I like it.

Review by Paul on 2/19/2018

It's very simple, but I had to find directions on YouTube to create multiple barcodes at one time. That part wasn't straight-forward.

Thank you for the great product

Review by Mike on 7/18/2017

I’m very happy with the barcode generator program. I tried the demo and thought it worked well so I purchased the package which gave me more options. I was looking for a data matrix barcode generator and IDAutomation has provided!

No Problem

Review by Ratnam on 7/9/2014

The product is very easy to use and does just what we require. We have had no problems with it so far and would happily recommend it to others.

Happy, Overall

Review by David on 6/19/2014

Overall we are happy with the software but we would have preferred if it had the ability to save the bar codes as EPS files and other more scalable type image formats so that the image resolution would be better when inserted into labels and other documents. Saving as PDF might also help for keeping the text quality. I would give the product 3.5 stars, and would have given it 4 to 4.5 stars if it was able to save in EPS and PDF formats.

The Perfect License for our Client

Review by Rachel on 2/20/2014

We purchased the IDAutomation Linear Barcode Image Generator for Mac to print a batch of tickets as a one-off job, and it was very easy! The Sales staff helped me out tremendously when trying to refund the wrongly downloaded software and helping with our licensing needs. I would really like to thank them for all of their help. It made a big difference on how the process could have went and discovering the perfect license for our client's budget/need.
