SoftServ has announced the launch of BARQUODE, a software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform for barcode label design, according to a report by Big News Network.com . The move represents a significant shift for the company, which has historically focused on consumables such as barcode labels and ribbons.
BARQUODE is designed to streamline the creation and printing of barcode labels, catering to businesses in retail, logistics, and manufacturing. The cloud-based tool aims to reduce reliance on physical inventory by enabling digital label design and compliance with industry standards such as GS1. This transition from a product-based to a service-based model aligns with broader trends in the barcode industry, where software increasingly complements hardware.
For Philippine businesses, the launch of BARQUODE could simplify adherence to global barcode standards, particularly for companies exporting goods. The platform supports integration with existing enterprise systems, potentially reducing errors and improving supply chain visibility. SoftServ's pivot underscores the growing demand for modular, subscription-based tools in the local tech ecosystem.
