# Collections

## Creating Collections

* Collections let you create and share custom lists of vendors and their products. They’re perfect for both public collaboration and private organization.
* **Public Collections**:
  * Showcase the vendors you love.
  * Plan who to meet at upcoming events like NADA.
  * Gather feedback from peers on vendors you’re considering.
* **Private Collections**:
  * Organize vendors you’re evaluating.
  * Track progress—schedule demos, complete evaluations, and finalize contracts.
* When logged in you can view each vendor, their products, demos stats and schedule a demo.
