## The panel's verdict

Stable Manager is a browser-based stable and equestrian management product from CMF-Solutions UG, built in-house since 2024 by the operators of Hof Garlebsen in Einbeck, Germany. Boarding and billing is the standout at a flat 6: a booked service becomes a team task and then an invoice, with standardised numbering, optional ZUGFeRD e-invoices, automatic email dispatch and payment-status marking. Pricing transparency is the floor at 0 to 1: no price appears on the captured pages — no per-horse, per-box or module figure, no setup fee, minimum term or VAT statement — while a full-access trial, self-registration and free personal onboarding are published. Horse care records, boarder portal and facilities and lessons score 4 to 5, with vaccinations and the duty roster evidenced but medication logs, farrier schedules and capacity rules not. Staff and operations spans 4 to 6, the widest gap, with the lower marks citing absent time recording; no genuine split was flagged. Sovereignty scores 5 to 6 on AWS EMEA SARL in the Frankfurt region and self-hosted Keycloak logins, with ownership and subprocessors unconfirmed.

**Speaks for it:**
- A booked service can become a team task and then an invoice, with optional ZUGFeRD e-invoices, automatic email dispatch and paid-status marking.
- A stable-wide vaccination plan with a mandatory flag produces weekly overdue emails to the operator and notifications to owners.
- The duty roster offers entry, swapping and one overview for everyone, with obligations set per person or horse.
- Boarders book services for several horses and days under permissions, with prices and booked services communicated transparently.
- The privacy policy names Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL with processing predominantly in the EU, a self-hosted Keycloak for logins, and EU-US Data Privacy Framework plus standard contractual clauses for US transfers.

**Held against it:**
- No price appears on the captured pages — no figure per stable, box, horse or module, no setup fee, no minimum term and nothing on data return on cancellation.
- We found no public information on SEPA direct debit mandates, credit notes, or an export to DATEV or any other named accounting tool.
- We found no public information on employee time recording, holiday planning or completion records per task.
- We found no public information on a medication log with dose and administrator, worming and farrier schedules, or passport and UELN data.
- Ownership, the contracting entity's jurisdiction and a subprocessor list with locations are not confirmed on the captured pages, and we found no public information on a data processing agreement or a security statement.

**Best for:**
- You run a boarding yard and want every booked extra service to flow into the invoice, with recurring monthly bookings renewing themselves and a forecast for the next month.
- You manage a self-care yard and need boarders to enter, swap and view duties in one place instead of a message flood.
- You want owners notified as vaccinations run out, backed by a stable-wide plan and weekly overdue emails to you.
- You prefer to evaluate with a trial with full access and free personal onboarding before any commitment.

**Avoid if:**
- You need to know the annual cost before speaking to the vendor — ask the vendor: the public pages we read do not show it
- Your bookkeeping depends on SEPA direct debit mandates or an export to DATEV or another named accounting tool — we found no public information on these.
- You must evidence employee working time for minimum-wage purposes — we found no public information on time recording.
- You require a confirmed contracting entity, a data processing agreement or a published subprocessor list before signing — we found no public information on these.

### 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.
