The Argus difference

Fully Web-based Argus enables you to offer public portal access to objects and exhibits and provide more in-depth documentation about each artifact—delivering content in context. Leverage efficient purpose-built workflows with minimal training required, and rest secure in the knowledge that Argus is built on sustainable, cutting edge technology to remain relevant as your collection and requirements grow.

Museums and galleries stay accessible, visible and relevant

Argus empowers you to offer an educational, inspiring and entertaining experience for visitors around the globe. Open your doors to the world with a public access portal that offers powerful search and makes your collection discoverable via Google. Offer sophisticated image galleries with links to related objects, highlight special exhibits, and share curated collections. Offer mobile access for visitors and use your Web presence to show, tell, engage, and inspire.

Efficient, streamlined workflows

With dynamic updating, information entered behind the scenes instantly refreshes in the public portal, with no need for exporting or connectors. Intuitive, easy to use navigation minimizes training requirements for your staff, interns, and volunteers, giving them more time with the collection.

Request Management

Our feature-rich Request Management Solution offers capabilities that take museum research workflow seamlessly from request or project capture, to assignment and resource allocation, to collaboration, to (multimedia) documentation, to communication with the requester—and finally to automatic creation of a database for reuse and reporting—all within a single venue.
