Label LIVE

Pros: Quick to set up - Total control of the output.
You can switch out the variables and upload via a spreadsheet
QR Codes.
Good selection of Icons and arrows etc.

Cons: No cons to mention; once you have a play around for a while, you quickly pick it up, and the programme works great.

Overall: I used it to label our shelving at Sparky Direct Electrical Online Wholesaler.
I was able to add QR codes to make the picking and packing process so much better.

Pros: Its easy and fast to use. I use this constantly on a daily basis and it offers me exactly what we need!

Cons: The only thing I dislike is that when you print any label, more than 1, you can not cancel the print mid printing! I have to print 100+ labels a day, and sometimes I accidentally print the labels twice when printing in a row and I am not able to cancel or stop the printing. Then I wasted 200 labels!

Overall: Its been exactly what we needed for the small growing business that we have! Would definitely recommend!

Pros: Intuitive and easy to work with it. Also print better than the native program of my zebra printer. That's all folks.

Cons: the price can be cheaper, but after all, considering what I wrote in the answer before, it's ok.

Overall: Is a good product, easy and it works very good. I work with it every day, and if someone ask what I use to print label, i can suggest for sure this product. Even if the price is a bit high for my opinion.

Pros: Can create our own layout, this is why we decided to use this product. Easy to use with excel and laying out where we want the line items to go.

Cons: There are really no cons, we have been using this for a year or less and haven't had any issues.

Overall: Overall works great for our labels & organizing them in a way we'd like them to be. Super easy to use and set up with our dymo printer.

Pros: All easy to use. Simple and good.

Cons: There is no cons about this software. Even a kid can use it for labels in a book.

Overall: One time use can easy to understand to to operate and use. Cheap in the market.

Pros: Is Apple compatible, easy to navigate, all options for the various UPCs' and the customer service is excellent, you will not be disappointed.

Cons: The license is only able to be used on a selected computer.

Overall: I would definitely recommend Label LIVE especially if your a medium to smaller company. Customer service is amazing, you get to speak directly with a person who know what and how to use the system and they respond quickly via email.

Pros: Automatic QR Code generation.
Generate templates for different uses.
Import info from excel sheets using custom fields.

Cons: Designing a label requires some skill.
Could be more user friendly with designing.

Overall: Once you design a template, it's easy to work with and get the job done.
It's worked great for generating labels to control inventory in my business.
This software plus a barcode scanner from amazon helped do inventory checks much easier.

Pros: A lot of features. Very convenient. Great way of automating label printing using Excel tables.
Ideal software for a good price (especially if you use it to print a lot of labels).

Cons: A bit strange way of storing files, but this is not affecting me at all.
Price may be a little high if you use it once a month.

Overall: For MacOS especially Label Live is the best, all other competitors are just not that good. Very easy to use and really straightforward.

Pros: Its interface is simple and easy to use. Layout is very basic. The price is less than many programs.

Cons: I would like some to be able to access my fonts or at least more. The print function is a little confusing.

Overall: Program works as advertised, easy to use and the cost is cheaper than other programs that I investigated.

Pros: Easy to use software and very useful. We use this to label our inventory on a daily basis and would recommend to anyone.

Cons: There are no cons to this software. It’s great for our business.

Overall: This software has helped improve the efficiency of our business by labeling our inventory. We use this daily and are very happy with it.

Pros: Easy to use, like the layout. I like being able to change the size of the label easily and the QR code is easy to apply.

Cons: I don't like having to pay a monthly fee I think the fee should be cheaper or free for businesses.

Overall: Pretty good, just wish there were more options and that the fee wouldn't be so high for business owners.

Pros: Easy to use, easy to download, no monthly fees, user friendly program in creating your personalized labels on any type.

Cons: You have to save different files if you create different type of labels.

Overall: I love this product and would recommend. It has features to make your labelling impeccable and easy.

Pros: Ease of use, easy to design labels. able to import my info. And save it.
One time cost.
Saves me time vs printing on address labels, using Word or Adobe.

Cons: It doesn't recognize my machine. I have an arkscan. It doesn't default to the label ( the only label) I use so have to constantly resize... and it's a pain especially after I have already designed and then it finally resizes which means I need to resize all my design.

Wish barcodes could be further reduced or manipulated in size
more font choices made obvious.

Overall: Overall it is so much better in the long run! I like the fact I can print out a bunch of labels in a manner of minutes and only needed to add the info to my excel and save it. finally getting better at saving under one file and manipulating the excel to my benefit.

Pros: The user interface is easy to navigate - customizing labels to the exact specifications needed is simple, even for a novice user. I have been able to produce custom GS1-128, racking location, and other custom labels as needed with little to no guidance. Updating data sets is a breeze, making non-repeating label generation a breeze for ongoing orders. Simply put, the actual software and usage is fantastic!

Cons: Each license is bound to your operating system, which can be a nuisance. It would be much better to bind per account or some other way; I had to put the software on a less-preferred machine due to a project's constraints and now it's stuck there.

Overall: I'm very happy with Label LIVE and would recommend it to others. Just ensure you are purchasing on a computer that can be dedicated to label creation as needed, that is the only downside. It's ultimately not a very big downside, and far outweighed by the advantages!

Pros: Works on Mac, the biggest “pro” for me.
Generates barcodes easily by entering UPC #.
Simple to design labels.

Cons: The software runs pretty slow, don’t click on anything 10 times thinking it’s unresponsive or you’ll get 10 windows opening over the course of several seconds.

Overall: I got LabelLive to create labels using a plant tag horticultural printer. I run a plant nursery. It was the only software I could find that works for Mac. Something I appreciate is the instant barcode generator - enter the UPC digits and it creates a barcode on the spot. Creating designs on tags is easy.

Pros: Very easy to use, very versatile, and works on Windows and mac os. Very user friendly and wide range of use. Awesome, truly awesome!

Cons: Not much I did not like really! I have used many other label software and this is by far the best. I wish more people knew.

Overall: Really good! Helps us run our business better and more efficiently and easily. I wish I had found it sooner.

Pros: The best part about this software is that there is no time wasted trying to figure out features. It just works. Designing labels has been made quick and easy, and pulling up previous designs was a clear consideration. I love that when I need to create more labels, I don’t have to search, they’re right there when I open the program. I also love that there are alignment aids when creating designs. Printing on a Rollo thermal printer, this software produces broad contrast with fine detail that other software for some reason couldn’t, even when printer settings were calibrated. It was very clear that this software was created by individuals who care about creating a quality product. Absolutely worth the purchase.

Cons: I genuinely have no complaints. There is not a feature that is missing, or a bug that needs to be addressed.

Overall: I would, without hesitation recommend this software to anyone who needs to produce labels. I appreciate that I don’t have to waste time looking for previous designs, and really appreciate how well thought out the design process is. Quick label creation, high quality prints, and easy use.

Pros: I love the functions and already made templates that it has. The many different sizes and the walk through instructions or tutorials that help you navigate through making what your needing for businesses. The availability of the sites functions make the jobs look so professional and saves me money so I don’t have to our source the jobs and I am able to save money with shipping since everything is done at home.

Cons: Maybe color options, really there is no cons that I can think of.

Overall: For small businesses getting started this setup is super user friendly. The money and time you save will be great and you will love the functionality of the software including the small amount of space on your computer it needs.

Pros: Ease of use and flexibility is the main thing that I would mention. I make multiple type of labels for a number of different printers and I get flawless results every time. The import data and variable function means you can leave making labels in Excel or Word behind.
I have tried a number of alternatives, free and paid and this is the only one I come back to and have recommended to others. The calibrate media function to align the software to your printers settings takes out the guesswork when you just want what is on the screen to appear on the label. Really really great stuff.

Cons: I wish I had found it earlier. I would like a bit more opportunity to set defaults for a greater range of settings (text alignment, font etc) but the ability to save multiple presets means this is not a major issue. Occasionally some of the areas that look like buttons require rollover to bring out a submenu drawer (calibrate media for example) but this is a bit nitpicky really.

Overall: Support has been very good and the range of docs and videos on the website make getting to grips with the more advanced features quite manageable. I use this pretty much daily and it is always up to the task.
Would recommend with no hesitations.

Pros: We use them for event badges, We setup 4 computers each with the business Enterprise license on them. And with this, we are able to successfully print check in and audit our badges for the event! While we understand, this is not exactly the same use case that would be used for everybody else. Most people would use the software for shipping or inventory control, we use this for actual badge names at our conference. And this software works very easily, and simply for all of our registration team to use.

Cons: Sometimes it is difficult when processing payment for multiple devices having multiple user emails versus just having one email where we are able to charge from one primary account with 3 licenses. One thing we would definitely love to see, is the ability to check a box or mark a cell with a specific letter in excel. Once a label has been successfully printed from the software, and it save the Excel sheet one other thing we would like to see integration with is a shared Excel sheet.

Overall: The support is definitely great, they are helpful. Billing issues are handled very quickly & efficiently.
