Formats and structure
My Bracket covers single elimination, double elimination (with an integrated losers bracket), and round-robin. It doesn't advertise Swiss, multi-stage, or cup & consolation. The team cap is 64 per bracket.
Score7 covers every format My Bracket does and adds Swiss, cup & consolation, and multi-stage templates. There's no 64-team cap per tournament.
Scheduling
My Bracket's focus is bracket generation — automatic seeding, bye management, and sharing. It isn't a scheduling tool. You can't assign venues, referees, or match durations, and there's no conflict-free auto-scheduler.
Score7's auto-scheduler (Premium) handles venues, referees, match duration, and minimum rest time between matches — useful for physical events with multiple courts or pitches.
Player statistics
My Bracket tracks match winners, not per-player stats. If you're running a football or basketball league and want a top scorers table, you'd track it separately.
Score7 tracks per-player stats for football (goals, assists, cards, clean sheets, MVP), basketball (points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks), rugby (tries, conversions, penalties), and volleyball (points, aces, blocks, digs) — with automatic leaderboards.
Pricing
My Bracket is free for brackets up to 8 teams. Beyond that, it's subscription-based: $5.99/week, $9.99/month, or $39.99–$49.99/year.
Score7 is free for 1 active tournament with no team cap and all formats unlocked. Paid tiers start around $9/month for 3 active tournaments.
For one-off small brackets (8 teams or fewer), My Bracket is cheaper — it stays free. For anything larger, Score7's free tier is more generous, and paid pricing is comparable.

Bottom line

Choose Score7 if you run leagues, school tournaments, or multi-stage events, need real scheduling with venues and referees, want player-level statistics, or organize from Android or the web.
