Book a demo

Urgently, I needed to transition to a new auction platform. Having worked with the same platform for about 8 years, I had significant questions about what was possible in the “auction world”. To address this, I signed up for demos with various providers. We quickly agreed that iRostrum was the right partner for us. Several factors were crucial for us, including:

  • User-friendliness of the seller's portal: Compared to our old platform, this is a significant step forward. With the "mass upload" feature for auctions, a sale can be online in no time.
  • Flexibility: The customisations we desired were implemented within a few weeks.
  • Accessibility of support: Questions and issues are addressed almost immediately. The support team also provides clear feedback.
  • Stability: Naturally, this is crucial, though it can't be tested in advance. However, it has not been an issue so far. Even when many clients log in simultaneously, the performance remains perfect.
  • Ongoing development: iRostrum continues to evolve and regularly introduces beneficial updates that we hadn't considered ourselves, while also incorporating our "wish list".
  • Pricing: The auction is only a small part of our core business. We primarily sell products at a loss here. Many other websites charge a percentage of turnover, whereas iRostrum operates on a fixed monthly cost basis.

All in all, we are very satisfied thus far and recommend this company to others.
