Our add-on modules
 
International Standards

Data Standards
 

Users
Only pay for the licences you need. You can create as many individual logins as you want and access the system through any number of workstations on your network. User licences are for concurrent access – limiting only the number of users that can be logged into Vernon CMS at the same time.

User licences
 
Workspace
Managing your collection often means getting information from different parts of the database. Vernon CMS lets you open several windows at once. You can click to open records in related files. User views let you create custom windows to show select collection data in a dedicated window.

Customisation options
Vernon CMS can be customised to meet your specific needs. Vernon Systems can develop customised data entry windows. These present only those fields relevant to your needs in the sequence and layout which best suits you. We can also build customised reports, email templates and calculated display fields.

Customisation
 
Security
You have the freedom to manage user access and allocate rights to view or modify collection data in any field. Administration rights also give access to the audit log where all changes to the database are listed. These changes can be “rolled back” if necessary. Your data is on a local server. As such you can get to it even if your internet is down.

How to audit
 

Vernon CMS Support Agreement
One fixed cost for all software upgrades and updates. You get access to our Customer Support Portal. Here you can ask questions, read the forum and interact with our user community. Our support gives you direct phone and email contact to our experts.

Retrieving collection data is quick and powerful. Vernon CMS has built-in search and retrieval options. You can perform a quick search at any time on the main screen, or open up the query window for a deeper search.

Cataloguing module
The Cataloguing module forms the cornerstone of Vernon CMS. It fulfils the basic needs of collection management and presents an intuitive user experience to nine interrelated databases. It comes complete with over 400 fields, multimedia, searching and reporting.

Reports
Vernon CMS has a built-in reporting tool. You can make reports on the fly, or craft the perfect report and save it as a template. Sent data to Microsoft Word or Excel, or export in a range of formats. 

More on reports
Integrate
We offer a range of methods to integrate with other software. Online collections, kiosks or mobile apps can be keep up to date. Data export formats are compatible with most third-party software. Web Messenger and Browser modules both automate integration. 

More about modules
 

Multimedia
Multimedia facilities are fully integrated at no extra cost. Any number of images, sound files and videos can be linked to any record in any file and the same multimedia file can linked to any number of related records.

Images, audio and video files
 
Donors and makers
Record and manage your donor and maker information within your CMS. A powerful people database allows you to create detailed records for any person connected to the collection. Tasks and costs can be associated directly to each person, and people (including donors or members) can be searched, grouped and assigned to mailing lists.
