Scandit Keyboard Wedge 4+

Great App Wrong Audience

I downloaded The App to allow scanning directly into our MRP system running on a terminal server as a remote session on my personal iPad 10.3 iOS v11.2. Did save time accurately entering part number detail into the appropriate field avoiding key entry errors. The App is fast and accurate. The camera is a little too hot and will capture any barcode in its wide field of view but you can get used to it by covering up barcodes that are near. It’s clear they spent a lot of time developing the App for speed and accuracy. As a keyboard wedge selecting the scanner uses the usual iOS Keyboard “Globe” symbol to quickly change keyboards.

For some reason the App is boutique priced on subscription minimum 50 annual licenses for $2,999. This must be part of a larger corporate solution. Nice App wrong audience.

Hi,

sorry for the inconvenience. You can setup the area where barcodes are detected on the dashboard at scandit.com. This should solve your problem with the scanning of the wrong barcode.

Unfortunately we are currently not offering any smaller subscription tiers, but please contact me directly at support@scandit.com. This goes directly to my inbox. I'll do my best to make sure that you can continue using our product.

Best,

Good product. Specific audience.

This is a great product. Scans quickly and efficiently. The only downside is that it picks up barcodes TOO quickly so you simply have to be careful to separate barcodes.

However, this company goes through great lengths to never mention a price. The minimum required purchase makes this app a waste of time. It doesn’t matter if this is the best app in the world if the company I work for is not going to approve the cost.

No personal licenses? Only use for 14 days?

The app performs good, but I contacted the developer to but it for good but the only sell it in bulks of 50 for US$3000 ... ridiculous expensive for just a barcode scanner... the developer should have another sales strategy because the app is good but not for 3k
