First of all, let me compliment you on your Barcode .NET SDK. We evaluated a number of products to use in our application, and yours was our favorite.

Dan Konigsberg
CampMinder, LLC
We choosed your software because of the good cost and performance ratio, especially for a combination of barcode reader & writer in 1D as well as 2D. In addition it's your feature to scan multiple barcodes on one page very useful for one of our projects. And the best of it, it is also very fast!

Thomas Götzinger
Business Data Solutions GmbH
Thanks for your VintaSoft Barcode .NET SDK update. The recognition quality and performance is very impressive. Now we're thinking about to replace our current barcode library with your engine for all developers.

Matthias Richter
