cattle management software

The idea for developing a cattle software program came to Terrell and Penny Miller who had met while students at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. The result of an independent study project for a class planted the seed for the start of the CattleMax software. As Terrell and Penny were starting their married life in 1999, an opportunity to develop a program for the cattle record keeping needs of Hilliard Ranches in Milam County, Texas was presented.

The incredible response to the basic software program by Jim Howell, ranch manager for Hilliard Ranches, and the reaction of other cattle producers encouraged Terrell and Penny to pursue the CattleMax software on a wider scale and commit to the business full-time.

Now, over 9 years later, CattleMax is used by thousands of cattle producers in all 50 US states and over 35 countries. The continued support and feedback has been quite encouraging that CattleMax is now on its 4th version of the software.

In 2006, we were honored to be included in the Aggie 100, which recognizes the fastest growing Aggie owned and operated companies. Cattlesoft was the only agricultural company to be awarded this achievement. ("Aggies" are graduates of Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.)

We want to find cattle producers who are very knowledgeable with the CattleMax software, so that’s why we only send job announcements to customers and not to open job boards or websites.

In the fall of 2007, Terrell and Penny realized the need to expand their team and sent an email to current customers asking about their interest in our customer service positions.  Who better to help with service needs than cattle producers who actually use the software themselves? Meet the customers chosen to assist with your questions and service needs.

We all enjoy working at our own locations and being able to work with our cattle. On rare occasion you may get our voice mail system during the day (8am-5pm CST Monday-Friday) which probably means we are all on the phone or out checking our cows! Leave a message and we will be sure to get back with you by the end of the next business day.

Our team provides the right mix of cattle experience and knowledge of technology to help you get (and continue) on the track for better management and cattle records.
