    Quick answer

    What is equine practice management software, and what separates these seven?

    Equine practice management software runs the scheduling, horse records, billing and clinical documentation of an equine veterinary practice, built for farm calls and horses with several owners rather than for a fixed clinic. The seven products on this page separate on three things. Price model: StableTrack is $199 a month flat for the whole practice, Cassadol charges $89 per user, ezyVet starts at $260.50 per vet, and HVMS, ThoroVet, DaySmart Vet and Covetrus Pulse do not publish a price. Offline field use: StableTrack includes it in its iOS app, ThoroVet works offline on iPad, ezyVet Go syncs when signal returns, Cassadol sells it as a $39 per user add-on, and HVMS, DaySmart Vet and Covetrus Pulse do not publish it. Native imaging: StableTrack's equine PACS integration attaches Keystone studies to the horse's record; ezyVet and DaySmart Vet publish third-party imaging partners, Covetrus publishes DICOM integrations for other Covetrus products, and Cassadol, HVMS and ThoroVet publish none.

    Head to Head

    StableTrack vs Cassadol: feature and pricing comparison

    Cassadol is the equine PMS most often compared to StableTrack because both are equine-only platforms with published pricing. The difference shows up in what is included at the base price, and in which practice sizes each platform is built for.

    FeatureStableTrackCassadol
    Base price$199/month flat, unlimited users$89/user/month
    Offline modeIncluded on iOS$39/user/month add-on

    Cassadol is built specifically for solo and two-vet ambulatory practices; multi-vet practices are directed to the sister product HVMS. StableTrack is one platform across solo, multi-vet, and hospital-scale equine practice, with imaging integration and AI drafts that the veterinarian reviews before finalizing, included at a flat price regardless of team size.

    Buyer Framework

    What to compare equine practice management software on

    Before the tables, the honest framing: a feature checklist isn't a buying decision. The questions that actually matter for an equine practice are:

    • Is this software designed for equine, or is equine a side-feature? Multi-owner billing, syndicates, ambulatory workflow, and equine terminology should be native, not workarounds.
    • Does it work in the field? Most barn calls happen where signal drops. Offline matters.
    • Does it connect to the tools you already use? Imaging, accounting, payments.
    • What does it cost, before the demo? Per-user pricing scales fast in a multi-vet practice. Per-vet pricing scales faster. Flat pricing is rare.
    • Can you actually try it? A real trial with your own data is different from a sales demo.

    Comparison 1

    Built for equine

    How equine-specific is each platform's design? Multi-owner horses, syndicate billing, batch barn visits, and ambulatory workflows are equine realities, they're either native, partially supported, or workaround territory.

    The honest read

    EzyVet, DaySmart, and Pulse are all built as general veterinary platforms. ezyVet has an equine module with native syndicate billing and a companion field app, which makes it more equine-aware than the other two. Cassadol is the other genuinely equine-only platform here, built by Business Infusions (the company behind HVMS) for solo and one-to-two-vet mobile practices; it covers equine records, controlled drug logs, and time-of-service field invoicing, but its published materials don't list native multi-owner or syndicate billing, and Business Infusions points larger multi-vet practices to HVMS instead. ThoroVet, compared on its own page, is also equine-only, with split billing available and equine patient profiles. StableTrack is built exclusively around equine workflows from the ground up, with multi-owner and syndicate billing native on every record.

    Working in the field

    Equine practice happens in barn aisles, farm roads, and properties with no signal. Software that needs an internet connection to function is a real problem for ambulatory vets.

    The honest read

    If you do most of your work in the field with unreliable signal, offline is the single feature that matters most. Cassadol offers offline documentation as a paid add-on at $39 per user per month on top of its base plan. ezyVet Go also publishes offline use and syncs when coverage returns. StableTrack includes offline use in its iOS app, equine-trained voice-to-text, and AI SOAP note drafts that the veterinarian reviews before finalizing. ThoroVet works offline on iPad. DaySmart, Pulse and HVMS do not publish offline support. The iOS app on the right is what a barn-call workflow looks like when the software was designed for it from the start.

    Integrations and imaging

    Imaging integration is a major differentiator in equine practice, radiographs and ultrasounds run through every practice, and most software treats imaging as an afterthought.

    The honest read

    Each platform has a genuine integration strength. ezyVet's IDEXX diagnostics is a real advantage if you already run IDEXX labs. Covetrus Pulse's supply-chain integration matters most for high-volume practices buying through Covetrus. Cassadol's published materials describe direct IDEXX and Antech connections (and list Zoetis for an upcoming Clinic tier), QuickBooks Online sync, and Stripe payments, but do not publish a PACS or imaging integration. This wording is preserved pending confirmation with IDEXX and Antech. StableTrack's Asteris Keystone integration is the strongest equine-imaging story because Keystone is built by the same team, most vendors integrate with PACS as a partner, which is workable but never as deep.

    Pricing and getting started

    The hidden expense in most veterinary software is how it scales. Per-user pricing means every vet, tech, and front-desk hire is another monthly line. Multi-year contracts are common. Implementation fees are normal. The total cost of a $120/month plan over five years can be $30,000+ once it's all added up.

    The honest read

    StableTrack is the only platform on this list that publishes a flat monthly price and offers a team-guided free trial with your own data. ezyVet's price is public but climbs quickly because it's per vet. Cassadol also publishes pricing, $89 per user per month for Solo and $189 for Solo+, but offline mode adds $39 per user per month and there's a one-time $999 data conversion fee, with no free trial published; the per-user model compounds as you hire, so a two-vet practice with offline on both seats is $256 a month before conversion. DaySmart and Pulse are quote-based, which can be flexible but means you can't compare them at all until you're in a sales process.

    Summary

    The summary

    In plain terms, here's what each platform is best at:

    • ezyVet is the strongest mature option for equine practices that want integrated IDEXX diagnostics and don't mind paying for it. Its equine product and ezyVet Go app publish offline field use with later syncing.
    • DaySmart Vet is general veterinary software with an equine landing page. Best for mixed practices where small animal is the primary workload.
    • Covetrus Pulse is the right fit for practices already buying through the Covetrus supply chain who want one ecosystem for software and supplies. Equine specificity is limited.
    • Cassadol is the closest comparison to StableTrack on paper, equine-only, cloud-based, with published pricing, and a credible option for a solo vet wanting simple records and field invoicing. The differences show up in the details: offline is a paid add-on, AI documentation requires a higher plan tier or third-party integration, multi-owner billing splits are not published, per-user pricing compounds as you hire, and there is no published imaging integration.
    • ThoroVet is the other equine-only option, with a longer market track record. It is iPad-first, works offline on iPad, lists split billing, and runs on a monthly subscription with no long-term contract. As of 2026 it has no AI documentation, and it does not publish a price.
    • HVMS is the enterprise equine system from Business Infusions, the company behind Cassadol, with established hospital-scale workflows and a HISA integration that matters for racing practices. Pricing is per seat and quote-based, the cloud move is a migration to HVMS Vision, and offline field use and AI documentation are not published.
    • StableTrack is the only platform on this list that combines equine-only design with AI documentation trained on equine terminology and reviewed by the veterinarian before finalizing, offline iOS included at no extra cost, native multi-owner and syndicate billing, Keystone PACS integration, flat $199/month with unlimited users, and a team-guided free trial.

    If you treat horses for a living, the question isn't which veterinary software is best, it's which equine veterinary software was built for the work you actually do.

    Demo Scorecard

    How to choose

    Three honest questions to ask any vendor on a demo, including us:

    1. 1

      "Show me a barn visit billed across three owners by percentage."

      If it takes more than a single workflow, the multi-owner story is a workaround.

    2. 2

      "Walk me through documenting an exam offline."

      If the answer involves a connection, ask what happens at the third farm of the day with no signal.

    3. 3

      "What does this cost in three years with five vets and a tech?"

      Per-user pricing math gets ugly fast. Get the five-year number in writing.

    The right software for your practice depends on what you do most. Mixed small-animal and equine? ezyVet or DaySmart could fit. Racing work under HISA? HVMS publishes a HISA integration and StableTrack does not. Pure equine practice, ambulatory-heavy, imaging-driven? That is what StableTrack's equine ambulatory practice software and equine PACS integration were built for.

    What StableTrack does

    StableTrack is equine practice management software for ambulatory teams and hospitals, at $199 a month flat for the whole practice. Its equine medical records software keeps one longitudinal record for every horse across owners, barns and trainers. Scheduling is built around farm-call routes rather than exam rooms. Its equine billing software splits one invoice across several owners by percentage and takes card payments at the barn. Its equine PACS integration attaches Keystone studies to the same record. Its AI assistant drafts documentation that the veterinarian reviews and approves before it becomes part of the record. Review the published pricing or see all comparisons.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions

    The best equine practice management software for solo ambulatory vets is the one that keeps working offline in the field, handles multi-owner billing without a workaround, and does not charge extra for the features a mobile vet actually needs. StableTrack includes offline iOS, native multi-owner split billing, and equine-trained AI scribe at $199 per month flat, with unlimited users, so a solo practice pays the same as a five-vet practice. Cassadol is another equine-only option built specifically for solo and two-vet ambulatory work at $89 per user per month base, with offline as a $39 per user per month add-on.

    StableTrack and Cassadol are both equine-only practice management software, but they are built for different scales. Cassadol is designed specifically for solo and two-vet ambulatory practices; multi-vet practices are directed to their sister product HVMS. StableTrack is one platform for solo through hospital-scale equine practice. Cassadol's base is $89 per user per month, with offline as an add-on at $39 per user per month, so a solo vet with offline pays $147 per month. StableTrack is $199 per month flat with unlimited users, includes offline on iOS, native multi-owner split billing, an equine-trained AI scribe, and native Asteris Keystone PACS integration. Cassadol's AI documentation requires a higher plan tier or third-party integration, and no PACS integration is published. Cassadol alternative

    Both are equine-only. ThoroVet is iPad-first, works offline on iPad, lists split billing, runs on a monthly subscription with no long-term contract, and has a longer market track record; as of 2026 it has no AI documentation and does not publish a price. StableTrack runs the same app on phone, tablet and desktop, works offline on iOS, includes an AI assistant that drafts SOAP notes from the veterinarian's dictation, generates invoices from clinical records, and costs $199 a month flat for the whole practice. StableTrack vs ThoroVet

    Most equine practice management software does not include native imaging integration. StableTrack integrates natively with Asteris Keystone PACS because both are built by the same team, so equine imaging studies attach directly to the horse's record without a third-party bridge. Of the other six platforms on this page, ezyVet and DaySmart Vet publish third-party imaging partners, Covetrus publishes DICOM integrations for other Covetrus products, and Cassadol, HVMS and ThoroVet publish none. Equine PACS integration

    Horses are owned by partnerships, syndicates and trainers, so one visit often has to be invoiced to several payers. In StableTrack, ownership splits are set on the horse's record and each invoice divides automatically by percentage across owners, syndicates or trainers, so a barn visit billed across three owners is one workflow rather than three invoices typed by hand. Of the other six platforms on this page, ezyVet publishes a native syndicate billing module and ThoroVet lists split billing; Cassadol, HVMS, DaySmart Vet and Covetrus Pulse do not publish multi-owner billing. Equine billing software

    Equine practice management software is administration software built specifically for horse and equine veterinary practices. It brings scheduling, equine patient records, billing, and clinical documentation into one platform designed for ambulatory and field-based work. StableTrack is an AI-first equine practice management platform built exclusively for equine veterinary practices.

    The best equine practice management software is the one that matches how a practice actually works, ambulatory routes, multi-owner horses, and field documentation, rather than a small-animal clinic. StableTrack is equine-only and AI-first, with offline iOS records, multi-owner split billing, and an equine-trained AI scribe included in a flat monthly price. For a side-by-side look at StableTrack and named alternatives, see the comparison further down this page.

    General veterinary software assumes a fixed clinic, one owner per patient, and front-desk billing after the visit. Equine practice management software is built for ambulatory work, multi-owner and syndicate horses, and billing that happens at the barn. StableTrack handles these as native features rather than the workarounds common in software adapted from small-animal platforms.

    Good equine practice management software keeps working when field signal drops, which is routine on farm calls. StableTrack's iOS app lets ambulatory vets document exams and pull up equine records without a connection, then syncs automatically once back online. Offline iOS is included in StableTrack's flat price rather than sold as a paid add-on. Mobile and offline app

    Equine practice management software is priced three ways: per user, quote-only, or flat. StableTrack is $199 a month flat for the whole practice, with unlimited users, offline iOS, the AI scribe and data conversion included, and a guided trial arranged with its team. Cassadol publishes $89 per user per month, with offline a further $39 per user per month and a $999 one-time data conversion fee. ezyVet publishes a starting price of $260.50 per month per vet. HVMS, ThoroVet, DaySmart Vet and Covetrus Pulse do not publish a price; each quotes on request. StableTrack pricing

    Yes. Modern equine practice management software automates the repetitive work around a visit: appointment reminders, treatment orders on a schedule, charge capture from the medical record, and first drafts of SOAP notes and discharge summaries. StableTrack uses an equine-trained AI scribe to draft documentation from the exam, and every automated draft is reviewed by the veterinarian before it is finalized.

    Yes. HVMS is the enterprise equine system from Business Infusions, the company behind Cassadol, and practices often look for an HVMS alternative when per-seat licensing and server-based workflows add up. StableTrack covers solo through hospital-scale equine practice in one cloud platform at $199 per month flat with unlimited users, so growing multi-vet teams add doctors without changing systems or paying per seat, and data migration is included in the team-guided free trial. HVMS alternative

    Not necessarily. A standalone AI scribe drafts notes, but it typically lives outside the medical record, so the draft still has to be moved into the patient record and billing handled separately unless the two tools are integrated. When the scribe is native to the practice management software, like StableTrack's equine-trained scribe, dictation becomes a structured SOAP note directly on the horse's record with charges captured in the same workflow, and there is no extra per-user scribe subscription to pay.

    Yes. Equine hospitals need inpatient tools on top of ambulatory features: treatment sheets on a time grid, a hospital board showing stall occupancy, and shared records across clinicians. StableTrack supports hospitalized patients with admit workflows, timestamped treatment administration, and imaging and billing tied to the same record, so ambulatory and in-clinic cases stay in one system.
