BarcodeShack recommends that you work with a Value-Added Reseller (VAR) who offers a variety of inventory control solutions rather than selecting an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) who is compelled to force-fit your requirements into their limited product suite. BarcodeShack is a VAR and we carry multiple solutions that are designed for a variety of inventory situations. We possess the knowledge and experience to understand your organization's needs and will match those needs and advise you on the selection, purchase & implementation of the appropriate solution.
