Cody Beach review 6 5 2006-11-20 11:29 I have used this program since its BETA version. Prior to t hat i had tried about everything on the market and been more then unhappy with them. Stockman Caprine Edition offered by Animal Record Keeping has both a PC and a MAC version and are now working on a hand held addition. I love the find features on this program as well as t he fact that there are special record keeping window to allow for specific information for meat, fiber and milk records as well as show wins, vet logs etc. It even prints out your registration applications.
review 1 5 2006-11-22 08:17 Outstanding program. Was recommended by other goat associatlon members. The price and the amount of data I'm able to record, it can't be beat. They sell programs for all other livestock breeds as well. Quick service and support. Highly recommend. review 2 4 2006-11-22 20:27 A very good program. I use it daily. If they had a handheld version would rate a 5. review 0 4 2006-11-24 09:32 Overall, I really like the program. The program offers a lot of different information to work with. I do wish that it would accurately calculate percentages, right now you only get to pick from a drop down list of percentages. I see the price as fallen quite a bit now. review 3 5 2006-11-29 14:50 I've been using My Farm for several years now and love it. It prints out wonderful reports for tax prep, H&R was impressed. They give free upgrades pretty often. You can print nice sale flyers, etc. I definately recommend this program. review 5 5 2006-11-30 22:34 This is an outstanding program for record keeping. They are continually making updates to the software which can be downloaded from their web site free of charge. A breeding planner allows you to check the pedigree of a potential mating. The data views are customizable to meet your particular needs. Truly well designed. review 6 3 2006-11-30 22:37 I used this software initially but it just didn't meet my needs. It was not as user friendly as the Ranch Manager software from Lion Edge. review 3 3 2006-12-03 00:22 I have owned this software for a number of months. Had some issues getting it working properly. Since getting it working, I haven't used it heavily or used all the features. It is a pretty basic software program. I like being able to print out pedigrees. I also like the opportunity to do the farm's accounting via the software. I plan to use that feature next year. Herd-Pro $495 to $995 Free Demo www.herd-pro.com tailored to fit the needs of today's dairy and livestock industry through the input of hundreds of farmers, veterinarians and consultants just like yourself. 2 8 Farm Stock $225 www.123farmworks.com/stock.htm From the handy calendar with automatic event scheduling to the hassle-free blood line area; from the extensive yet flexible record-keeping to the comprehensive reports, Farm Stock has something for every livestock operation, no matter how large or how small. 1 5 review 18 5 2007-03-11 11:53 I Love this program, been using the demo and as soon as I can afford it I will be buying it. This is THE program for the professional. If you want to actually see the stats from all the info you collect this is the program. (IE, length of a doe's last gestation, how many days into this pregnancy, days of lactation, how many days open, kidding intervals,classification scores, last vaccination info, EVERYTHING at a glance ) if you are looking to keep the best of the best in your herd this information could definitely tip the scales come cull time.
It also has Palm functionality - Awesome! review 0 2 2007-03-11 12:00 It has been the primary program I have used for my farm for about 3 years. It is entry level and I find it is buggy. Some of the notes are unaccessable to view later, I have had 'Ghost animals' appear and lost 3 years of info on a main herdsire. Been looking for a better more customizable program for a while now. FlockFiler $50 - $300 Free Demo www.flockfiler.com FlockFiler Lite puts your information at your fingertips. Easily browse, enter, and search for your information all from the same screen. 1 4 review 22 4 2007-03-10-13:27 Although I have not used the program and it was designed for sheep, I really do like it better than some of the others because of its flexibility (four custom fields), search any field and export to Excel or other programs for charts, global input from an existing spreadsheet and the general approach (the input data belongs to the user). Testimonials say that support is very good and many questions can get answered through the online forum. Two versions FlockFiler Lite $50 (or$90 with printed manual) and FlockFiler Pro $300, or $250 if you upgrade from FlockFilerLite. All data is transferrable.

jhanes@frontiernet.net review 1 2 2007-06-12 15:14 Found it to be too basic, did not gather information necessary
and in its smplicity, difficult to understand. review 2 4 2007-06-13 20:46 very good program and they are very helpful with their support.

has helped us to keep up with our herd more efficiently. it takes awhile to set up in the computer, but once you do you are there and can add to very easily. review 0 5 2007-07-22 22:54 WE HAVE BEEN USING THE GOAT BREEDS NOTEBOOK
THE PROGRAM IS THE BEST WE HAVE TRIED.EASY TO USE AND INFORMATION PLUS......J bar F RANCH review 0 3 2007-07-22 23:07 I bought the product but I have had a couple of issues and have contacted the company many times and they say we will get back with you within 24 hours. I have sent 5 e mails and have had no responce. So I am looking for another program where the company cares about the customers. review 1 2 2007-08-6 10:13 Very dissatisfied... program is an Excel spreadsheet.... You have to copy and create new tabs for each and every one of your animals and then after all that is completed the links are not correct so you have to do more work. NOT worth the time nor money spent! review 23 3 2007-08-16 12:23 Easy to setup and use, although the reporting and finace features are less than satisfactory. Tech support was helpful when they could be, although the language barrier had a lot to do with it. not a bad product for small herds review 4 2 2007-08-16 12:25 This is not free at all. It costs big bucks.... review 23 3 2007-08-16 12:33 Easy to setup and use, although the reporting and finace features are less than satisfactory.

It's easy to use, support can't be better and is frequently upgraded free of charge. What's missing is an easy way to track each breeders ongoing production record over the years. The info is there - you just have to hunt for it. review 5 5 2007-10-13 21:08 After many demo test runs from other companies... ... I LOVE this software, tech support is awesome, different species integration, and FREE updates! Take the time to create locations, areas where the animals are kept on the farm, and let the software do the rest. Mentioned a coulple suggestions and they said it is ready in the update! I would give this 10 stars if I could!!!! Eagle Bend Farm - Ohio review 23 5 2007-10-15 20:22 This was by far easier to use than any of the other 3 software packages I purchased.

It definitely meets our needs and is great for a small herd or a huge one.

review 18 5 2007-12-29 14:24 Farm Stock is great. Much better than the spreadsheet we were using before. Easy to use, reasonably priced for all the features. We have it on our home office computer and also Stock Mate on an ipaq pda so we can track details and update records in the field and barn. We also have friends who use other Farm Works programs for field records and mapping along side Stock and Stock Mate, and they are linked so you don\'t have to re-enter information and you get reports for your whole farm together. So it\'s flexible for those doing crops and goats or other livestock. HerdLogic $279 www.herdlogic.com HerdLogic™ is the new release, and major upgrade of LamaLogic™. The name change reflect new and enhanced capabilities for other species in addition to Llamas and Alpacas. Many new group functions and customizable reporting have been added. 1 4 review 43 4 2008-01-22 13:49 One of the better, more functional programs I have tried. There have been very few bugs that were quickly corrected by the manufacturer. Ability to record everything from AI breedings to medical and feed expenses. Shows growth charts, animal inventories and many other useful reports. Very user-friendly and intuitive. The only thing I don't like is the number of pup-up windows confirming certain actions. Would give it 5 stars if it had palm functionality. Otherwise, excellent value for the $$. review 23 4 2008-01-26 15:18 This is the best of 3 I tried. review 2 5 2008-02-23 22:55 We have used this program for almost 3 years now nad LOVE IT !!!!! It is so easy that our children can use it with no problems at all plus it seems like we find something new about the program all the time. review 3 5 2008-03-14 14:32 I've been using MyFarm Software for several years now and really like it. It really helps me organize my goat information, and tax info, which my tax preparer always brags about. review 5 5 2008-05-12 12:55 I have a hard time with most computer programs,and usually don't get the full benefit of all they have to offer. With this program I have been able to complete every task with very few problems.When I do have a problem I click help,then ( how do I ) and from the drop down menu select the task I am working on and follow the easy to read and follow directions to completion. I have not had to call teck support for anything.
Don Taylor review 4 1 2008-06-8 18:05 What part of Free don't you understand?
This is called "bait and switch" fraudulant advertising! review 3 5 2008-11-13 13:27 Wonderful program with excellent customer support. Allows me to keep track of animals both current and those that are no longer part of my herd but whose records I want to keep for historical purposes. Great reminders. Lots of report options. review 0 2 2008-11-28 14:26 Good for basic tracking of small herd. Has a tendency to lose info. Just downloaded an update from website by the step by step instructions & it totally screwed up a lot of my breeding files. We have over 200 goats to track. I had problems in the beginning when setting up the program & response from company was terrible , but I have now been waiting for days for some response to our current problem & still haven't heard anything. We are definitely looking for another program. review 0 2 2008-11-28 14:28 Good for basic tracking of small herd. Has a tendency to lose info.

If you want absolutely no support and be hung out dry buy this software. Does not work with newer operating systems. Nobody replies to emails. I would strongly ask people to keep away from it. I had to buy a new software and start all over again from scratch. review 0 1 2009-06-5 11:07 Folks this program is junk. Do not enter information into it because you will lose it.

Recommend them to all my friends. review 2 3 2011-02-26 19:41 I have used it for several years and have gotten all the updates. I have found it to be lacking in some areas. Just recently I had to clean my hard drive. When I went to put the data back in. I found out for the last 6 months all the data I had put in. The program had stopped backing it up. So now I am looking at recreating the last 6 months of kidding , shots, sales and the rest of the data I was tracking. I will rate it a okay program but I am sure there are better out there for the money. review 2 2 2011-03-1 07:39 have had program for several years and had undated to newer version. like the way it works untill printing anything everthing runs together making it hard to read or even useless you have very short names like mary tom boo ect registered names do not work when printing. contact MDI several time and they still have not tried to fix it. customer service very very poor. review 2 5 2011-07-18 22:38 The MDI Goat Manager has been priced at only $149 for the last two years!
