Online Auction Software
As an integral component of AssetWorks' Surplus Management Software, the Online Auction Module brings all the functionality you've seen on eBay right to your finger tips. With the click of a button, surplus property can be posted to an online auction. The familiar, easy-to-use format is designed to maximize exposure and the money you make selling surplus.
Our online auction software is completely integrated into the asset and surplus management systems. This means item descriptions and history automatically transfer to the posting, and all sales proceeds can be written back to the asset records.
The system includes every feature you'd expect to find in online auction software systems, and additional features geared for government and other vertical applications.
