The auction software for professionals. Everything for professional auctions . Run all kind of auctions for all kind of products and services. Millions of bids are processed each year.
We particularly loved the automated winner text notification and giving them the opportunity to self check-out/pay, making it all so much faster and easier.
They do offer to import for you at extra cost. They must have had bad experiences.
This year we used everything they offer, I think. It was the best experience and we are so excited with the outcome of our event, even though it was virtual it was amazing.
It was difficult for us to figure out which of the pull down sections to use. Such as "I know I saw that somewhere, but where.
Tech Support is Outstanding: The event coaches are very friendly and incredibly helpful. They help you get started, make suggestions along the way, and they are there to wrap up afterwards as well.
Sometimes it was difficult to navigate or figure out exactly what functions lied where in the platform. It took a bit of digging around before I got comfortable with using it.
Silent Auction Pro is very easy to use and has a wonderful auction catalog set up that allows for multiple quality images and formats. Their support staff is amazing and very helpful.
The only downside I see is the appearance on the phones. It looks old and basic compared to what it can actually do.
We have been using it for our fine art auctions. Both the live auctions and the webauctions are running very fast and our bidders are happy with the easy to use interface.
We were struggling with our old software for the auction room and we also wanted to pick up bids from the internet.
It is stable, fast and it now supports all languages so we can use it also for our Arabic customers.
When the auction is finished it will invoice the highest bidders and generates an XML file we import in our ERP software. When we have a question or a problem they respond quickly and solve it.
It is very flexible and provides a good solution.
Good software easy to use for both bidder and admin.
Speaker 1: My name is Sierra, and I'm the Director of Family Support and Operations at Lafayette Preparatory Academy. We are a school of 55 staff members and 400 students, and I give Silent Auction Pro a five. Before Silent Auction Pro, we actually used a lot of paper and pencil bid sheets, and we also used some PayPal donations, but we just noticed with the bid sheets we weren't getting the return on items whenever we were doing our school trivia night. And also, it was really hard to get advertising out with just our PayPal Donate button, so we decided to switch. There were a lot of reasons why we decided to go to with Silent Auction Pro. To start off, it was one of the most affordable platforms that we found. We researched numerous different options, and we just kept coming back to Silent Auction Pro. It was this one-stop shop. We had our bid sheets, people could buy their tickets online, we could do online ticket sales for raffles. And then the thing that really sold us was whenever they upgraded it and allowed you to have campaigns, so not only could we use it for our big event, but we were able to use it for little fundraisers throughout the year. It has just boosted our sales so much. We saw it the first year, and it's continued every year after. Silent Auction Pro is really user-friendly. There were definitely some just tips and tricks at the beginning that took a little bit of getting used to, but we've been with Salem Auction Pro I think for five years now. They took our feedback really well. And so every year there would be an FAQ page and it would have those things on there. So once we got over the learning curve that first year, it has been really easy. I would say if you're thinking about getting Silent Auction Pro, you should just do it. Again, we saw our profits increase almost by a full half the first year that we used it. Our people that are at our events love it. The biggest thing that I can say is, when you're using it, just make sure you take lots of clear pictures because the picture features on Silent Auction Pro are wonderful, and that's what's going to help you raise money.
