The Shipping Hardware Challenge
Your Software Depends on the Equipment at the Packing Station
Shipping and logistics workflows rely on physical hardware for scanning orders, weighing packages, printing labels, verifying shipments and moving inventory through facilities.
What software companies often end up managing
- Customers buying unsupported consumer printers
- Questions about printer resolution and label sizes
- Incorrect USB, Ethernet, Bluetooth or serial interfaces
- Scales that are not supported by the application
- Missing cables, power supplies and mounting hardware
- Different equipment at every customer location
- Discontinued products disrupting standard configurations
- Support cases caused by incomplete hardware kits
