Barcode Tracking Software Gives Glimpse of Realities of IoT

We know that the Internet of Things is a forthcoming reality, which is part of what makes barcode tracking software so important. The term “Internet of Things” describes a world in which nearly every item in one’s household or working environment is coded for identification, and in fact, many of these items will be able to communicate with one another. It may be hard to get one’s head around that concept, but experts say it will bring more efficiency to the way we work and live. Are they right? Time will tell. In the meantime, however, companies are implementing barcode tracking software on a more localized basis, using asset tags to identify, track and manage their fixed assets.

Regardless of whether a company is large or small, and regardless of the industry in question, the benefits of barcode tracking software are many: reduced or eliminated theft and loss, better communication among stakeholders, more accountability among staff, a savings of time and money, and reduction or even elimination of mistakes. If you’re not sure whether or not your organization really needs barcode tracking software, ask yourself if you’re able to locate any of your assets on a moment’s notice. Do you have a way of determining the current condition of any item? Can you access its comprehensive maintenance history and schedule service if it’s time? Do you know the identity of the staff member who currently has the asset and when it’s due back? Do you know if its next scheduled service is under warranty? And how about your inventory – do you have an accurate and efficient means of determining your stock levels and avoiding overstock and sell-outs? All of those details and much more are within your reach within seconds if you choose the right barcode tracking software.

Asset Panda provides a turnkey solution not just to asset tag production, but also an asset and inventory tracking. This barcode tracking software is accessible to clients via free mobile iOS and Android apps that sync with the cloud, so their asset and inventory data is served up in real time, anytime. Additionally, Asset Panda’s brand-new online store, Buy Asset Tags, enables clients to order a variety of durable and reliable asset tags and labels that suit their specific needs.

With Asset Panda, it’s very simple to upload new assets. In fact, you won’t need a separate handheld barcode scanner, as the app includes a built-in mobile scanner. You won’t need any additional hardware, either, which ultimately saves you money. Additionally, Asset Panda clients are entitled to an unlimited number of users at no additional fee, which helps clients close the communication loop among all of their stakeholders and increase accountability throughout their respective organizations. Once you’ve uploaded a new asset, you can add voice notes, documents, photos and/or videos to your records. The app’s robust features are completely customizable; Asset Panda was founded on the philosophy that clients should be able to track their assets any way they want. From the fields, columns and unlimited actions (notifications, alerts, etc.) to the calendar feature, security settings and more, clients have complete control over how their data is organized and displayed. From an inventory perspective, Asset Panda gives companies a powerful, yet simple tool for tracking and maintaining inventory levels so they can make more informed financial decisions. Whether you’re managing assets or inventory, everything you need is as near as your smartphone or tablet when you choose Asset Panda. Best of all, Asset Panda is incredibly intuitive and requires no special training to master.

Asset Panda is so flexible that it can be configured to whatever a client needs. Working with a positive behavioral intervention and support center, Asset Panda created a system in which students could scan barcodes and earn points for good behavior, which were then redeemable for various items.
