Challenge

What challenges did you face in your workflow that made you look into software-based barcode scanning?

  • Company faced the critical task of implementing efficient scanning capabilities for train tickets utilizing Aztec codes conforming to the UIC-918 standard specification
  • Existing solutions presented significant operational obstacles:
    • Previously available libraries had fallen into deprecation status, making them unreliable for modern implementation needs
    • The built-in recognition system within Expo camera demonstrated consistently poor performance, characterized by slow processing times and frequent failures in accurate code detection
    • An extensive market search revealed a concerning lack of actively maintained and properly supported scanning solutions that met their requirements

Solution

Why was barKoder chosen?

After careful evaluation, the company successfully integrated barKoder SDK into their workflow, which delivered the following advantages:

  • Streamlined implementation process with minimal technical overhead and rapid deployment capabilities
  • Comprehensive documentation suite complemented by detailed integration guides and extensive technical resources
  • Dedicated support team providing prompt assistance and professional guidance throughout the implementation journey

Result

  • Despite encountering initial timeline setbacks during the solution search phase, the team achieved a successful application launch that met all requirements
  • Demonstrated significant improvements in scanning performance metrics, including enhanced speed and superior recognition accuracy
  • Created a robust technological foundation that positions both companies for continued collaboration and expansion into future application development initiatives
  • "Fast scanning, fast implementation and great support… all hallmarks of a good software provider"
