"The novel management reports provide an invaluable insight into mastitis management on farm"
"We have been milk recording with QMMS for several years now and cannot fault the service we have received from them. The QMMS team is always friendly and willing to help in anyway they can. They not only provide us with reliable milk recording results but also offer fantastic mastitis control advice. Their speedy service is second to none and we cannot recommend them enough."
"I am happy to endorse the service provided by QMMS for my 400 cow herd. The service is totally flexible, I record when it suits me and I can choose from a range of testing options. The service is second to none being personal, efficient and quick, results are often back within 36 hours of sample collection. The cost is very competitive and I only pay for what I choose and the results are backed up with software and expertise. Overall, QMMS care about my herd health and my business needs.
"We began milk recording with QMMS in Spring 2016 and have been very impressed with the standard of service provided. Using QMMS means we can be more flexible on recording date and as we use our own staff to carry out the sampling the process is much quicker because we know the cows so well. The sampling kits are delivered well in advance and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. Samples are picked up by courier after morning sampling and we have our results back by email the following afternoon. Data is supplied in a format that can be run on our existing on farm software as well as the QMMS report software supplied as part of the service. Using QMMS has not only allowed us to make a considerable saving in the cost of recording but has meant an improved service with direct and immediate access to staff at the head office who have made the switch in recording service very straightforward and simple. Having switched I don’t know why we didn’t do it sooner."
