The date has not yet been confirmed. It will depend on the speed of development and the results of tests with the first users. We currently expect to launch in the second half of 2021. You can subscribe to our newsletter if you would like to be kept up to date.

We will contact you well in advance and work out a timetable in consultation with you. We will continue to support the previous version of Memorix for as long as necessary.

When importing existing collection information, we will decide together which information will be modelled as linked data. It is also possible to import existing metadata without modifying it.

We have indeed used CIDOC-CRM as the basis for our data model. It is a comprehensive and powerful model. Fortunately, lots of smart people have already thought about its application in practice. We are taking our lead from the practical and considered approach adopted by Getty, for example (see also http://linked.art). We are confident that using CIDOC-CRM will make the metadata more usable and more accurate.

Absolutely. With Memorix, you can configure your depot in a generic way. It will be possible to manage the locations of you objects up to box level.

We are developing various functionalities that will be highly relevant for museums. Depot management, acquisition and workflow will be part of the new version of Memorix. The registration of loans, insurance information and physical condition are not yet part of our roadmap but will be added if there is sufficient interest.

The world of digital heritage is in flux. Sharing and online publishing of collections and metadata has become increasingly important. More and more collections have been digitized and there is increased interest in linking collections to one another and to other sources. This calls for an appropriate collection management system. Memorix was designed with these new developments in mind. In addition, Memorix will be fully web-based and suitable for all platforms.

The new version of Memorix is certainly suitable for the collections from Memorix Maior. We can migrate the collections without major modifications.

As a user, you can do this yourself. Of course you do need to have the appropriate privileges.

Absolutely! Memorix is designed for use on all platforms and devices.

Our user research has shown that speed is very important when using a collection management system. From the start of development, we have therefore focused on the speed of the software. This has ensured that the new version of Memorix works extremely quickly and smoothly.

This is possible for media. To this end, we support the widely used S3 protocol. If you want to organize storage yourself, we can discuss this and draw up a plan with you.

We’re glad you asked! We have developed the new version of Memorix based on the principles of Linked Data. This means that linking to external thesauri and sources is built into the very core of the software. In fact, we believe that the use of existing thesauri contributes to the quality and capabilities of your metadata.
