Equine Record Keeping Software?

Lollappaloosa Acres · 10-19-2007, 07:56 AM

I've been contemplating buying software to keep my health records. Not my health records, my horses health records. I googled horse record keeping software, and there are way too many to choose from!

I want to keep track of health, feeding, immunizations, pedigrees, farrier visits, breedings, etc. The normal stuff. I'm looking for any & all advice on what program to use. Please help!

My computer genious husband built my program, customized for my needs, but I have heard the Equine Max program to be about the best on the market right now.

I just keep records on a floppy disk for each horse.

I use Visual Horse and love it. It keeps track of everything and you can enter multiple horses.

ETA: you can also print out any report, records (farrier, worming, vet, expenses, breeding etc), and pedigrees.

I've tried pretty much every program out there and Equine Max beats them all hands down. In my opinion. It is easy to use, great user interface, and prints useful reports.

I've tried all the ones I could find. They all have their good and not so good points. For us Equine Max was not an option, it just didn't have what we needed and it didn't seem to be non-horse business user friendly. We like visual horse or horsebiz the best.
