Frequently Asked Questions
What is barcode software?
What is barcode software?
A barcode scanner is a device that reads a barcode and sends the data into your computer, POS system, or tracking software. Instead of typing product numbers, SKUs, or asset tags manually, users can scan a barcode to capture information faster and with fewer errors. Barcode scanners use either a laser or camera-based scan engine to read the barcode, decode the data, and transmit it to a connected device over USB, Bluetooth, or wireless connection. Most modern barcode scanners can read both traditional 1D barcodes and newer 2D barcodes such as QR codes.
What's the difference between barcode generation software and barcode inventory software?
What's the difference between barcode generation software and barcode inventory software?
Barcode software creates, prints, or reads barcodes to help businesses manage inventory, track assets, label products, and run day-to-day operations more accurately. Some barcode software is designed specifically for barcode label creation and printing, such as Wasp’s free online Barcode Maker and the paid WaspLabeler +2D. Other barcode software uses barcode scanning to manage inventory levels, asset locations, check-in/check-out activity, audits, and reporting. Wasp Inventory and Wasp Asset combine both barcode label printing and barcode tracking features in the same system, allowing businesses to create barcode labels and track inventory or assets from one place. Wasp also provides the barcode scanners, barcode printers and barcode labels that work with them, all from one vendor with one U.S.-based support team.
Which Wasp software creates barcodes vs. tracks inventory and assets with them?
Which Wasp software creates barcodes vs. tracks inventory and assets with them?
Barcode generation software is designed primarily to create and print barcode labels in formats like UPC, EAN, Code 128, GS1, QR, and Data Matrix. Tools like Wasp’s free online Barcode Maker and the paid WaspLabeler +2D focus on label design, formatting, and printing. Barcode inventory software goes further by using barcode scanning to track inventory levels, manage stock locations, perform audits, monitor low inventory, and manage day-to-day inventory activity. Many barcode inventory and asset tracking software solutions, including Wasp Inventory for inventory management and Wasp Asset for asset tracking, also include built-in barcode label creation and printing features so businesses can create and track barcodes from the same system.
Does barcode software work without a barcode scanner, or do I have to buy hardware?
Does barcode software work without a barcode scanner, or do I have to buy hardware?
Wasp offers both dedicated barcode generation software and barcode-based inventory and asset tracking software. Wasp’s free online Barcode Maker creates barcodes and QR codes directly in your browser using common barcode formats such as UPC, EAN, Code 128, Code 39, and QR codes. It is ideal for one-off labeling or low-volume use. WaspLabeler +2D is designed for businesses that need ongoing barcode label printing, multiple label templates, and support for both 1D and 2D barcode formats. Wasp Inventory uses barcode scanning to track inventory levels, manage stock across locations, perform cycle counts and audits, monitor low inventory, and manage inventory from mobile devices. Wasp Asset uses barcode scanning to track fixed assets, manage check-in and check-out activity, perform audits, schedule maintenance, and manage work orders. Both Wasp Inventory and Wasp Asset also include built-in barcode label creation and printing features, allowing businesses to create and track barcodes from the same system.
Can I print barcode labels from Wasp software on my existing printer, or do I need Wasp barcode printers?
Can I print barcode labels from Wasp software on my existing printer, or do I need Wasp barcode printers?
It depends on how you plan to use the software. Wasp’s free Barcode Maker and WaspLabeler +2D create and print barcode labels without requiring a barcode scanner. They’re designed for barcode label creation and printing. Wasp Inventory and Wasp Asset each include a companion mobile app for iOS and Android devices, allowing businesses to scan barcodes, perform audits, manage check-in/check-out activity, and complete inventory or asset tasks using a smartphone or tablet. For higher-volume operations like warehouses, manufacturing environments, or multi-site facilities, many businesses use dedicated Wasp barcode scanners and mobile computers for faster scanning and improved accuracy. Wasp provides the software, scanners, mobile computers, barcode printers, barcode labels, and asset tags from one vendor, so when issues come up, you work with one U.S.-based team instead of multiple vendors.
How long does it take to set up barcode software for a small business?
How long does it take to set up barcode software for a small business?
Yes. Wasp’s free Barcode Maker and WaspLabeler +2D can print barcode labels to most standard office printers using paper label sheets, which works for low-volume or office-based labeling. For higher-volume printing or labels that need to hold up in warehouses, manufacturing environments, healthcare settings, or outdoor conditions, dedicated Wasp barcode printers are usually the better option. Wasp barcode printers support both direct thermal printing for shipping labels, receipts, and short-term labeling, and thermal transfer printing for durable barcode labels and asset tags designed to last longer in demanding environments. Wasp offers desktop, industrial, and receipt barcode printers, along with Wasp barcode labels and asset tags designed to work with them.
Should I use barcode software or inventory management software for my warehouse?
Should I use barcode software or inventory management software for my warehouse?
Setup time depends on the product and your data. For Barcode Maker or WaspLabeler +2D, most users can start creating and printing labels immediately after using the tool or installing the software. For Wasp Inventory or Wasp Asset, setup time depends on how much inventory or asset data needs to be imported, how organized your existing records are, and how many locations, departments, or users you’re managing. Many organizations can begin tracking within a week, especially if they have accurate data ready to import or a straightforward check-in and check-out process with a few hundred items to track. More complex setups involving multiple locations or integrations with existing systems may take longer.
When should I choose on-premise barcode software vs. cloud-based?
When should I choose on-premise barcode software vs. cloud-based?
Cloud-based versions (Wasp Inventory – Cloud and Wasp Asset – Cloud) are the default for most businesses due to easier setup, automatic updates, mobile access from any internet-connected device, and U.S. data residency. On-premise is the right call for IT teams running behind their own firewall, organizations with strict network segmentation or air-gapped environments, and sectors with compliance mandates that rule out SaaS, including government, defense, healthcare under specific regulations, and some manufacturing environments. Wasp offers both with a documented migration path between them, so the choice today doesn’t lock you out of changing later.
