We never tire of watching this–a scene from a big box store in Germany.

Somehow it doesn’t even matter that it was probably–OK obviously–staged by the checkout folks. The shoppers are apparently surprised and that’s enough for me. All of a sudden they are all connected in their surprise and enjoyment, and that’s the magic of the season. The real magic and the real meaning of the season. The connections between us all.

All of us here at Barcode Test hope all of you are ready and willing to discover this magic, meaning and message of the season. We send out our hope to everyone–yes everyone:

  • those who have never heard of us
  • those with whom we compete
  • those we have been privileged to serve, and…
  • those just discovering us for the first time

This hope is the future of humankind in all of its colors, languages, beliefs and expressions.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Barcode Test.

3db Barcode Testimonial

Our company (an advanced software company) recently worked with Barcode Test to source a barcode verifier.  Not long ago, we were awarded a contract requiring products to be marked with IUIDs in accordance with MIL-STD-130.  For that standard, marking labels must pass a verification test that evaluates many variables (contrast, size, clarity, syntax, modularity, and more).  After a thorough search, we reduced our options to a select few.

In our search for a verifier, the Axicon line caught our attention.  Barcode Test is our regional reseller for this product.   From the beginning, they were very prompt with their responses.  We ended up having a quick call with John Nachtrieb to go over our needs.  John was extremely easy to work with and provided a lot of great information.  He was very knowledgeable on the matter and was quick to offer up a demo unit (free of charge).

Upon receiving the demo verifier and testing it, a few questions arose.  John joined a call with us and answered all our questions.  Ultimately, the Axicon verifier wasn’t the best fit for us, so we shipped the demo back.  John was completely understanding.  A few weeks later, Barcode Test reached back out with another possible verifier for us to try.  While they didn’t sell that brand, they just wanted to help us find the best option that met our needs. They even offered to send us the unit that they have in-house to see if it worked to our liking. 

Barcode Test is truly a great company to work with.  Their service and willingness to help the customer are far beyond what you typically get from other companies.  They are experts in barcode quality assurance and seem willing to help in any way they can (even if that means not getting a sale and recommending another option that better fits the customer’s needs).  If anyone is in the market for barcode verification/scanning services or products, I would highly recommend giving Barcode Test a call.
