This
demonstration web site was created using Gallery Express Art
Gallery Management Software.
Gallery Express is a fully featured inventory
management and point of sale program developed specifically for art galleries that
includes consignment and sales commission management, artist biographies, accounting
reports and (of course!) web publishing. Click
Here to visit
our website and learn more.
This site is intended to represent a typical art gallery, containing
unique works of art, limited edition prints and miscellaneous regular inventory items such
as books, magazines and posters.
Compare our web publishing features:
Other art gallery web publishing packages use an on-line database to dynamically create
your website. Gallery Express creates real html web pages.
The advantages of this system
are:
- Being able to maintain website wherever you want at competitive
market prices rather that being committed to signing long term contracts at costs that are
often from $50.00 to $150.00 per month higher.
- You own and control your data and when you decide
to move your site your data is with you and not locked on server
someplace holding you hostage.
- Integrated inventory management does not require duplicate data entry
for the gallery point of sale program and again for the web site.
- HTML web pages will load faster on your client's computer.
- HTML web pages are indexed by search engines much
better than online database driven sites so that anyone
searching for a particular artist or work of art will find your site!
