01 The Why
With the app’s barcode and QR code features, users can easily track the exact location of every item in the collection, ensuring that no piece is ever misplaced or forgotten. This feature is particularly valuable for large institutions with extensive collections spread across multiple depots or exhibition spaces. By scanning barcodes, museum staff can instantly update the inventory status of each item, reducing the likelihood of errors and ensuring records are always up to date.

The app supports professional Bluetooth scanners in addition to iOS or Android smartphones.

02 The How

When the app is opened for the first time, the relevant data from MuseumPlus is synchronized with MuseumPlus Scan. All actions such as location changes, packing, unpacking, condition recording or even newly taken photos are immediately synchronized with MuseumPlus if there is an existing online connection. This achieves unprecedented accuracy and timeliness in location management. MuseumPlus is optimized for speed, ergonomics, user-friendliness and security on all current smartphones and tablets.

03 The Wow

One of the outstanding features of MuseumPlus Scan is its ability to work both online and offline. This is particularly beneficial for museum staff who need to work in remote locations or in places with unreliable internet access. Whether on site, in a depot or deep in the museum’s archives, users can perform all necessary tasks without interruption. The app synchronizes with MuseumPlus as soon as the internet connection is restored, ensuring that all actions are properly recorded, logged and updated in MuseumPlus.

01 The Why

Der Zweck eines Online-Sammlungskatalogs besteht darin, die Sammlung eines Museums einem breiteren Publikum zugänglich zu machen, das über die physischen Grenzen des Museums hinausgeht. Das bedeutet, dass der eMuseumPlus-Katalog mit Blick auf den Benutzer gestaltet wird und dass der Zweck des Katalogs dem Benutzer klar vermittelt werden sollte.

02 The How

An online collection catalog should be user-friendly and easy to navigate. eMuseumPlus is designed to be logical and intuitive, with clear search and filter options that allow users to find what they are looking for quickly and easily. It is visually appealing, with high quality images and interactive features that engage the user and make the experience enjoyable.

03 The Wow

An online collection catalog should also contain elements of surprise that offer the user an unforgettable experience. This can be achieved through features such as virtual tours, behind-the-scenes looks at the museum collection and interactive exhibits that allow users to learn and explore in new and innovative ways.
