May Transition Update

[SteiraMan]

Is there any update for the ambit 2? I own an Ambit 2, and found out that Movescount.com doesn’t display “Progress and Metrics” anymore. Additionally, not all moves are shown in the overview below “Activity Feed”. I expected that movescount.com will work as good than in the past until Suunto provides a solution for Ambit 2, and feel very disappointed now.

@SteiraMan Exactly. SA is not - at the moment - usable for A3P, so I expect, that Movescount.com will be FULLY functional, untill Suunto make significant progress with SA and Ambits.

@Mff73 received a survey for MC yesterday… I wonder who else received it, because I did not…

[Mff73]

@TELE-HO
I must be drunk, but I am almost sure this survey was in MC app

[freeheeler]

@Mff73
I looked in MC web and app, maybe it was a selective survey… OR it was for people that used it frequently in the past weeks and as I was on vacation and just enjoyed the waves and the beers, the possibility is that I was skipped

I love how people here are clinging onto the hope of getting any clear and coherent information about Ambit1/2 and Movescount lifecycle.

I can smell a sinking ship from a mile away and sold my A2 S for the price of a quality 12-pack of IPA right after buying a Garmin Forerunner 245. I will be downloading all my MC activities this afternoon -before deleting my account.

Mentally, I’m now in a better place. I’ve also discouraged everyone who looks to me for tech advice against purchasing Suunto products specifically because of this hot mess - not to say dumpster fire.

As a silver lining, I can only hope business schools far and near will use this odyssey as a cautionary tale against making loyal customers feel like they purchased and use disposable goods and services.

I’m now going for a run. Afterwards, I’ll reflect upon how worry-free and seamless the Garmin ecosystem is. While drinking an ice cold IPA.

Received when using Movescount (web or app, i don’t remember), and launched at work, no alert.
But maybe.

@almic
that’s not nice, you make me jealous about that IPA!

you have some good points… but I still don’t give up… maybe it’s my mentality?!

I saw the Coros Vertix today… very nice!
But I guess I will enjoy my new A3P Sapphire for a while.
And if not… I can also go cycling and skitouring without any watch
…by the way… @Jouko-from-Suunto update message did not push me off my socks again, either… sorry to be honest…

Ok, so probably it’s due to http:// protocol

if there is any miracle, let the movescount become the web interface of SA, please

@zhang965

I feel this survey like that.
Fingers crossed.

@Mff73
in the URL it seems like it was mainly meant for Spartan users…

[Mff73]

@TELE-HO
Or for 1974 born people
Looks like more a categorized released

[SteiraMan]

Nothing moved forward, beside other issues, Movescount does still not show “Progress an Metrics” from moves uploaded with my Ambit 2. Therefore, I phased out my 6 year old Ambit 2, and purchased a sport watch from an other manufacturer. To transfer all my Suunto moves to the software from my new smartwatch was easy, and I can see progress and metrics in apps and on a PC perfectly again. I’m very happy with my new sport watch, and wanted just to say good bye Suunto.

[BernhardT]

@SteiraMan Just out of curiosity: where did you move to?

[SteiraMan]

@BernhardT I moved to Garmin, to a Fenix 5 Plus. Like it very much, data recorded at moves are similar to data from Suunto. I can still prepare routes on a PC, or on my smartphone. User interface on PC is great, and the Android App is great, both are more user friendly than Suuntos solutions.
I hope, quality of the Fenix 5+ and Garmins heart belt is the same than from my Ambit 2 and Suunto heart belt, because both work very well after 6 years in use…
