We use Past Perfect. It is hosted on a server that we care for, but we have the web feature. It only pops up on our site through a widget but is not hosted by our site:

That lets us control what is and isn’t public

We are using Arwork Archive at the FAU galleries. It is not perfect, but I love it because it is extremely simple. So simple that I can use students to administer the majority of it.

Hi Ron -- I met Dan with CatalogIt at a regional museum conference?
I was really impressed with him and the product. Definitely worth checking out

Hi Ron,

We've been using Artwork Archive and are happy with it. It can do all of the things you outlined. Though I have not really used the exhibition feature, so I am not sure if it is what you had in mind.

Happy to talk more or show you in person since we are neighbors!

Nichole

I have used Collector Systems and now Artwork Archive. Both are easy to use without the steep learning curve. Move from CS to AA for purely financial reasons, but AA is more and more features. Like someone else said it’s so easy that you can have student assistance with little training on it.

Ron! It's your old buddy from the Public Humanities Masters program! I'm with the Artwork Archive team and miss my days curating the JNBC carriage?gallery. It would be a thrill to bring those exhibitions online with Artwork Archive. The Granoff Center at Brown also uses us at Artwork Archive. I'd love to connect - even just to catch up.

We did too. Very pleased with Collectors System. Perfect for a small collection. Ours is under 10k objects.
