Providing our membership network with valuable and actionable support requires us to handle hardware recommendations and requests with the highest priority. Our team performs in-depth research and testing to ensure hardware is reliable and durable enough to withstand the extreme conditions inspectors experience in the field. Our barcode scanning testing is a multi-step process which includes:

• Manufacturer Checks – including history, longevity, reputation
• Software Tests – including iOS and Android support, driver/library extra function support
• Hardware Tests – including 3ft/6ft drop durability, battery life
• Scanning Capability – including flexibility in scanning curved, faded or damaged barcodes
• Usability – including form factor assessment, storage and accessibility
