Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It was relatively easy to transfer our old labels to the new software. It has many tools to utilize that enable making labels easy.
  • Easy product to install and setup. Very user friendly and powerful labeling solution. Administrative duties straight forward to accomplish. Very scalable as well.
  • Easy to produce labels and make new ones. We use this in an apparel design department where we need consistency across multiple vendors. Licensing portal is easy to use.
  • Makes amazing labels with great clarity and detail. The separate form page is nice if you have a master label with a few changes you can put in a database.
  • My company had Labelview 8 and needed to upgrade to CODESOFT in order to meet our needs of our customers. The transition from Labelview 8 to CODESOFT was easy and I was able to do it in just a few hours. A few years later my company needed to transition to the newer version of CODESOFT and once again I was able to do it myself and with ease.

Cons

  • Our software seems to crash way too often when making labels and no one really knows what is wrong with the software.
  • Still searching for negatives. Works well in a factory/plant environment.
  • Product is now software as a service (SAAS), so we have to pay annually. We had a legacy product and our labels had to be re-created.
  • Upgrading to a new version, the last time I did I had to open each label and save it with a few tweaks. We have a lot of labels. We also have a 3 user network license. But if someone opens 3 different Codesoft programs instead of using tabs on the same PC, it counts as a new user
  • The downside is that without a yearly maintenance fee the up date to the CODESOFT software is at a cost to the customer.
