Masterpiece Manager reviews
What our experts say
While Masterpiece Manager does not offer a free trial, you could still request a free demo, which makes it a clear introduction to how this software looks and operates.
Based on a free demo, plus numerous reviews from gallery owners, artists and art collectors, we concluded with the following pros and cons.
Pros:
Designed with convenience in mind, Masterpiece Manager makes the process of adding and tracking inventory an easy task even for a novice artists and gallery owners. “I had a few hundred pieces of inventory to log when I was first opening, and with a little guidance from the tutorial videos and Customer Service, I was able to get it all in with no issues,” noted one of them.
Another feature that is highly appreciated by users is the immediate transfer of inventory to a website. “The fact that I can put info in once and have it both in my POS and on my website is a lifesaver!” continued the same user.
Several users also noted that after going through a struggle to find software that caters to the complexity of running an art gallery, they finally found Masterpiece Manager. It is one of the most intuitive software, which means you do not have to worry about certain data appearing too late on your website. With a few clicks, as you update the inventory, (for example, sell an artwork) it automatically updates it as ‘sold’ and takes off the website within three days.
Masterpiece Manager is a cloud-based software that comes with mobile apps, along with e-commerce, invoice features and seamless integration between the website and all your devices. Art dealers and collectors can easily track and manage inventory, consignment, and revenues, without having to be near their computers. That saves time and reduces the frustration of dealing with technical issues of other apps.
Finally, Masterpiece Manager offers a diverse selection of pricing packages. They understand that artists have a smaller inventory to upload, and track compared to art galleries. At the same time, local boutique-like galleries never handle as many art pieces as a national-scale museum. Considering those differences, Masterpiece Manager’s pricing is tailored individually to each group within the art industry. For instance, their Artist Package is twenty-nine dollars per month, while Gallery Package costs one hundred and thirty-nine dollars.
