A Socket Mobile Case Study
BSS Business Software Solutions GmbH, a company that develops software for the timber and veneer industries, faced a challenge with inefficient barcode scanning. Their customers were using Apple device cameras to scan veneer bundle barcodes, which was time-consuming, failed on poorly printed codes, and led to manual entry errors. Their fixed iPad terminals also lacked the flexibility needed for scanning in a harsh warehouse environment.
Socket Mobile provided the solution with its SocketScan S700 series for the fixed iPad terminals and the DuraSled DS800 series for mobile iPod Touch devices. This allowed for freedom of movement and efficient inventory checks. The result for BSS's customers was the ability to scan more barcodes, which drastically reduced human error, saved time, and made warehouse processes more effective. BSS has since enabled 12 of its iOS applications for use with Socket Mobile scanners.
