Software Developer Paper & Forest Products Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Label Live, Simple and Powerful" February 18, 2026 5.0 Label LIVE has been easy to use since we first started with it 3 years ago, and it's only improved with every update. The support is top-notch, and they've even added some of our suggestions to the programs mere days later! Pros Label LIVE is incredibly simple to integrate with all of our production systems. We're able to print our inventory labels seconds after scanning new products through the powerful HTTP connections. Cons There are a few minor glitches that occasionally interrupt the printing process, like design elements shifting slightly, but they can be fixed in a few seconds. Alternatives considered [PrintNode Connector PowerTool](https://www.capterra.com/p/10027628/PrintNode-Connector-PowerTool/) Reason for choosing Label LIVE Ease of use, licensing system, price, seemed more capable Review Source NW Nick W. owner operator Farming Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "The last label software you ever will buy" April 22, 2026 5.0 This software can do it all. From thermal labels to sheet printed labels. The software is very intuitive, straight forward and simple to use. There are tons of powerful features including some very cool ways to integrate spreadsheets. Everything updates live on the screen as you make changes. With the ability to script variable there really is no limit to getting exactly what you want on a label. It integrated really nicely with my 2 thermal printers, with a very short learning curve to get them printing flawlessly. I would highly recommend this software to others. Pros The developer is active and fixes bugs and addresses feature request really fast. For a one time forever licenses fee you cant compare the quality of software you are getting. Cons There really is no full detailed user manual. There is some guides online that get you pointed in the right direction, but lots of features found in the software you just have to play with to see what they do.

Owner Retail Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Finally, One Label Platform for All Our Printers" August 31, 2026 5.0 Label LIVE has taken something that used to be unnecessarily frustrating and made it simple. For a small business where I’m constantly switching between operations, purchasing, production, bookkeeping, marketing, and everything else, having all of our labels managed through one cloud-based platform is a huge time saver. Instead of dealing with four printers and four different pieces of clunky software, I have one system and one central source of product information. It has made our labeling workflow much more organized and professional. Pros As a small business owner — a.k.a. chief cook and bottle washer — I’m constantly juggling a dozen different things. We have four different thermal printers, and I used to spend way too much time cursing the clunky software that came with each one. Label LIVE gives me one central platform for all of them. I can keep our product information in one cloud-based spreadsheet, have it feed directly into Label LIVE, and print what I need without bouncing between different programs. The label design capabilities are also fantastic — flexible, intuitive, and capable of producing really professional-looking labels. Cons There is a little bit of setup involved in getting each printer and label format dialed in exactly the way you want it. Once everything is set up, though, it works extremely well, and I really don’t have many complaints. Review Source LC Lawrence C. pres Accounting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Review" July 2, 2023 4.0 excellent support Pros ability to make QR codes on the fly and the ability to use multiple thermal printers.

Executive Director Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best Label Creator" August 10, 2026 5.0 Very satisfied and always got quick response whenever I have problems with the app. Simple to operate so anyone can do it. Pros Easy to use, any beginners can easily create labels, I use it for my supermarket price tag, super handy. Had problems with my license and \[sensitive content hidden\] always replied and assist me. They even have video to show you how to use it. Thank you for creating such a beautiful app. Cons Subscription can be steep in price but I only pay one time subscription because I think it is going to be useful for many years to come.

Pros Incredibly powerful and well thought out software, allows for simple to complex usage while maintaining the user experience. Excellent support, increidbly well presented website and overall brand. Cons Some of the rollover menus in the UI dont stick around long enough, or are buggy across OS platforms.

Job well done. You've taken an industry that previously had half baked products and made it a joy to work with. Support has been extremely responsive and helpful. Pros Label Live is leading the industry in label software. It isn't even close. I've previously worked with Dymo and Zebra products and Label Live is on a whole other level. Their label design process is so simple and clean. The extensive barcode support is phenomenal. The amount of integration options allows for nearly every circumstance. Cons Absolutely nothing. They've thought through this product extremely well. I am completely satisfied. It is a great product. Review Source GM Gabriela M. Entrepreneur Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "exceptional customer service" April 9, 2026 5.0 I was truly amazed by the print quality I achieved with this program, thanks to its versatile tools. I tried other programs, but none delivered the same level of quality, which is why I decided to buy it, and I wholeheartedly recommend it. Request your free trial and see for yourself. Besides the added value of Caylan's excellent customer service, few business owners still dedicate the necessary time to their companies, and that undoubtedly makes all the difference. Pros many functions, easy to use, compatible with many printers, compatible with Mac, value for money And the best part is the customer service. Cons So far I can't say I have a con. Although, thinking about it, the downside I could mention is that they're spoiling me with good customer service hahaha Review Source CZ Carolina Z. Founder and fashion design Textiles Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Easy to use and exactly what I needed!" September 11, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Label LIVE has been excellent. It is easy to use, reliable, and has made designing and printing my labels much simpler. I am very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend it. Pros What I liked most was how easy it was to design my labels and set up the printer. The store where I bought the printer recommended several applications for printing my labels, but I only ended up wasting time. At least for me, they didn’t work and caused a lot of frustration. I found Label LIVE while searching online, and I’m very happy that I purchased it. Cons There is nothing I dislike or would change. Based on my specific needs and printer, however, I would appreciate the option to select a printing speed below 25.4 mm/sec, if technically possible. I believe a slower speed could produce a darker result with thermal-transfer printing. This is simply a suggestion; otherwise, I am completely satisfied! Review Source CG Chris G. Engineer Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The only label software you should consider (especially on Mac)" December 16, 2025 5.0 Pros Label Live makes it very easy to layout a label design and map data to the labels. Flexible barcoding support, fine-tuning alignment, and custom label sizes all make this a standout product. Cons I have a niche use case where I want to print sequential data on a single label, but it doesn't seem to support this. Review Source MK Mario K.

CEO Entertainment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent Label Software" September 15, 2022 5.0 Really just a great program. Quick and easy to pick up, worked right away. Pros I tried many. I hoped that one of the softwares that came from the makers of my label printers would work for my needs. Their basic features and functions didn't even work properly. This software is really what up to date, current/modern software for label printing should be like. It does everything I need, I can't imagine what else you would want. Cons Absolutely nothing. It worked exactly as it should.

The software is very intuitive, I was able to learn what to do easily Pros Label Live was a godsend when I found it. It's so simple to use and does the job I need it to do.

Me Think Tanks Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great software!" January 2, 2026 5.0 We picked up a label printer to help make sending this year's Christmas cards a bit more fun, and it certainly did! Pros Very easy to use: it detected my printer and which paper was loaded right away, and I was printing my first label in no time. The interface is very intuitive, even when importing batches of addresses from a spreadsheet. Cons Can't think of much to improve, does what it does very well. Perhaps a minor nit: when a label has been designed for a specific label size but a different one is loaded, having a dialog noting the fact, rather than just showing the label contents with the new label dimensions. Review Source EC Elizabeth C. Owner Entertainment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Label Live Review" February 6, 2025 5.0 I hade one question and they answered it swiftly. Great service and great program. Pros I can use it for various codes that fit my specific label size. Cons Nothing yet! So far it's great!

Pros I liked the practicality of how the work is done and the company's concern to make work easier for its employees by making codes easier in different ways and facilitating product identification. Cons I believe that the company does not need to put a lot of effort into product designs, and focus on information.

Owner/President Fine Art Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Support is important to your business as much as your software. " December 10, 2019 5.0 Below is my review of Label.Live. I wrote the review because of the great support I received from your agent Caylan L.. Above and beyond support. Label.Live has changed the way I do business. Throughout the year my taxidermy shop receives many animals from hunters, roadkills, teachers, museums, etc.. All of them need to be checked in properly for our tracking, and also logged & tagged according to State and Federal laws. I enter client information into Excel, “The State/Fed. Record Book”, and Label.Live automatically formats tags in their software using the data. The tags are affixed to the animal the entire time it is in the shop until it is delivered to the client. I print the tags using a DYMO 450 Twin Turbo. It was VERY cumbersome before Label.Live when people would bring multiple animals that all needed hand written tags. Additionally, Label.Live easily allows me to incorporate licensing and other data that law enforcement officers would want to see if my records were audited. It is very important my software works quickly and efficiently since I haven’t a secretary. Thank you for all of the great support I have received and the software! I would recommend your software to any of my friends or colleagues. All the best ~ James Lee, Nature Coast Taxidermy, LLC" Pros The efficiencies it created in my daily routine along with the control it gave me in assigning and logging record #'s over my employees.

Director Printing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Amazing Label Designer" June 24, 2021 5.0 \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] has been exceptional at sorting this little issue with the licence and I have to say LIGHTNING FAST!! Could not be happier with the service to date. Thank you, David Franklin Pros When researching for professional label software, as a small company we were quite surprised that the two large contenders in the label arena were very expensive and involved yearly fees, maintenance contracts etc etc etc, which amounted to VERY EXPENSIVE! for a newly established small business. When I came across LABEL LIVE, I was sceptical at first as the price for the pro version was very reasonable and did not involve complicated maintenance contracts and yearly subscriptions. I initially paid for the home version to see how the label software would suit our EPSON C300 label printer and DTM FOIL printer and it performed all the functions needed to create great looking professional labels. I upgraded to the PRO version a few days after! Cons The only small gripe and really it is small is the transferring of the licence if you need to reinstall windows on your existing computer, however not a big issue.
