Altosoft and principal Peter Busch work with the contract bridge community.
Altosoft develops the popular Compscore3 bridge scoring software. Altosoft has also created and hosts bridge club web sites.
Compscore3 (and its predecessor Compscore2) has been in this space for more than 15 years, and is used by hundreds of bridge clubs and many tournament directors across Australia. It is used at major gold point events including the Summer Festival of Bridge, Barrier Reef Congress and others in Australia, and at New Zealand's National Congress.
Altosoft also hosts the bridge portal Bridge Australia, which is used as a respository for selected State and National tournament results.
Developer Peter Busch is a national tournament director, and in his pre-bridge life spent over 20 years in the IT industry where he developed packaged and custom software packages, mainly in the accounting arena. As a bridge player and national tournament director, he is well placed to design a bridge scoring system that is intuitive to users, covering all necessary aspects of running club sessions and tournaments.

What's new?
Compscore3 now available
We have released Compscore3 which is a re-write of Compscore2.
Our aim is to stay up to date with changing technology and while Compscore3 is operationally very similar to Compscore2, the underlying technology will ensure a much longer lifespan. If you're used Compscore2 then you will have no problems using Compscore3. Compscore2 and Compscore3 can even open the the same database (at different times of course), and you can hot-swap between the two programs.
Compscore2 users pay just $75 to upgrade, and as part of the upgrade you will receive a new licence number. However upgrading is not a requirement - existing users may stay on Compscore2 as long as they wish. The price for the full program for new users is $325.
How to order your upgrade: To order your upgrade, email us at peter@altosoft.com.au.
Converting to Compscore3 is easy. Just download the new program, and enter your licence number. You'll then be automatically taken through a Compscore2-to-Compscore3 conversion routine.
If we've piqued your interest, have a look at our new Compscore3 page on this site. You can even download the new operating manual and other documentation from our Compscore3 Resources page.
