## The panel's verdict

HorseManager is stable management software from Bo Hippique, Sint-Oedenrode, Netherlands (KVK 75906198), aimed at boarding-stable holders with 10+ boxes and stated as not for riding schools. The judges scored it strongest on boarding and billing: recurring box rent, extras logged on the phone and carried onto the invoice, split invoices for horses with several owners, and Peppol e-invoices with links to Exact, Yuki and Snelstart are all evidenced; horse care records scored 6-7. Staff and operations scores sit at 4 — workflows, task lists and staff logins are shown, but the judges found no public information on time recording, shift or holiday planning, or who did which task. Pricing transparency is weakest at 1-2: monthly modules are described with no public price per box, horse or module, and no setup fee, minimum term or VAT treatment; a free forty-five-minute video call is the route in. Sovereignty scored 4-5, with Amazon Web Services hosting in EU, Frankfurt named while jurisdiction, ownership, residency and subprocessors remain unconfirmed. Scores cluster closely apart from boarder portal.

**Speaks for it:**
- Recurring box rent and extras logged on the phone flow automatically onto the monthly invoice, with credits, corrections and split invoices for horses with several owners
- Peppol e-invoicing with UBL files, VAT and intra-community overviews, links to Exact, Yuki, Snelstart and Twinfield, and invoices retained seven years under the fiscal retention duty
- Per-horse dossiers hold feed schedules, treatments, vaccinations, worming and farrier with automatic reminders, and one bulk action writes a farrier visit into thirty dossiers
- Customers onboard themselves by link, add their data, horse and arrival date, accept the stable's terms, self-reserve facilities and sign themselves in and out of lessons
- Export is possible at any time, including after termination, with twelve months of retention before definitive deletion, and the trial does not convert automatically into a paid subscription

**Held against it:**
- No public price figures on the pricing page — nothing per box, horse or module, and no setup fee, minimum term or VAT treatment
- No public information on SEPA direct debit mandates, dunning or VAT rates per service type, with payment collection evidenced only as a Mollie payment link
- No public information on employee time recording, shift or holiday planning, or any record of who did which task when
- No public information on owners viewing their own horse's records and invoices, or on keeping one boarder's data out of another's view
- Jurisdiction, ownership, data residency and subprocessor exposure remain unconfirmed, and we found no public information on a data processing agreement or a security statement

**Best for:**
- You run a boarding stable with 10+ boxes and want box rent, extras and care records flowing into one monthly invoice run
- Your bookkeeping runs on Exact, Yuki, Snelstart or Twinfield and you need Peppol e-invoices with VAT overviews
- You keep many horses and want per-horse dossiers with automatic reminders for vaccinations, worming and farrier
- You want boarders onboarded and reserving facilities themselves, with messages from the system instead of WhatsApp threads

**Avoid if:**
- You run a riding school and need school horses, lesson cards or clinics with registration and payment — the vendor states the product is not for riding schools
- You need time recording for employees, shift or holiday planning, or proof of who did which task when
- You must show owners their own horse's records and invoices in a login, with each boarder's data scoped
- You need published prices to budget an annual cost before the free forty-five-minute video call

## Scores by judge and criterion

### The judges

- **The Boarding-Stable Owner** (v1.0): Runs a forty-box Pensionsstall and loses a few hundred euros a month to blanket changes and leg wraps nobody wrote down. Wants extra services logged where they happen and billed without retyping, direct debit that collects on time, and one system instead of a spreadsheet and three WhatsApp groups.
- **The Stable Manager** (v1.0): Runs the morning round with two grooms, a trainee and a mini-jobber, and is the one the vet calls. Wants feeding plans the night shift can read on a phone, medication logged with who gave what, rotas and time records that hold up, and an app that still works at the far end of the barn.
- **The Boarder** (v1.0): Pays five hundred euros a month for her mare and works full time. Wants to see what the farrier did, why the bill has three extra wraps, and whether her turnout instruction was read — and does not want the other boarders, or an analytics company, seeing her horse's file.
- **The Riding-School Lead** (v1.0): Runs lessons six days a week on twelve school horses, plus weekend clinics with guest riders. Wants lessons and arena slots booked without double bookings, school horses not over-worked, ten-lesson cards that count themselves, and course payments that land in the same books as board.
- **The Tax Adviser** (v1.0): Does the books for a dozen equestrian businesses and knows that board, lessons and sold hay are not taxed alike. Wants invoices with GoBD-compliant numbering, VAT per service, a DATEV export instead of a shoebox of PDFs, and time records for the staff that would survive a customs minimum-wage check.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has seen stable apps arrive with a launch post and vanish two seasons later with the horse records inside. Reads "billing" that is a price list, "staff management" that is a chat, geofencing with no word on staff consent, and an imprint that names a riding stable rather than a software company — and asks what happens to the data then.
