Rugged. Reliable. Really Easy-To-Use Barcode Scanners for Warehouses

The warehouse is a fast-moving and hard-floored environment. This entails a need for sturdy equipment, but the good news is that your need for ruggedness does not mean workers are forced to struggle with brick-heavy keyboard-wielding devices.  
The four Tasklet bestsellers come with different degrees of ruggedness, yet they are all comfortable to carry and handle. Large, high-resolution touchscreens with built-in pop-up keyboards make them perfect for working with data. And although being designed for handiness, they still offer quick and powerful barcode scanning. Let’s take a look...

Sim Card or No Sim Card? That’s the Question

One of the key questions businesses face when it comes to data registration is whether to opt for a SIM card configuration or not. While Wi-Fi can be perfectly reliable for data transactions within a particular location, it may not work outside the premises, and cellular data networks can be necessary for uninterrupted, real-time data registration. If you are in doubt about whether or not you'll need a SIM card in your choice of scanner, feel free to reach out to us.
