### "GolfStatus - your website services and support staff ROCK!"

June 7, 2021

5.0

We have nothing but fantastic things to say about GolfStatus and all of the staff we have had the privilege of working with. Overall, they make sure you are taken care of and feel like a top priority to them. I cannot recommend them enough!

Pros

4 key points for us about this software: 1) The customer service is on point for GolfStatus. I think any question we have had has been answered within a 10 minute window and the staff has went above and beyond to make sure we understand things and are taken care of. 2) The appearance of the website: the interface is clean and direct. It's pretty simple to understand for users (and once you get the hang of it, the back end is pretty good as well!) 3) Setting things up: This is made easy for almost anyone to do. We love the features! 4) Payment: The site being tied to Stripe has made our lives so much easier! I cannot begin to talk about how many hours the website has saved us as a team in organizing the event.

Cons

There really are no big cons we can think of. If I was nitpicking it all, I would say there are some reports that could be easier to pull / run for the event -but that's really nitpicking at it.

### "Makes taking registrations easy "

Pros

I like how it make taking registrations so easy.

Cons

I wish you could click on on a registration package to see who has registered for that package.

### "Worth it for a golf tournament"

May 7, 2024

4.0

It was great--the team at golf status is incredibly responsive and helpful! Again, I think if you’re looking for a quick, easy, and inexpensive golf tournament management software you’re in the right place.

Pros

I think its an easy registration software when you have a specific event like a golf tournament with 4 players on a team and holes etc.

Cons

Unfortunately, it was marketed to us as something that could be customized depending on our needs, and that was not entirely true due to the technological constraints on the software to be JUST for golf tournaments.

### "The Todd Daniels Memorial Foundation LOVES GolfStatus!!!"

September 18, 2024

5.0

Perfection! Every team member I've ever worked with has been accommodating, friendly, and proactive. I can't say enough good things about our experience. We can't wait to team together again next year.

Pros

The staff is incredibly helpful, not only in creating your tournament site but also in educating our team on how to best use the software. We've used GolfStatus two years in a row at our charity golf fundraiser, and we couldn't be happier. Totaling scores and breaking flights at the end of the day is nothing more than clicking a button. Not to mention, the tools within the software for scorecards, golf cart signs, alpha lists, etc. make life easier for our organization and the golf course staff as well. GolfStatus is a true blessing to our organization!

Cons

My only recommendation would be to overhaul the registration pages that our team captains and sponsors see when purchasing their packages. It works. There's no complaint there, but it isn't graphically pleasing to the eye. For such amazing software, it lacks a modern look.

### "Looking Forward to Our Next Event!"

November 21, 2024

5.0

Great experience, Looking forward to partnering with y'all again next year!

Pros

There are so many things I really love and appreciate about GolfStatus! - Anytime I had a question or needed anything \[sensitive content hidden\] was quick to answer and help me out. - The website is easy to navigate for both hosts and players/sponsors - I have gotten great value out of the webinars hosted by GolfStatus that I have attended. The format they use is unparalleled! - The added bonuses and connection to Dormie Stay and Play packages added great value to our event.

Cons

I can't think of anything. I look forward to using the program again because there were a lot of resources on the website that I did not get to use this year due to time.

October 21, 2024

5.0

From start to finish it was easy to work with GolfStatus. I have worked with them for 3 years and will continue to work with them for future golf events. The program is user friendly and when you need help, they are just an email away.

Pros

The ease and convenience of the program to use. And, the amazingly fast response time of my contact (Jon S) to help with anything I needed.

Cons

I can't think of anything I would change.

October 31, 2024

5.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] is always so helpful leading up to our tournament and makes everything run so smoothly!

Pros

Ease of access. Extremely user friendly.

Cons

Adding players to a tournament is a bit time consuming. You can import from a list, but it would take just as long to filter list properly.

October 22, 2024

5.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] was great! He was always available to answer questions and promptly return calls or emails. Anytime I needed to have a conference call, there was a virtual set up as well. Loved the instant reporting of how many golfers/sponsors I had signed up and how many spots were open.

Pros

consistency with lists and reports QUICK service from the staff when I had questions.

Cons

price of the credit card charges, but that is likely uncontrollable from GolfStatus. Technology sponsor was too expensive.

### "Grip N' Rip Maui Loves Golf Status"

September 23, 2024

5.0

Great customer service. Jon was assigned to me and was always available. He was always re-assuring me that we are in good shape and kept it upbeat and positive even when I was losing my mind. Response time before and after the tournament was great. Use of the emergency number helped.

Pros

I love having control over the teams and making changes right away. There are so much more that I see we can do but I didn't dive into it but will surely be more into the system next year. Loved being able to print the lists as soon as making changes. I'll probably utilize the sign options more.

Cons

I can't really say what I didn't like about it. We had a little hiccup, but it was more user error not being familiar with the system. Came up with a game plan for next year so we won't have that hiccup.

### "Golf Outing Management"

October 24, 2022

5.0

Our golf outing is an annual fundraiser for the boys' and girls' basketball programs at our high school. We typically have a full field for our golf outing, but it's not a fundraiser that's designed to raise tens of thousands of dollars. However, you never would have known that in dealing with GolfStatus. They treated us as if we were running the most prestigious golf outing in the world. We are very happy that we chose to use GolfStatus for our golf outing. Not only did it make publicizing and running our golf outing much easier, but GolfStatus's customer service and support were outstanding. They took the time to do an online demo while we were considering using the product. Once we decided to go with them, they created the website for us and then scheduled an online training session to teach us how to use and edit it. The week before the outing, they scheduled an online meeting with us in order to finalize any last-minute details and prepare us for what to do on the day of the outing. During the outing, their customer service was always available to answer any questions that we had. That was very impressive, especially considering that our outing was on a weekend. We couldn't be happier with our choice to use GolfStatus. We will use them again next year, and we would highly recommend them to anyone else who organizes and runs a golf outing.

Pros

The software made running our golf outing so much easier. We used GolfStatus in order to publicize our golf outing as well as to register golfers and donors online. Those were huge benefits for us as in the past we had to collect paper registration forms from each golfer and sponsor, and all payments had to be in the form of cash or check. It also greatly sped up the registration table on the day of our golf outing since all of our golfers had already registered and paid online beforehand. For the last several years, we've had a full field for our golf outing, and the waiting list was a nice feature because golfers could see who was already registered and know when the field was getting close to being full. This allowed us to have our field finalized much earlier than normal. The on-course scoring and skins tracking were game-changers for us as well. It saved us a tremendous amount of time at the end of the outing since we didn't have to sit down and figure out the golf outing winners and skins winners. The skins tracker was a fun feature for the golfers because they could see what skins were still available in real-time during the outing.

Cons

There really isn't much not to like. We are a nonprofit organization, so there was no cost for us to use the software, which was a huge benefit. If we could change anything, it would be to have an easier to way correct a team's scorecard while the golf outing was taking place. We had a team who mistakenly submitted their scorecard after the first hole, and it wasn't very easy to simply allow them back into the outing. To GolfStatus's credit, however, their customer service was online and helped walk us through how to get them back in the outing. It would also be nice if they had a built-in app for sponsors to resize their logos so that they fit the size requirements of the GolfStatus app. It wasn't difficult for us to do it using the software that GolfStatus recommended, but it did take some time as we had to do it for most of the sponsors since most didn't have the technology to resize their logos. Those were relatively minor hassles, however. The benefits of the GolfStatus app far outweigh any negatives.

### "Great Software to steam line golf tournament planning "

May 9, 2023

5.0

The biggest problem GolfStatus solved was automating the registration and payment process. It helped make that a lot less manual and alleviate the stress of chasing payments. It also made the event a lot more professional in my opinion.

Pros

The best features of the website were being able to register and pay online easily and be able to track teams, sponsorships, etc. I really liked the reports that were easy to generate such as scorecards, cart signs, player lists and more that saved me time on the back end. It was a nice feature to have the ability to pass on processing fees to participants so it does not take away from money for the fundraiser. I also cannot say enough about the customer service. Every time I had a question my account manager (Paul) promptly got back to me and was very helpful. In our post-event follow up, I shared by feedback and ideas to enhance the website further and it seemed like a lot of my ideas were already in the works so GolfStatus is constantly looking to improve and add new features such as invoicing, easier logo uploading, etc. that will make this an even better product in the future.

Cons

I wish there was a section I could add notes such as "paid by check, comping tee-sign, etc." I think some of the challenges for me was that there were still a good amount of people that wanted to pay check so I had to manage two systems (GolfStatus and a Google spreadsheet) which was time consuming. With the ability to send invoices in the future, hopefully that will be solved. I would like to see a tab where you are able to manage tee-signs in the future (i.e. company name, logo received, sign created, etc.)

### "Great experience"

July 19, 2023

5.0

Overall, it was a great experience. Myself and a few others were in charge of planning a charity golf tournament for the first time, and GolfStatus made this manageable in many ways. The GolfStatus staff was there every step of the way to assist and ensure the event was a success.

Pros

GolfStatus was great from the start. We started with a virtual meeting to get our team introduced to GolfStatus, and everything started from there. \[sensitive content hidden\] and the entire GolfStatus team were extremely helpful and very proactive throughout the entire process which included setting up the website, fine tuning the website’s features, launching the website, and managing registration/donations/add-ons/etc.

Cons

The only con was with the mass email feature that allowed the admin to email all of the registrants. There were only so many words allowed in the email, and it was a little less than we would’ve liked in order to get all of the necessary information to the registrants.

### "1st Time Golf Tournament and it went great"

May 3, 2024

5.0

\[sensitive content hidden\] was great to work with. He walked me through all the steps we should do. He was available right away the day of the tournament. The website was great to use and easy for people to navigate through. The day of the tournament we had problems with the app but \[sensitive content hidden\] was there getting everything fixed and entered the scores for us while we ate lunch so we could do our presentation on time.

Pros

The ease of getting people signed up, the paying of money online right away, the help of walking us through how to do everything we needed to do.

Cons

The GolfStatus app on the phone was not easy to use. It took us bout 45 minutes to get the things to work right.

### "Makes managing a golf outing easy!"

June 7, 2023

5.0

Overall, I feel lucky to have found this platform when I first started our annual outing. I had never run a golf outing and am not a golfer, so this make it really easy.

Pros

I like that it is structured specifically for golf outings and gives you all of the tools and reports you need to be organized and professional. I always get comments on how well our outings are run and Golf Status plays a huge part in that.

Cons

I would like the option to list sponsors according to their sponsorship level. It just groups them all together and doesn't allow us to recognize the different levels.

May 9, 2023

5.0

It was just easy to implement, it is easy to use and the customer support is world class. We have used them for 2 years now, and we will use them going forward. Thank you.

Pros

The pros are that the site is fairly easy to navigate, get the tournament open and published to social media, it looks great from a user experience and the best part is the amazing customer service. If I had any question what-so-ever, it was answered promptly and often \[sensitive content hidden\] would support us by executing the item we had a question about. After the event, they paid our charity promptly. They took an administrative burden off of our plates so we could focus on other tournament tasks.

Cons

I would like more customization in the Volunteer Registration Section.I would like to see the "sponsorship item" under the logo on the sponsorship page once the item was purchased.

### "Million Meal Movement"

June 10, 2023

5.0

The overall experience has been great. I will no longer be part of the Golf Outing Committee next year, but I believe our organization will continue with it.

Pros

Customer Service— \[sensitive content hidden\] was great to work with and provided the necessary information and reporting to get the most out of our event. He worked with us from start to finish, and his communication was excellent.

Cons

The reporting and classification of sponsorships. \[sensitive content hidden\] helped us with workarounds, but I feel this area could be improved.

Reason for choosing GolfStatus

We reviewed several options (it was 3 years ago, so I can't remember who). GolfStatus made it easy and was superior to other options at the time.

June 9, 2023

5.0

My overall experience was perfect!!

Pros

All of the features are easy to use for both me, the administrator, and the consumer. The reporting is great and was very easy to download and to send to the golf course. \[sensitive content hidden\] and the entire staff are stellar. I could not ask for better customer service. They respond to you within minutes. Everyone that registered to sponsor or golf was impressed by the ease of use. The tracking of money was great. Very easy to go in and look at from computer or mobile on the fly.

Cons

I do not have anything negative to say.

### "Best golf software to run your own tournament"

August 14, 2023

5.0

9.9/10 and dealing with \[sensitive content hidden\] makes it as good as it gets!

Pros

Going ti online registration and payment has helped us go from 80 players total to 120. Just the ease of signing up online alone has gained us $3,000. We have a skins game two days of our 3 day tournament and it makes it so easy to automatically know what holes and who has skins.

Cons

I wish we could customize our scorecard printouts to have players home town or home course below their name.

Reason for choosing GolfStatus

Way way way cheaper and had just as many features as we were looking for to run our tournament.

### "Nonprofit Fundraising Made Easy"

October 28, 2023

5.0

Pros

We loved how easy it was to manage our event using the GolfStatus platform. I feel like the platform is very easy to manage and pretty straightforward. But due to the nature of our event (2 playing formats within the same outing) we needed a certain level of flexibility and GolfStatus provided that. Our Client Success Specialist, \[sensitive content hidden\] , was great, helping us navigate the system and making sure that we were on the path to hosting a successful event. The support that \[sensitive content hidden\] and his team provided is why we will use this platform as long as I'm helping to lead First Tee - Benton Harbor.

Cons

We love everything about the system. We haven't been able to utilize the live scoring system for our event, but that's an issue for us to resolve, not GolfStatus.

July 12, 2023

5.0

Having used the program for the past 3 years has allowed me to streamline the time needed for setup and running the tournament. I like how the registrants are added to the website, so everyone can see who's playing. I'm extremely pleased with the program and will continue using it in the future.

Pros

The client service is exceptional. Whenever I had a question, I could start a chat. The response time and answers were delivered quickly. As we considered other promotions, they also provided valuable feedback. These guys were great.

Cons

It would be helpful to have the ability to give more promotion to those sponsors who donate more to the cause. Limiting it to just one could be improved.

### "Why wouldn't you use GolfStatus"

May 3, 2024

5.0

We will continue to use GolfStatus for our events moving forward and I look forward to any expanded features they add.

Pros

GolfStatus provides a platform to make event management seamless. We've hosted our last two golf tournaments with a field of 144 golfers and numerous sponsors flawlessly because of GolfStatus. Registration is handled and having the contact information for all your users is helpful for pushing announcements and any follow up needed. The mobile app for in tournament is a great feature to keep up with the leaderboard and provides a great way to sell sponsorships since they are highlighted throughout the app. \[sensitive content hidden\] has been a huge resource from a customer service perspective to help when I am unable to handle things on my own or needs to be done quickly.

Cons

Some of the customizable features are challenging to navigate on the users end but having \[sensitive content hidden\] to help where needed makes it a null point for us.
