AccuGraphiX has over 20 years experience in using and testing a variety of bar code software products. From the most expensive software on the market to the cheapest "off the shelf" software, we have come to the conclusion that Bartender Software is the recommended choice.

BarTender is the leading true Windows bar code label software program. This professional label design and bar code software tool has powerful features for compliance labels and integration with enterprise software. It even supports RFID tags. Yet BarTender is so easy, it gets beginners designing in minutes.

What we also like about Bartender is FREE technical support! Seagull Scientific, the developer of Bartender Software offers free technical support, 6:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time. While most software companies charge yearly maintenance agreements, you only pay for the cost of the phone call with Bartender!

Enterprise Edition Click here for price!
Provides the full range of BarTender's most powerful features. Especially designed to allow automation control by other programs. Contains our complete set of external data access capabilities.
Delivers - Includes our most powerful software integration tools, such as ActiveX Automation, Enterprise messaging and Seagull's own Commander utility for cross-platform integration. Advanced data sourcing, including the industry's only SAP-certified direct IDoc interface. Intelligent network Install can set up a single copy of BarTender to run on unlimited workstations.
Licensing - Allows unlimited number of local area network users, with licensing based on the maximum number of printers. (Multiple corporate sites require individual licenses.)

Professional Edition - Most Popular! Click here for price!
All of the label design and most of the data access of the Enterprise Edition. Network compatible, but not optimized for control by other software.
Delivers - All of the label design and printing features of the Enterprise Edition and most of the advanced data access capabilities, including ODBC. Fully network compatible. Control by other programs limited to a simple "command line" interface.
Leaves Out - No ActiveX Automation or Commander integration. No SAP IDoc interface. No automatic e-mailing of logged events and errors. Although otherwise network-compatible, Install program will not setup a single BarTender as shareable from multiple workstations.
Licensing - Licensing is based on the number of workstations running BarTender, regardless of whether or not they are on a common network. Supports an unlimited number of networked printers.

Basic Edition Click here for price!
For users who just need BarTender's essential label design and printing features.
Delivers - The most important "core" label design features. Includes all text, graphics and linear bar code support. Supports simple, numeric serialization. Useful for keyboard-supplied label data only.
Leaves Out - Does not offer integration, enterprise message handling, or external data access of any kind. No password protection, VB Script customization, text filtering, job logging, or 2D bar codes. No advanced or custom serialization.
Licensing - Same as Professional.
