The short version

  • Only AgriWebb has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: AgriWebb priced per head of livestock, so the bill scales with the herd rather than with the features used; Toro Lynx Central Control nSN is free only for the first year after purchase, and the Lynx mobile app is tied to an active NSN subscription, so the remote control feature demonstrated at sale disappears in year two unless the club renews an item the capital budget did not carry.
  • They diverge on capability: AgriWebb covers Animal inventory management, Toro Lynx Central Control covers Course mapping.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

AgriWebb

  • Priced per head of livestock, so the bill scales with the herd rather than with the features used
  • Available in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, the United States and South Africa only
  • Movement planning and grazing planning are $300 a year each on top of the subscription
  • The Cibo Labs PastureKey add-on starts at $1,000 a year
  • Payments already made are non-refundable on cancellation

Toro Lynx Central Control

  • NSN is free only for the first year after purchase, and the Lynx mobile app is tied to an active NSN subscription, so the remote control feature demonstrated at sale disappears in year two unless the club renews an item the capital budget did not carry.
  • Lynx controls Toro field hardware, so central control and sprinkler manufacturer are a single twenty-year decision and a club cannot switch software without rewiring the course.
  • It runs on a Windows workstation in the maintenance building as the system of record, which means a machine that has to be patched, backed up and eventually replaced, and courses routinely run it on hardware well past support.
  • Toro publishes no pricing at all: everything comes through a distributor quote inside a large irrigation project, so a club cannot separate the software cost from the pipe and heads to judge whether it is fair.
  • Full capability depends on the field hardware generation, and courses with older Toro satellites cannot use head-level Smart Module control without a field upgrade that costs more than the software ever did.
