Where Partake is different
Book and order on one course-branded site
Golfers book a tee time and order food on the same site, on your own domain, with no app to download.
Kitchen screens with course firing
Any Partake device can run as a kitchen screen. Items route by station, and meal courses fire automatically or when the server calls them.
Food cost from recipes and sales
Partake Costs covers vendors, purchase orders, AP invoices, and counts, and works out food cost from recipes against POS sales.
When Club Prophet may be a better fit
Club Prophet has been in golf for more than 30 years and serves daily-fee, municipal, semi-private, private, and multi-course operations. Its member billing handles dues, assessments, food and beverage minimums, and statements, and its inventory module supports unlimited suppliers and full purchase orders. A club that wants deep pro shop inventory and member billing from a long-standing golf vendor may find Club Prophet a better fit.[1][6][7]
