What Our Clients Say:
We chose Aravenda because it wasn’t an off-the-shelf solution that required us to change our business to fit the software. Their team was willing and able to customize the platform around the workflows and requirements we had developed over many years. That was critical to us. We had a mature, successful operation; we weren’t looking to reinvent it. We needed modern technology that could support it and help us scale.
Today, Aravenda gives us a much more streamlined way to manage an enormous and constantly changing inventory of comic books, trading cards, collectibles, and one-of-a-kind items. Just as importantly, it helps us manage thousands of consignor relationships and the high volume of payouts that come with operating a global consignment business.
Moving away from a proprietary system we had relied on for years was a major decision, but the Aravenda team worked closely with us throughout the transition, customization, implementation, and ongoing development. Instead of continually investing our resources into maintaining aging software, we can focus those resources on acquiring collections, serving our consignors, reaching more collectors, and growing the business.
For an established reseller with complex requirements, Aravenda gives us something that’s difficult to find: the flexibility of a custom solution with the infrastructure, support, and continued innovation of a modern consignment technology platform.”
