PastPerfect Web Edition

The cloud-based solution combining the power of PastPerfect with the convenience of working online.
PastPerfect Web Edition is the affordable, cloud‑based software solution for organizations looking for a hosted collection and contact management software in one package. Work from your desk, inside a gallery, at an offsite storage location, or anywhere else that has internet access using your computer or tablet.
With PastPerfect Web Edition, you pay a low annual fee for the hosting of your data and images, based on the number of users and the amount of storage space needed. All maintenance and updates to the software are included with your annual fee, along with technical support.
For current PastPerfect users, Web Edition is an optional upgrade. A built‑in import tool brings your data, images, and multimedia files into the software, preserving the hard work you have done in the past.
We offer free trials to any organization considering Web Edition. For current PastPerfect users, we include a consultation with one of our Web Edition Specialists to review your data. Call 1‑800‑562‑6080 or email us for more information.
