A barcode is an encoding tag or label that is placed on all products that allow computers, scanners and mobile devices to track and find these products much faster. Using barcodes is important in your inventory tracking process and offers countless benefits for your company and your customers. The main benefit is that barcodes eliminate the possibility of human error: the amount of errors with manually entered data is high, but scanning a barcode is fast, reliable, and by all means less time-consuming.
Another great advantage of barcodes is that you can print your barcodes (with the printer you have at home) and in a few minutes your entire inventory will be labeled and tracked. You don’t have to pay a lot, buy special printers or waste time. Easy, quick and cheap. YITH WooCommerce Barcodes and QR Codes allows you to generate and read barcodes and QR codes. They are automatically generated both on products and on orders. You can set a specific action whenever you scan a code (decrease or increase stock, change order status…) to automate and speed up your workflow without any mistakes.

Awesome pluginAwesome plugin, and it integrates very well with the POS one. The only negative side is that buying both plugins is a quite expensive, but anyway it's worth the price.

Whoever wrote this never worked in retail Plety of problems1. You can't print to a label printer. The whole point is to print a barcode with the price to put on a product and there is actually no way to do it.
2. The customer support was very nice and tried really hard to help but again there is absolutely no way to make this work in a retail environment.
3. I asked them what type of printers they recommend and was told "We can't recommend a printer."
4. I'm out the cost of a label printer, the software and a week of my time.

The QR code functionality does not work as promisedI have been using this plugin for QR codes and I find it absolutely useless.
When printing all product images including variation images, only a few images show. Furthermore, there is no layout customization available for printing lists, and the default design does not respect page borders but "splits" the labels over two pages. If you want to assign the product URL to a QR code as advertised, you need to do that manually for each product.
I switched to barcodes just to check, and it works better (doesn't skip the images as it does for the QR codes), but since I need QR codes functionality, this does not really help. The customer service is basically non-existent, and by default assumes that the error is at your side, and that you probably did not set up the plugin correctly, which is highly frustrating, as this means you would have to spend days going through a range of stupid back-and-forth questions such as "did you select 'print product with variations' " before they even start looking at your problem.

Dear Sanne,
we are very sorry to read about your dissatisfaction with the plugin, it happens that a product does not meet the buyer's expectations, this is why we offer 30-day money-back guarantee. Yet, let me be clear about the issues you're mentioning and our support, as our customer service is always ready to help and has proved to do so with you, and we believe that what you're stating here is not fair.
About the QR code link, our support team explained how to generate the link for the QR code and this has not to be done manually for each product, but it's automatic for all products.
About the issue with the variations, we made a test on your site and it worked as promised. None of our team intends to overlook your requests, in fact, we made a test right on your website and made a video out of this for you to show you exactly how to do that. As you have many products this process will take longer to generate them all.
About the style issues, you did not mention them in the tickets, but please, let our technicians know exactly what you refer to in the ticket, they will be happy to help you.
