Archivist

Archivist — Devices

Archivist is a product of Ingenious Inc. It’s a web-based software solution for managing collections, custom-developed with expansive features and capabilities and the built-in flexibility to adapt to the needs of any collection-based institution.

 

Museums, galleries, and the like can digitize entire collections in one secure and central database; catalog objects, manage inventory, and interact with their collection on a whole new level. Functionality includes, but is not limited to:

  • Data Import & Export — Quickly and easily import and export collection data, and generate automated reports, so you can analyze the latest data to better understand your collection.
  • Dynamic Mapping — Manage items’ location and track movements with great detail—whether an item is on display, in storage, or on loan.
  • Advanced Search & Sort — Easily sift through data and get to just what you need. We can even customize your search and sort filters based on the type of data you track.
  • Selective Presentation — Control which of your collection items are visible to the public.
  • Collection Grouping — Group and categorize collection data in an infinite number of ways—by artist, medium, or some other way that’s unique to your collection.

These basic features are just the beginning—if you need something that Archivist doesn’t have, our development team is prepared to make it happen.

Archivist was designed with its users in mind. It’s robust and expansive—built to accommodate the needs of any and all collection-based institutions—but also intuitive and manageable. It shouldn’t be a struggle to manage your collection, and Archivist makes collection management simple.
