Label LIVE

Vorteile

Simple to use. Easy to go from starting the software to editing a label without unnecessary steps in between. I like the ability to duplicated saved labels which allows quickly modeling new label formats the same as previous labels.

Nachteile

I honestly haven't run into any issues that have caused me any problems.

Vorteile

This is the ONLY app available out there that let's small businesses like ours generate professional looking labels. We currently use Square for Retail, but I believe this is also applicable for Shopify, Clover, Talech, etc.

This app at the very start appears to be a solid designer for custom labels. It connects easily to our wifi connected printers (laser jet as well as a Zebra mobile printer). It can do Mac AND Windows. Updates are frequent and the beta versions always seem to have tangible improvements. We use this app every single day to help our customers find prices easily, for our inventory tracking, and for easier purchase orders.

That in itself is hard to find in this market and price range. However, the thing that sets this app apart is its very deep integration with programming logic (show or hide elements) as well as integrating well with our spreadsheets (by the use of variables we can pass into it).

We particularly like the HTTP/MQTT feature that allows us to print labels directly from Google Sheets - the same spreadsheets that we use to update our inventory can now print labels. This save us a significant amount of time that translates into real dollars saved by being able to efficiently utilize our staff.

We have the logic version of the app that even allows the use of Javascript to get really deep! It allows us for a single file to serve multiple use cases and it's a huge time saver.

Last but not least, [sensitive content hidden], the developer, is hands on with his product. He IS the help line. I've never come across a software company who's [sensitive content hidden] is so directly involved in the end customer's satisfaction. This speaks volumes and creates a lot of trust on my end. Please support more companies like this!

Nachteile

I believe some of the UI/UX could be improved but that is purely preferrential and I believe a lot of the things are in the works. It's just packed with so many features that it's fairly negligible compared to what the app offers in return.

Vorteile

The ease of use is phenomenal. Label Live does not over complicate the label making process. We have around 550 SKUS (Not a lot in the big picture) However, the ability to upload all of our items and then create the way we want the label to look - was very easy - I imagine this could be done with many more SKUS. We also really enjoyed how easy it was to design the label.

Nachteile

Nothing so far. We have had no issues with the software.

Vorteile

ability to make QR codes on the fly and the ability to use multiple thermal printers.

Nachteile

Learning curve to set it up properly with my printer.

Vorteile

The simplicity of creating signage and labels that can be produced and changed via a table or spreadsheet makes it a breeze compared to multiple MS Publisher documents I used to use. I don't think it's designed to make full page or large label publication but it does just that for me.

Nachteile

I wish there was a few more features, such as a simpler way to remove digits and decimal point leaving a suffix (p/¢) however [sensitive content hidden] has kindly given me a script to allow this following my business's design style. Other than some quality of life designing features required I have no complaints about this app!

Vorteile

Intuitive Interface, Easier to work with compared to other label generator. Lastly, Dynamic Image is a game changer, you can now add images to your label and use an excel file to upload those images. Without the need to manually add images.

Nachteile

Nothing. Only a tiny little bit of adjustment with the barcode resizing interface.

Vorteile

When I need new software, it's usually because I've run up against a problem I need to solve. I'd been using DYMO software to print labels and was having issues with their software and drivers, so I went looking for something better. That's when I found Label LIVE.

My biggest expection when looking for a label printer is something that is easy to use and I think I've found what I wanted.

I did have a couple of questions and support was very quick to respond which I feel is as important as the software itself.

Nachteile

Nothing, it has worked exactly as I've expected.

Vorteile

The labeling software is very flexible and allows you to go from spreadsheet to list of labels very easily.

Nachteile

I wish the catalogs of images would allow for dithering and rotations settings per image.

Vorteile

Very efficient et easy to use. You can upload an excel file and convert it to barcode. It’s like magic

Nachteile

Nothing for now, I like all I’ve seen. Keep going!

Vorteile

I can use it for various codes that fit my specific label size.

Nachteile

Nothing yet! So far it's great! I am still experimenting but so far I have been able to figure everything out.

Vorteile

That we can use excel as an database , so many options to design labels

Nachteile

Till now I find nothing what is wrong for me . But as there is always something i will let you know as soon as i found it !

Vorteile

I tried many. I hoped that one of the softwares that came from the makers of my label printers would work for my needs. Their basic features and functions didn't even work properly. This software is really what up to date, current/modern software for label printing should be like. It does everything I need, I can't imagine what else you would want.

Nachteile

Absolutely nothing. It worked exactly as it should.

Vorteile

Very easy to use. The program is simple but does a lot. You do not need to be a computer whiz to figure it out. Whenever I have a question, the developer responds in a timely manner and gets me the answer I need.

Nachteile

I do not have any complaints about Label LIVE.

Vorteile

Compared to others, which I have tried many of ... Label LIVE is much easier to use, less clunky, and has fantastic support.

Nachteile

It can be a bit picky to get data wired up.

Vorteile

Everything is all set to go. Very nice software and a database set.

Nachteile

"Label Live software works seamlessly. All's well!"

Vorteile

After being tasked with replacing our outdated label maker software I came across Label LIVE several times and they offer a free trial so no risk. I tried it for 13 days and loved it, then paid the one-time fee. It is SO easy to use, anyone can sit down and understand the software. It has all the functions we need to create barcode labels, rack labels, box labels and so much more. I love the importing function is has for importing our excel files; I can just click and print all styles with their UPCs on the entire spreadsheet.

I really appreciated that when I had questions I could shoot an email over to the company and receive an almost immediate reply which was really helpful if I ran into any issues or needed a work around. Once I did get a reply it was straight to the point and straight to a solution. This is a HUGE plus for our company as we strive to provide the same level of service to our own customers.

Nachteile

I saw one area of improvement which is the print function, when you print 20 labels or any qty over 1 it prints each label one by one, instead of consecutively. Now this could be user-error like I need to find some setting to get it to print consecutively or its my label printers, not sure just yet.

Vorteile

Flexibility to import data from spreadsheets and customise designs.

Nachteile

It does what I need and is robust to perform without interuption to my business.

Vorteile

Label live's sleek user interface and well thought out features makes creating beautiful custom labels very easy and straightforward. By far the best reason for our purchase was the feature that allows you to upload a spreadsheet and customize variables on the label - so instead of hundreds of label files for our products, we only need one label file and one spreadsheet to indicate the product name, number and barcode. Now all our labels look great and we have a new consistency across our labels.

Nachteile

I wish there were more self-help resources online other than the YouTube videos and the FAQ on the label live website.

Vorteile

Software is very easy to use and gives you options to adjust multiple facets of each label. Also a big bonus of being able to save sheets of labels - printing 120 at a time is typical in our office.

Nachteile

Having to save the labels on our computer hard-drive versus the label software itself, takes a bit of time in terms of opening a saved label sheet to print. But if that's the biggest complaint (which isn't a huge deal anyway), that's great!

Vorteile

Everything ......... I personally critique most things to the nth degree, this product is exceptionally well designed and with a responsive technical support team

Nachteile

Nothing, so far I have not found any flaws in this product

Vorteile

Quick start-up time, ability to integrate into current systems.

Nachteile

Nothing its great! I would like there to be some github examples that work right out of the box. Do that and setup a link on the site!

Vorteile

printing labels by importing data from excel and auto reload data from excel

Nachteile

Everything was perfect as per my needs.Saved a lot of time for me.

Vorteile

So simple to use, supports a huge range of printers, and makes printing labels with text and QR codes so easy. All are backed by brilliant customer support.

Nachteile

No complaints, its great, nothing I would add.

Vorteile

Simplicity of usage. Mac compatibility is awesome.

Nachteile

Nothing really, the team has no complain about it.

Vorteile

Ease of implementation and use. UI. Lot's of useful features.

Nachteile

Haven't find any cons so far. So no critique at all.

Vorteile

What I love most about Label LIVE is its seamless cross-platform capability. It’s more than just a tool; it’s a versatile solution for organizing and managing labels across different platforms. Whether you're on Windows, macOS, or even Linux, Label LIVE makes the labeling process straightforward and efficient, eliminating the hassle of compatibility issues.

Nachteile

The license structure could be more flexible; it sometimes feels a bit constraining. However, the responsive and efficient support team really helps balance it out. Their quick assistance can make a big difference when you need it most.

Vorteile

The freedom to do what every I want with the label.

Nachteile

That I cannot copy one thing from one design to another design.

Vorteile

The user interface for designing a label is intuitive and works extremely well. The integration, while technical, is a live-saver. We were able to integrate Label.live into our exciting custom software. We use thermal, roll label printers and the built-in drivers enabled us to print an exact quantity without user input.

Nachteile

I had one problem, but emailed the developer and I received an updated (beta) version of the software in less than 24 hrs.

Vorteile

It was very easy to set up and use, importing from a spreadsheet was a breeze, and the customization and UI for creating labels is very clear and easy to use. The ability to print off so many variables and use data so effectively is a massive boon. Customer support has been amazing in helping me figure things out, including getting a feature implemented that i suggested, and sending me a beta copy to test with.

Nachteile

There are niche instances of features that i would like to see, but am generally not upset about having as i can bake them in to my excel sheets.

Vorteile

Label Live was a godsend when I found it. It's so simple to use and does the job I need it to do. So much better than the clunky MS based software which is overcomplicated and unuser-friendly.

Nachteile

I haven't found anything yet that I don't like.

Vorteile

I connected an excel data file with label editor to create receipt to our association members. I used editor function without looking instructions and it's so easy
It's so so "intelligent": you can add sheet on excel file, fields, data inside fields, and Label Live update all instantly.
Software house offered me for free a duplicated license permitting me to work on desktop and laptop computer: thank you so much.
I'm so happy to use Label Live and I raccomanded to all people to try the 20 days free version.

Nachteile

At this moment, I liked everything

Vorteile

I liked the practicality of how the work is done and the company's concern to make work easier for its employees by making codes easier in different ways and facilitating product identification.

Nachteile

I believe that the company does not need to put a lot of effort into product designs, and focus on information.

Vorteile

The ability to design the tag easily was so helpful for someone without any graphic design background.

Nachteile

Just one small glitch regarding a variable window would not refresh as being empty. So you’d manually have to delete the data so it wouldn’t inherently print on the wrong tag.

Vorteile

After getting a ONE day notice that SMEAD was discontinuing their ridiculously expensive labelling system we were left scrambling for a replacement. I thought they would just remove their restrictive environment and place their non-supported software in the public domain and allow us to continue to use it but that was not the case. I needed to find a replacement QUICK. Luckily I found Label Live. I love the trial allowed for full use without worrying about watermarks etc. Once I designed the replacement labels we needed, we could start to use software immediately. The support staff was quickly trained and we purchased the full version. So far so good!

Nachteile

We are a school system and wished we could have used a purchase order. Just makes things cleaner for the auditors. Disclaimer: they do allow purchase orders for 5 or more licenses.

Vorteile

Very versatile software and simple to use yet powerful in features.

Nachteile

Nothing that I can identify just yet! Everything has been great.

Vorteile

Ease of use, incredible features, fantastic support, low cost, runs on Macs!

Nachteile

Some bugs are still occurring but the support is doing a really good job.

Vorteile

The bulk feature is fairly easy to navigate and efficient for industrial purposes.

Nachteile

It was initially unclear to me what the function of the Print Preview option is.

Vorteile

Fantastic software. Really easy to setup and use, especially on a mac when many printers arent supported.

Nachteile

Some of the inbuilt data table functionality isn't as intuitive on first use but it's still easy to use

Vorteile

The importing and variable labelling is intuitive and a lifesaver. Customizing my own label sizes is easy and [sensitive content hidden]
has been so fast and helpful with any tweaks I needed to do. I love that it handles my barcodes and general labelling needs for any kind of label I need from big to small.

Nachteile

I would love to see pre populated Uline labels added to the system such as the Avery labels. Most of us using warehouse order from Uline so it would be handy.

Vorteile

Ease of use, actual customer support response from a real person, and the ability to import my data and link it to my design in minutes.

Nachteile

Only con is that I didn't find it sooner.

Non ho trovato inconvenienti, è un programma facile e intuitivo.

I like being able to print individual labels on the go

Nachteile

Working out how to use the software. It's great when you know how but getting there took me a while.

Vorteile

It was really easy to import spreadsheet data to print labels. The setup for our printer was almost automatic.

Nachteile

It's a bit tricky to drag and drop text boxes in the label creator

Vorteile

It's so easy to install and use LabelLive. The software is straightforward, intuitive, and easy to learn and use with a variety of different label formats and sizes. In comparison with other label software products available on the market, it's far better! It formats and prints different size labels on a variety of common label printers without a lot of drama; it offers none of the print driver technical issues that confound other label printer software; and it's quite simple to design, compose, and print an infinite variety of different label sizes and formats. In addition, customer support for the product is outstanding. If you encounter a problem, or have difficulty in using the software, simply contact the developers and they'll respond with a workable solution within a day or two.

Nachteile

Since I'm a relatively new user, I haven't yet encountered anything that I don't like about the product. When I did notice a few things about LabelLive that I wanted to see added and/or changed within the program, the developers were very responsive to my suggestions and implemented changes to the program within a day or two.

Vorteile

I have been using your software around the world and it has been an incredibly easy product/tool to use in creating patient labels and QR codes with our patient unique identifiers, and even easier to train our teams to use because of how simple and intuitive it is. We have purchased licenses for our teams around the globe. While other technology pieces have changed as we’ve trialed things in low resource settings, Label Live has been a consistent and reliable piece of the entire solution package that continues to meet our needs. So thank you for creating this label solution!

Nachteile

Sometimes it is difficult to download the software when I am abroad and trying to download directly from the LabelLive website. Sometimes I need to download from the google store, but because I am mostly an apple user, this leads to a good amount of time figuring out workarounds to get the software downloaded and licenses purchased.
