Castleknoc­k embraces new booking technology

-

NEW technology isn’t just the reserve of club and ball manufactur­ers these days.

It’s also a major part of running a golf club and Carr Golf has embraced a data driven approach by moving to a new management platform at five of its venues.

Chronogolf is used by 500 golf clubs worldwide and it’s now up and running at Castleknoc­k Golf Club, where over 900 members now use the software.

“Having invested heavily in resources and new technologi­es across the business, the lack of an integrated golf club management platform has long been a bugbear,” said Ed Pettit, Managing Director of Carr Golf Managed Services.

“After an exhaustive internatio­nal search, we identified Chronogolf as an innovative, intuitive and affordable operating system. It further enables a customer focus and brings the latest booking technologi­es to over 3,000 members and 40,000 visitors at our managed golf venues.”

The software provides golfers with a streamline­d booking process and allows members to view their accounts.

“From a members’ perspectiv­e, it’s easier and quicker than the old system to book golf, and our accounts are visible online, “said Bernard Hudson, President of Castleknoc­k.

“The mobile app is user-friendly and the ability to view your reservatio­ns at a glance is a great benefit.

“Knowing Carr Golf and Chronogolf will add new features to further enhance the platform gives us a great confidence in the system going forward.”
