A trial period before implementation
For fast and accurate goods processing, Tuincentrum De Boet has been using advanced automation solutions for years. Recently, several barcode scanners were replaced, and a new app was implemented to provide direct product information and simplify and speed up the entry of sales orders. Reverse IT and Colleqtive worked closely with De Boet on this renewal. After years of repairing faulty barcode equipment, Reverse IT, in collaboration with Honeywell, recommended the new EDA51 when the old equipment was completely outdated.
Honeywell ScanPal EDA51 and Colleqtive App for De Boet
The Honeywell ScanPal EDA51 is a rugged handheld device with an integrated scanner and Android operating system. This device perfectly meets the needs of De Boet by not only scanning barcodes quickly and accurately but also by speeding up and simplifying work processes with a user-friendly app. The experiences with the EDA51 are very positive. The device is compact, has a clear display, and offers much faster scanning than a standard smartphone with a camera. Additionally, the battery easily lasts the whole day.
Colleqtive developed an app that enables warehouse and shop floor employees to get started with the EDA51 immediately. By scanning a barcode, all relevant product information is instantly displayed, such as stock, location, order quantity, turnover rate, and seasonality. Sales orders can be directly entered at the customer’s location. The integration of the Colleqtive app with existing systems and checkout solutions has significantly improved processes. Colleqtive provides flexibility and quickly develops new features to meet customer demands, greatly enhancing efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Correct support
Reverse IT played a critical role during the test phase that preceded the final selection of the Honeywell EDA51. The model was chosen based on its robust design, excellent price-to-performance ratio, and reliable performance in real-world conditions. Despite the ruggedness of the devices, employees at De Boet have handled the equipment with care, which has resulted in no defects or failures over the past year. This careful usage, combined with the solid construction of the devices, ensures their long-lasting effectiveness.
For any service requirements, De Boet has signed a Reverse IT CARE agreement. This provides them with direct access to repairs and ongoing support, ensuring that any potential issues are addressed quickly, minimizing downtime and maintaining smooth operations. The continued support from Reverse IT ensures that the devices remain fully operational, helping De Boet maintain efficiency in their daily workflows.
