Art Gallery Software Reviews | Masterpiece Solutions

What Our Customers Are Saying:

"Masterpiece was the best investment I ever made. Period." Steve Cawdrey, Nancy Cawdrey Studio

"With all my staff, and all my Inventory, I simply couldn't run my business without Masterpiece." Barbara Kittrell, Kittrell Rifkind Art Glass

"The monthly task of tracking and paying our artist consignments was a huge burden for us. Since implementing Masterpiece Manager art gallery software we can in less than a second with one push of button, accomplish the work that used to take 5 to 7 work days to complete. This enables us to use those labor intensive hours doing what is much more fun and important; marketing and selling" Gary Gardner, Turning Leaf Wood Art

"While I haven't really scratched the surface of the full functionality of your software, I will say that I am very impressed with its capability. The fact that you have created a product that's so comprehensive and have designed it to be user-friendly enough for lesser professionals to navigate, and most importantly, to be able update their own websites in a way that is up to very professional standards, is truly amazing. The instructional videos are clear and I have had zero issues figuring out the basics." David Langlois, The Chigago Gallery

"Without the effective use of technology we would be in big trouble" says Gallery Director Zelma Legendre of the Thornwood Gallery (www.ThornwoodGallery.com). With large galleries in Dallas and Houston (2), the Thornwood Gallery has established itself as a major presence in its regional art markets. Like so many Art Galleries, it struggled with the complexity and costs associated with the operations of the galleries; keeping a real-time handle on the inventory across multiple galleries was almost impossible; effectively tracking sales contact information in a way that supported future marketing efforts was non-existent; managing consignments and third part payments was tedious; and then there was the monthly costs of attempting to keep there web sites current with their inventory, events and latest news." Zelma Legendre, Thornwood Gallery

"Once we invested in Masterpiece Solutions everything changed. We quickly gained control of our business, turning a liability into a competitive advantage", says Legendre. Thornwood implemented Masterpiece Gallery software September of 2007 to handle all of the major back-office functions of the business: Inventory, Customer Management, POS and Web Integration. Since that point the galleries have significantly reduced their operational expenses by eliminating inefficiencies and third party vendors. Surprising to Ms. Legendre, the galleries have also experienced unexpected growth during a period of economic chaos. "With a touch of a button Masterpiece updates our entire inventory, sales and marketing information to our web site and to Masterpiece Online. As a result the internet is an asset, driving new sales for the business rather than simply serving as a glorified business card." Zelma Legendre, Thornwood Gallery

"After trying several other art POS type programs, we have come to depend on Masterpiece Manager. It's ease of use, outstanding support and extensive data reporting make it an invaluable tool for any Art Gallery owner." Dean Lombardo, Objects & Images

"Masterpiece is a comprehensive art gallery, business and museum collection management software system. This is the perfect software for art galleries, antique stores and museums. It provides easy to use screens with unparalleled reporting power. It is the perfect solution for digitizing permanent museum collections. By using masterpiece the Leighton collection will be more organized and better preserved for future generations." Robert Sommers, Blue Heron

"We are in the midst of inventory, and my boss is absolutely enthralled with Masterpiece. She's seeing the end results. I am very proud of my personal efforts, and I remain profoundly grateful for your patience in getting us to this point. I know it's all part of what we are paying for, but you guys have been terrific, 'way beyond the call of duty, and I do appreciate it." Gay Wirth, Wirthmore Antiques

"Hi, I just wanted to write to express my gratitude on this great program, we have learned lots, and we are all really quite excited to experience how powerful it is. We can all see how easy this is going to be to get our inventory and accounting in order. It's great - thanks again." Lorraine Webster, Webster Gallery

"I wanted to take a moment to thank you for the incredible service I have received from your company.... I always take time to do extensive research before making a purchase like I did with your company. Your exceptional product met all my expectations and the pricing was the most competitive in the marketplace. I will happily recommend your company." Rio Robson, Son silver West

"Thank You. For taking a great deal of stress out of our lives!." Dayle Dunn, Dayle Dunn Gallery

"We bought the system as soon as we saw the first flier. It's exactly what we needed. We didn't find any other system or company that really understood galleries like you do. And we did look." Erika Schroter, Cole Pratt Gallery

"Congratulations Masterpiece. From this end it looks as if the change over went very smoothly, and Quick Link is really snappy!" Jack Weinhold, South Wharf Gallery

"I just wanted to share with you that we have received many,many comments about how beautifully stunning our website is, thanks to your efforts. People from many places have made these comments and said it is not only beautiful but easy to navigate and find information. Thanks for all of your hard work and great results." Jonathon Mountainsong, Mountainsong Gallery

"WOW! The website looks beautiful. I just arrived home and see that you have it up and working. It seems like a miracle after all these changes and revisions you, Logan and I made. You were so smart, clear, persistent and many other good things - I can't thank you enough! You have been just wonderful to us." Jane Tyndall, Tyndall Galleries

"We have been using Masterpiece since 1999 and have been extremely pleased. It is very easy to update our website and I love the way sales and inventory are all integrated. Pictures display well and the support staff is very helpful. I know others who have paid tens of thousands of dollars for their websites and do not get nearly the value I have for a very fair price." Terry Heller, Artisitc Judiac Promotions

"Our web site is looking great! Thanks for taking care of all our little changes so quickly!" Dawn Blanton, Andrea Smith Gallery

"Masterpiece Online (formerly the Archer Exchange) is the future of art distribution for every gallery and artist. Art buying in the 21st century has shifted its focus to online browsing and purchasing. With hectic schedules and less free time, the online marketplace has become a convenient and necessary source for clients looking to peruse available art. Masterpiece Online offers an invaluable service to anyone looking to purchase or sell quality fine art." Dean Lombardo, Objects & Images

"Just wanted to say thank you again to all of you. I understand this is a difficult and complicated process, but my experience with the masterpiece crew shines head and shoulders above the last database company we worked with. Even with the difficulties (which I assume are unavoidable in these projects), it's been a pleasure working with you. I will feel much better leaving F.A.A. in September with a fully functioning database, and with you I have confidence that will happen." Kip Howe, Fine Art Associates

"YOU ROCK!!!!! This solved all of the recovery issues I was having after my hard drive crashed. MP started right up, and all of the email issues and stuff were resolved. Email even works without having to retype my email address each time!!!! SUPER COOL! Thanks for your help getting my reinstall issues resolved. Best regards, and thanks, Bear ;-D " Bear Limvere, Standing People Designs

"As an artist couple, keeping track of our work and the prices, dimensions, locations and images was a nightmare. Archer Artist Software for Artists has been the single most important purchase I've made for our business since the digital camera. The management of our paintings, the website, and our images is organized and simple now. In one step I make a permanent record of an artwork and its image, and refresh our website. I recommend it to any professional artist." Melisss Hefferlin

"Thank you for having such an amazing and friendly staff for us all to work with. You all have always gone above and beyond what could have ever been expected. Masterpiece is incredibly user friendly as is your knowledgeable staff. Every time I have a question your team responds with a solution so quickly and they are professional and patient. I am not by any means a "computer" person and yet, your team manages to listen patiently, interpret remarkably well, and make me feel like my questions are reasonable. (I'm laughing at myself regarding that last comment as I can hear myself in a recent exchange fumbling through my interpretation of a "description" of what was going on, poor Jesse!)" Shannon Hanna, Insight Gallery

"YEAH! We have contact with Masterpiece!!!!!" Caroline Belanger, Pan American Arts

"Thank you again for your help today - you are awesome! And yes, you can quote me on that!" Dennie White, White Rock Gallery

"Thanks for the info and all of your assistance in getting Malton up and running. I am now a big fan of the Masterpiece software! It is really cool and you guys make it a breeze to help support. I would appreciate it if any of your other gallery clients in the Cincinnati area need technical assistance, either in setting up a new Masterpiece installation, moving the data to a new computer, or with any networking needs. Thanks again and have a great holiday weekend! Don." Don Nickol (IT), Malton Art Gallery

"Thank you so much for your help- everything is taken care of- you're wonderful!!" Pat Kronk, Charlene Asdourian Antiques

"Thanks so much Jesse for such great service. I will keep my eye open for funny stuff and keep you posted. Hopefully this will have fixed it. I still am really happy with the program." Lorraine Webster, Webster Gallery

"I appreciate all your help all these time. I am not sure how much longer I will be working here - we have a lot of changes going on and I just want to have the opportunity to thank you for making my job a lot easier - every time I called for tech support and you are patient enough in explaining to me how to navigate this program better." June Feir-Cruz

"Thanks to everyone at Masterpiece for making yourselves quickly available when I need technical support. Your Support Team is intrepid in solving my issues. I am very, very grateful that I can rely on you and the whole staff to keep my websites and inventories running smoothly." Melissa Hefferlin

"We knew that this was a tough environment in which to open a new art gallery. We wanted to make sure we had every advantage. Masterpiece Manager has allowed us to run the gallery most effectively with very few employees. The dynamic web site that Masterpiece built for us is awesome. It updates automatically as we do our daily business. The rich functionality of the application streamlines all aspects of our business from inventory to sales tax calculations to payment processing...it really is a comprehensive package." Lucinda and Jonathan Mountainsong, Mountainsong Galleries

"The Masterpiece Anywhere solution allows Elena and I to constantly know exactly what is happening in our galleries, regardless of where we are." Werner continues, "when I am on a buying trip, I can add inventory while traveling that will instantly be available to either store. I can also publish new inventory immediately to our web site. This is a tremendous advantage we have over the competition." Elena and Werner Obermeier, Boomerang Art

"My brother Mitch and I recently acquired the well established Selman fine art glass business. We want to aggressively grow what is already the leader in the fine glass paperweight segment. The previous owner was using multiple software packages to handle inventory, point of sale, consignments and contact management." Continued Ben Clark from L. H. Selman, "we knew that for us to accomplish our goals we needed a fully integrated software solution that would take our business to the next level. Masterpiece Manager has done that and more. The team at Masterpiece Solutions has been with us every step of the way." Mitch and Ben Clark, L H Selman

"We have art two galleries; in Palm Desert and Seattle. We needed to be able to not only view what was happening at each gallery, but we needed to conduct business between the two galleries - in real time. This meant, adding and selling inventory, marketing to customers and running financial reports... while keeping everything perfectly I sync. With Masterpiece Anywhere our two stores look like a single business, AND we can do our business from anywhere; at home, in a hotel or from within one of the galleries." David Roberts, R E Welch

"Thank you! I love the new program" Stephanie Ostrow, Artistic Judaic Promotions
