About
CRIO Online is a comprehensive, cloud-hosted equine and barn management software built to replace spreadsheets, paper notes, and disconnected tools for horse farm operators. Starting at just $9.90/month, it provides an all-in-one solution covering every aspect of running a modern equine business — from boarding and invoicing to breeding records and training logs. The platform is designed with simplicity in mind, making it accessible even to non-technical users while still offering deep functionality. Because it's entirely web-based, owners, veterinarians, farriers, and employees can all access the system simultaneously with role-based permission levels — no more relying on a single office staff member to enter all data. Key capabilities include horse record keeping (health, history, lineage), stable and barn management, financial tracking and invoicing, breeding program management, and training session logging. Data is hosted on high-availability servers with daily backups, eliminating concerns about data loss from hardware failure or viruses. CRIO Online continuously evolves based on user feedback, with updates rolled out automatically — no manual installation required. It supports English, Spanish, and Portuguese, making it ideal for equine businesses across Latin America, the US, and Australia. A free trial is available with no credit card required, allowing new users to explore all features before committing to a subscription.
