"Versatile Golf Course Management Software"

5/5

What do you like best about Lightspeed Golf?

The ease of setting up player types (members, seniors, juniors, etc.) and having associated contact information is simple and quick. Also, those customers can then make tee times online using the website or the mobile app - which is great for customers to manage their golf without the need to make a phone call or come into the clubhouse.

Additionally, processing online payments or keeping cards on file for over-the-phone payments has been extremely useful during the current health climate. A lot of customers seem to prefer it as it saves time and gets them on the course golfing more efficiently.

Also, the different integrations and the color-coding of the software makes things a breeze for golf course staff to use the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightspeed Golf?

Sometimes the platform can be a bit slow as it sends tee times to the payment processing, but the card reader is very quick... so it's not the end of the world with that. I do prefer reading documentation/tutorials as opposed to watching videos, so that can be a drawback for some. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lightspeed Golf:

If you are willing to work hard to provide a better experience to your customers, Lightspeed Golf (aka Chronogolf by Lightspeed) is a great solution that can be scaled from simple to complex as needed. The staff is always willing to help through their support channel and consistently releases updates that are beneficial for both public and private courses (not just the private club aspects like house accounts/food and beverage/etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lightspeed Golf solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing multiple golf courses with shared golfer accounts/information to better understand our business. We have saved money as it's affordable and the reporting can let us view things at a course level, some of the courses or all of the courses. This allows us to make intelligent decisions on our day-to-day business and in turn, grow our revenues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very close to being the best"

4/5

What do you like best about Lightspeed Golf?

I like that it is cloud-based. I can access it anywhere or on any device that runs Chrome. It is also really fast when using the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightspeed Golf?

The software isn't quite as robust as other competitors out there. But they are updating the platform continually so it is just a matter of time until they catch up will all the features as full fledge tee time platforms. However, don't get me wrong this tee sheet will run circles around other tee sheets in terms of speed, simplicity, and innovation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Lightspeed Golf:

I would say with anything make sure you have the software set up precisely when you start. You can always change things around but having it set up the right way gives you a great foundation for using the software. Those thinking about switching I would do a comparison and see if it makes sense for your business since not all operations are the same. I haven't regretted the switch. There were a few pains in the beginning but I think that would be present no matter what system we switched to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Lightspeed Golf solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to manage our tee sheet in an efficient manner that is user-friendly to both the pro shop staff and the customer. We have been able to more easily push special offers out with this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
