BarnManager is a tool that supports traditional horsemanship and enables you to spend more time doing what you love, working with horses. Convert your binders quickly and easily. Use your mobile device to snap pictures of your handwritten or printed notes, whiteboards, etc. Then upload these images, attach Horses, People and Keywords and easily search for these records using site wide search. Horse profiles provide a place to store all of the important information, documents, health and farrier records, and communications about your horses. Our Calendar can be viewed daily, weekly, monthly, or annually to enable short term planning, such as lesson scheduling, and long term schedules such as competition planning. Create table lists and check lists for everything and anything. Make feed lists, packing lists, temperature charts and anything else that you can imagine. Permission levels allow you to limit access to specific horses for owner or employee users. Use the digital whiteboard to take the barn aisle with you. How often are you actually standing in the barn aisle to read the information on the white board? The White Board feature enables you to check the board from the ring, the road or wherever else you may be.
