Often times here at DSD, we hear from resellers or Sage 100 & Sage 100cloud users:
“I’m looking at the DSD / ScanForce Multi-Bin Products and I don’t know which one to choose?”
Great Question!

But let’s put that on pause for a moment and talk about  DSD / ScanForce Multi-Bin in general.

When our development team told us that ScanForce could search 1,000,000 records in under a second, we were intrigued, but also a little skeptical. After all, there’s a lot that goes into the process behind the scenes, and how do you even measure something that takes less than a second? Had they actually tried it?

That’s when they told us about the Million Record Challenge.

When you’re using barcode technology with Sage 100 to scan items, there is a lot happening behind the scenes to make sure the correct item is retrieved. But if you’re using ScanForce with our sophisticated proprietary mobile data capture technology, you’d never know it, no matter how many items you may have.

You’re lost. Nothing looks familiar. You look around as the panic starts to grow. Bright colors and a constant din surround you as you drift into what feels like an out of body experience. A child screams and you’re jolted back to the present moment.

In a world where the concept of Mobility grows each minute, you need a solution that provides true Mobility. Not being ‘tethered’, physically or by a requirement for a connection, is a critical aspect of a solution that allows you to be completely mobile.

At ScanForce, our service to our customers goes beyond just providing technology solutions. We partner with our customers to share best practices we've seen over the years for warehouse efficiency as a whole.

Previously on our blog, we shared tips on Key Considerations for Effective Warehouse Design & Layout and Creating a Warehouse Location Numbering Scheme.

For many Sage 100 users, manual posting of transactions makes sense for their business. They may enter transactions throughout the day, and then go through the posting process at the end of the day or at other intervals. The option to review transaction details before committing them is a control that many companies utilize.

Imagine there’s a monitor in your warehouse showing the performance of each individual team member in real time. Everyone can see it, and everyone knows how they compare with everyone else, or with their own past performance. Do you think that might increase individual productivity?

With so many employees who have been with us here at ScanForce for 10+ years, we are like family. And like any family, we have many holiday traditions. Last week, the ScanForce Miami team held our annual holiday celebration with a festive gathering at Shula’s 347 Grill in Coral Gables, FL, not far from our Miami headquarters.
