] FieldLevel Doesn’t have cheerleading.: NAIA cheer is a competitive sport and this app does not offer exposure to this massive group of athletes. Many universities- especially because of the pandemic- have struggled getting athletes to tryouts and with recruitment.
- [R14] FieldLevel Good but wish I could say JUCO VS HS: I love the app and I’ve now been able to commit thanks to it although I wish I could say I’m now a 28 JUCO transfer instead of a 26 highschool grad
- [R17] FieldLevel Love it absolutely! But one thing……: I LOVE this app, but there is one thing, I also do horse riding and I think it would also be great if there was equine colleges in there, I just think it would be great too, so that other equine riders can use this app too. especially since Field hockey is a backup plan, but I do field hockey for fun. Though I know this is called FieldLevel for a reason, becaus
- [R3] FieldLevel It’s okay: It’s good but why do you have to pay 30 dollars to contact the college and see if there interested in you I find that kind of a rip off
- [R4] FieldLevel $50 for Video compression: For $50 a month, our 4k videos should not be getting compressed. We should be able to upload and view videos in the quality that we choose. This is totally unacceptable.
- [R5] FieldLevel Great app for athletes: Schools post kids who are interested respond . Fantastic for kids looking to pursue sports after high school .
- [R28] FieldLevel Great customer service: I was having issues and the service team went above and beyond to fix this.
- [R64] FieldRoutes My reviews are ignored: This app crashes every single time without fail if you try to take a phone call while using the app. If you’ve spent 30 minutes writing out an extremely detailed report for the EPA, all of your effort will be lost and need to be redone if you spend more than 10 seconds in any other app. It also automatically zooms out to encompass the entire freaking world anytime you back
- [R74] FieldRoutes App sucks: This app sucks!!! I miss the old pest route. This app is constantly crashing and support is the worst. YALL THIS APP SUCKS USE SOMETHING ELSE
- [R96] FieldRoutes Worst App Ever: All you’re going to hear with this app is did you delete it and reinstall it or what version are you using because it never works. You would think a company this size could have it figured out, but it is exactly what it’s living up to a one star
- [R30] FieldLevel good app: doesn’t have wrestling 😓
- [R9] FieldLevel It’s 50/50: I like the app, I think the concept and everything about it is really helpful for high school athletes. The only thing I would say is that field level premium is way to much money, it’s nice being able to see that colleges are looking at you. But at the same time how am I supposed to know what colleges are looking at me unless I pay the 39$ a month which seems a little high in price. O
- [R55] FieldRoutes Issue after issue: If I could do zero stars I would. I’ve seen people leaving reviews about the issues I’ve also been having and someone asking for an email or a soon resolution. Unfortunately nothing has been solved even after sending them an email and being told they’d get back to me. The app crashes every single time it’s left in the background. It’s really annoying and ads up to a lot of time
- [R58] FieldRoutes Worst work app ever.: This is hands down the worst app for work and or routes ever, that I have had to deal with. Bar none, crashes every other stop if not more. Don’t use it. Find another app
- [R61] FieldRoutes Buggy mess: I have to constantly reinstall this app multiple times a week becuz it’s too incompetent to just work. Nothing in this app works as intended. I can’t even scroll through my options on my routes it’s just frozen there half the time. The other half of the time I’m sitting there while it’s buffering just trying to load my routes for the day so I end up having to sit here and waste my prec
