It’s no secret that maintaining an orderly evidence room is an essential key to establishing a secure chain of custody while ensuring easy retrieval efforts. Using barcode tracking software is the easiest way to achieve this, and we will outline two of the most important reasons why.
Efficiency
One of the main advantages of barcode tracking software lies in its efficiency. Barcode tracking software is much faster and more accurate than traditional methods of bookkeeping and retrieval. It is the ideal choice for maintaining your evidence room. Tasks that would’ve previously taken days can now easily be accomplished in a matter of seconds. By using an evidence barcode system, you eliminate the need to use a paper filing system for evidence, while also making it easier to quickly retrieve, track, and purge all forms of evidence. An evidence barcode system also makes it easier to adhere to consistent labeling practices as is necessary for effective evidence management.
Affordability
Another great benefit of barcode tracking software is its affordability. By comparison, RFID systems can be upwards of 20 times the cost of barcode tracking software, while only coming with a fraction of the accuracy. Additionally, barcode tracking software comes with none of the added equipment costs of RFID based systems, only requiring a simple barcode scanner.
