Argus overview

What is Argus?

Argus is a web-based collections management solution for museums and galleries designed to aid with curation and expand visibility, outreach, access, and relevance. With the aim of helping businesses to provide an enhanced visitor experience, Argus equips users with tools such as workflow management, real-time updates, platform synchronization, online catalog, visitor portal, and mobile and social media integration.

In order to aid with collection management and curation, Argus offers a web-based platform accessible from any mobile device enabling organizations to offer a catalog of artifacts and exhibits within a public portal, and keep records up-to-date from anywhere. Staff can search for, record, and update data wherever they are, and do on-site inspections of inventory and input information into the Argus database in real time. Museums and galleries can upload their collection to the visitor portal which offers powerful search functionality and is discoverable via Google for additional reach.

Argus' back office tools allow users to create automated workflows, update the catalog, upload images and documents, and generate reports. The customizable workflow editor allows users to automate tasks, and any data entry or catalog modifications are automatically synchronized to the visitor portal so that information is always up-to-date and accurate.
