**BARCODE VS RFID **

**LIMITATIONS OF BARCODE TECHNOLOGY**

**![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/ROx2UKZXi2rQqrQfNuWfiRxbi1QtdTzzg_jOcmDh5GkLL5ea-2pPi4uRGYP63sSGjtjkjJ6_BO-BHE-MHx23Skl0z_JCSuWL08ZyqbJRnwkAbwggZQup-svQfPzSxK4GveGPP51BUdPr4yBQEuj_JnbFLc2htn4bgTKoWfO8R_ATlByWeRAQaNdrqH1iHQ)**

- Scanning requires line of sight & items can only be counted one at a time 
- Products with variants have the same printed barcode
- Items can be accidentally scanned twice or missed altogether, causing inaccurate inventory
- Infrequent audits are common due to the labor-intensive nature & associated costs

- Audits often require hiring additional staff to complete
- Audits can be disruptive to operations & are therefore performed during outside hours

- Data becomes progressively less accurate & reliable due to these inventory inaccuracies

**RFID TECHNOLOGY****![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/wPWhPvMILMFiIQV14i9Do45QMQby9oexf6ja8ZrwmAl4lWdoSFZmlh0CboESvGfsSFE30X0kVrNuR806sn73QIHxTb_1PlMLuYLyaO-Po0fMbz92mkK30PZpZyijs4q6wp8hQuR1KkuuvmG7_RCYdzAS6RYh8KArFOXrxL12x2W5KF-k7XzRolWPYYgsAg)**

- Items can be scanned without line of sight, while still in boxes, on racks & out of reach
- Count hundreds of items per second
- Every item is serialized allowing traceability from manufacturer to customer
- Tags act as a sensor & store data
- Eliminates human error
- Ability to count tags literally through walls
- Track & verify to the item level
- Perform audits as frequently as desired due to the speed & ease of counting 
- Search & find missing items with the Simple RFiD app & handheld reader
- Track expiration dates, born dates, lot numbers, PO numbers & more on the item level

**SOLUTION**

Via a cloud-hosted solution, SImple RFID eliminates the complexity often associated with implementing RFID technology. As an end-to-end solutions provider, we integrate with industry-leading RFID hardware, as well as offer the best performing RFID tags & labels for a contiguous solution.  

**3 REQUIRED ELEMENTS IN A COMPLETE RFID SOLUTION**

1.  RFID Labels and/or Asset Tags 
2.  Hardware
3.  Software & Mobile Application

RFID LABELS & ASSET TAGS

RFID labels contain a microchip & antenna which can be counted & identified remotely. Labels come in many shapes & sizes for different use cases & applications.

Other applications such as tagging electronics, equipment, tools, furniture, linens, etc., require the use of RFiD asset tags. These also come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes & materials depending on the intended use. These tags can be encoded using the Simple RFiD app & a handheld reader.

 

HARDWARE

             ![hardware (2000 × 500 px)](https://support.simplerfid.com/hubfs/hardware%20(2000%20%C3%97%20500%20px).png)                                                

Required hardware includes a RFID enabled printer to print & encode the labels, as well as a RFID reader (handheld or fixed) to collect the data encoded in the labels. 

**SOFTWARE & MOBILE APP  **

We offer a cloud hosted software solution, & a mobile app available on Android & iOS to collect data, as well as a web application to configure printers & fixed readers.
