We're currently evaluating Nicelable and are in the process of replacing Bartender with Nicelable. Cost is similar for our needs level and Nicelable has a modern UI and is much more user-friendly. We are having to rework our automation routines but we're seeing a higher …

We are also using Teklynx Labelview currently...Bartender provides better accuracy and speed, is more customizable.
However, Teklynx Labelview is easier to use.
Chose BarTender
We selected BarTender for the amount of things that it can do. The options that you can configure in the software just make it super flexible. It will easily grow with the business. It also enables you to have built in DR across all the sites when it is up and running properly. …
Chose BarTender
BarTender is the easiest label designer I have used. There are so many features within the program that I love learning and trying new things to discover aspects of the software I didn’t know existed.
Chose BarTender
We do use Zebra label designer, a free product, in circumstances where we don’t need a complicated label, such as no serialization, no connection to a dynamic database, etc. If we were to pull those instances into BarTender, we would need more licenses, which are expensive
Chose BarTender
We had people using word merge to print labels and now they are using bartender

Bartender may well be suited for larger companies who have people with Bartender experience, but it is an unnecessarily complex suite of apps that takes some getting used to. Smaller IT shops looking for something more user-friendly, slightly less expensive, and more streamlined should look for alternatives. Some applications are built specifically to use Bartender template files, and in those cases, you may not have an alternative.

I often have to try to troubleshoot printing issues for other team members, but I have never reached out to a BarTender support network. I’ve always just tinkered within the app to figure it out.
