Sometimes when you're inputting record information there is a lag time switching between records.

The ArtBase team is promptly responsive,  always has answers,  easily understandable and immensely helpful and adaptable. I have nothing but good things to say.

Artbase is very user friendly, with good UX and is straightforward. It's simple to keep track of inventory and invoices.

The customer service has been consistently great; they are extremely knowledgeable and super friendly.

As the person who handles the financial aspect of our business, I love the ease of use of the invoicing system and the accounting reports.

It is a powerful system, but also works well for small galleries. The system was a great improvement for tracking images.

Not the cheapest system - but  you get what you pay for.

Amazing very easy to use and helps with all our galleries needs. It is great for consignment , sales, and offers.

There are no actual cons. It does so much that it takes a little bit of time to understand ALL of its functions.

ArtBase is super easy to modify and customize, too, so it blends well with existing excel reporting.

Also great how it works on PC,MAC and mobile seemlessly.

It is very difficult to use for staff members travelling or using the system remotely. Customization is also very expensive.

I can’t speak highly enough about ArtBase. The program is wonderful and keeps getting better.

Working with Customer Service is like calling up a friend and asking them to help with a project. They are super accessible and e joy to work with.

Overall it's easy to use and very straightforward. You can customize it to your needs.

Its a fruitful system for an Artist, I got this program six months ago and the quality of that program is amazing. Besides, the videos are really helpful to understand the system.

The training videos are helpful and well-thought out to anticipate most basic questions. The personalized training is very good.

Excellent customer service. I couldn't recommend more highly.

Artsystems is not only intuitively designed and straightforward to use, it also allows us to integrate our inventory, contacts, and transactions, efficiently cross-linking all of the data.

When I started my project, I was working with a 35mm camera and keeping hard copies in plastic sheets in binders.

Allows me to be the best registrar of the collection. It's extremely important to me.

I love the convenience of the cloud based program, it is easy to use and very simple to navigate.

With the migration to the fully web-based Artsystem5 this inconvenience was removed.

Software support has been excellent. The savings I have realized from being on top of otherwise-misplaced inventory is well worth the investment cost of Artsystems Pro alone.

The ease of use; the ability to include a variety of images; and the Customer Service is FABULOUS.

We converted our art collection management system from a home grown Access Database to Artsystem5 and I have been extremely pleased with the entire solution.

We have been using Artsystems for many years at Gary Price Studios and have been pleased with their level of support when needed and with how the software is designed.

The people behind this software understand the needs of artist estates and are a joy to work with.

On top of that, the support staff has been great to help me learn just all what the system can do. Artsystem5 allows me to be more productive every day.

Artsystems has been flexible and supportive of our needs. They provide excellent customer service and are always responsive.

It's been essential to be able to rapidly build custom reports on a certain set of artwork.

Etherton Gallery has been with Artsystems for over a decade, and we couldn’t be happier with the program. It has everything we need, and more, to store our inventory with ease and peace of mind.

I can rely on Artsytems for timely service when needed and for innovating its integrated product lines to support and grow my business over time.

I started using Artsystems software earlier this year and was impressed by their customer support. I received quick responses to my inquiries.

We love how simple it is to use and does not require a lot of training to understand how it was designed.

Artsystems have found a way to support our bilingual website which was super important.

Having used Artsystems Pro (with Cloud Sync) for a number of years, I was impressed by its wealth of features and attentive support team.
