Deploying Homegrown / Custom Software in Your Label Converter Business

[Label Traxx]

​

The pros and cons of building or running your label printing business on custom / homegrown software​

One of the areas where Label Traxx has thrived over the last 30 years is working with label converters who have no Print MIS/ERP in place or they have a homegrown system that they have outgrown. Often homegrown systems were developed by — and are supported by — a single individual. When that individual leaves the company, retires or simply is no longer available, they can be difficult to replace. Your Print MIS/ERP is the system of record for your business, resting that system on a single point of failure is a large risk. Commercial software is not risk free but a commercially available solution is used by many label converters and supported by a business entity.
