Software Development

BARCODE.CO.UK has two major core competencies;

• Software
• Barcode technology

Software

We supply software from £349 per year (low risk) to one person businesses.

Reliable software delivered quickly and cheaply.

Our software is also flexible (features can be added quickly, or settings configured). We make our software so that it is easily maintained (changes can be made quickly for FREE).

Our developers have 25 years experience of reliable software development.

You benefit from the speed that pre-existing solutions can offer, and from the know-how that speeds up any completely new development.

As well as strong programming skills, our developers keep up-to-date with the latest frameworks - so that they can be exploited if suitable (or left well alone).

The speed of development means lower cost for you.

Barcode technology

Our software systems are expert at doing all the normal stuff - like; storing data, displaying information, processing business transactions, etc. - they are also efficient and flexible when dealing with barcode technology (reading and printing barcodes) - tricks of the trade is a simple way of expressing it; learnt from years of practical experience.

For example, some systems may happily print a label of a certain design on the day it is installed - but our experience allows us to offer system that allow designs to change in minutes (not days) - flexibility. Later you can also add features that you didn't even know you needed when you bought the software - and maybe because your customer's needed something different.

Even if a few years later you change the label printer model, or the portable barcode reader - there's no drama - you don't suddenly find nothing works; or even if it is a total shift of technology - you don't have to scrap the whole 'system' (maybe replace a small component). Although you are FREE to cancel, or replace any or all of the system at any time - as easy as getting a different pay-as-you-go phone.

Some things can seem trivial - our people know how big a label needs to be to actually fit the barcode information you want to put on it - it might seem a simple task - but we get lots of customers coming to us for labels, after having been supplied systems with labels that simply don't fit their stock code numbers - this can waste days.

We know the pitfalls and the costs of mistakes - like printing barcodes nobody can read (even £million nuclear power plants have done this - and banks).

We recently printed labels for;

• Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK) - one of the biggest distribution centre in Europe (10,000's of locations).
• Euro Fighter - for jet fighter.
• Motorola - for training days.
• as well as for; Police Forces, Telecommunications Companies, Grocers, Universities, ...

but usually we provide the systems to allow people in business to reliably produce their own labels - cheaply and efficiently.

For example, a person in a small company of 4 employees, had to start printing 100,000 labels on the day we provided a system - they had never seen a thermal barcode label printer before (and this was done without even a visit from ourselves - because they didn't need it).
