Verdict: Birdie vs EZFacility
EZFacility works well for multi-sport facilities managing courts, fields, and classes across staff members. If you run a facility with many different activity types and need centralized staff scheduling, it is worth evaluating.
Birdie is purpose-built for golf simulator venues — single-activity businesses where bay-based bookings, membership packages, and automated customer re-engagement drive all the revenue. If your entire business is simulators, you don’t need a platform designed for gyms.
