Dynamsoft customer support is great and the product seems to work well on native mobile.

Pros

The barcode reader is super easy to implement. There are plenty of examples and documentation. The support team is top tier and responds very quickly. Overall, we have been using this product for years without any issues.

Cons

The licensing is fairly complex and in most cases requires a check-in with the dynamsoft servers. An auto renew feature would be nice. Having to upgrade the license for each new version of the SDK is also a little frustrating.

Reasons for choosing Dynamsoft Barcode Reader

The Dynamsoft reader was much more reliable and feature rich.

In Nomeco we build a web app for our customers, so they can scan their recieved goods with an iPad.

Pros

The integration is very easy and the customer support is also great.

Cons

It's maybe not particularly the software, but we have customers that experience issues with the connection to the scanner on their iPad. Customers Support is still working on what we can do to eliminate this small problem.

A+ overall experience! Our developers were able to quickly integrate this with our existing codebase, and our users love it.

Pros

We initially used the JavaScript solution in our PWA (progressive web app), which worked great. It allowed our web app to use a mobile device's camera to scan licenses & import all data into our systems. After initial setup, it worked flawlessly for our users, and was simple, intuitive and required zero training. Our web app has grown & morphed into an Ionic Hybrid app that is available in the iOS App Store & Google PlayStore. Although the initial javascript implementation still worked, we upgraded to the Capacitor version to gain additional controls over the device's camera functionality, such as using the flash's torch feature. This helped users to easily scan drivers licenses, even in low light situations.

Cons

As with any new software component, there are integration issues. However, with the help of Dynamsoft' support team, we were able to quickly overcome these issues, as well as get our questions answered in a timely basis.

Reasons for choosing Dynamsoft Barcode Reader

The demo app on Dynamsoft.com was easy to use & we were quickly able to demonstrate it's value to our stakeholders. The contracts & support departments have been fantastic as well, making it an easy decision to continue using this product.

once established in our platform, the product works extremely well and is very reliable with no reported defects post-deployment.

Pros

For our end consumer of the associated product, the ease of use is extremely important. While in the past there was some level of difficulty in upgrading the established product to the new release version, at least Dynamsoft technical staff were able to assist the development team in getting the upgraded version incorporated and functional within our product.

Cons

The coordination of the licensing and upgrading to new release versions should be smoother for Dynamsoft customers.
