Outstanding Software, and Great Customer Service!

Reviewed 3 years ago

As a long-time label printer user, I decided to move from a USB-teathered label printer to a spiffy new wifi printer a few months ago, replacing my Dymo Label Printer and it's archaic LabelMaker software with a new Rollo Wireless model. After purchasing the Rollo, I quickly discovered that the label printing software accompanying the Rollo was simply not yet ready for public sale. It was complicated...

Pros

It's so easy to install and use LabelLive. The software is straightforward, intuitive, and easy to learn and use with a variety of different label formats and sizes. In comparison with other label software products available on the market, it's far better! It formats and prints different size labels on a variety of common label printers without a lot of drama; it offers none of the print driver...

Cons

Since I'm a relatively new user, I haven't yet encountered anything that I don't like about the product. When I did notice a few things about LabelLive that I wanted to see added and/or changed within the program, the developers were very responsive to my suggestions and implemented changes to the program within a day or two.

Happy I found this software

Reviewed 2 years ago

I just print labels so I can send stuff like postcards. My usage is pretty simple.

Pros

It's pretty easy to use. I used access back in the day and use Excel a lot so it may be more intuitive to me but I love how clean the interface is. It's straight to the point but easy enough to use I didn't need to read the FAQ to get started. The software is lightweight and not bloaty.

Cons

I haven't run into issues yet. I will update if I do.

Success story that answered our prayers

Reviewed 3 months ago

Your software is very understandable and easy to use. Before we were using another one for NFC/RFID card printing jobs, and it was quiet difficult to use. Also our card printer didnt go hand in hand with it which resulted in regular problems with printer, which seemed impossible to resolve, and bad quality of print. Your software resolved most of our printer/card printing problems. I even find myself enjoying the quality when the card comes out of printer. Before I was physically cringing every time when a card printing request came in. So thank you very much for your work and wish you success in future!

11/10 Software

Reviewed 6 months ago
Pros

It was very easy to set up and use, importing from a spreadsheet was a breeze, and the customization and UI for creating labels is very clear and easy to use. The ability to print off so many variables and use data so effectively is a massive boon. Customer support has been amazing in helping me figure things out, including getting a feature implemented that i suggested, and sending me a beta copy to test with.

Cons

There are niche instances of features that i would like to see, but am generally not upset about having as i can bake them in to my excel sheets.

Great Program - Easy to Use

Reviewed 9 months ago

Overall Label LIVE has saved me a ton of time and makes me look great.

Pros

Very easy to use. The program is simple but does a lot. You do not need to be a computer whiz to figure it out. Whenever I have a question, the developer responds in a timely manner and gets me the answer I need.

Cons

I do not have any complaints about Label LIVE.

Great Customer Service

Reviewed 3 years ago

I was having trouble with getting the label, when printed, to fit on the sheets we have in stock (our brand was not listed on the available options). I emailed the customer support and was able to quickly get in touch with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN]. He did an incredible job of helping me fine tone some numbers in order to get the dimensions correct. The fact he figured it out by just seeing a picture, in no time at all, was awesome. Just his support and assistance made going with this company a no-brainer!

Pros

Software is very easy to use and gives you options to adjust multiple facets of each label. Also a big bonus of being able to save sheets of labels - printing 120 at a time is typical in our office.

Cons

Having to save the labels on our computer hard-drive versus the label software itself, takes a bit of time in terms of opening a saved label sheet to print. But if that's the biggest complaint (which isn't a huge deal anyway), that's great!

The best at customer service

Reviewed 2 years ago

By far the best customer service in the game. We have had 2 issues while using this software for the past 2 years, both of them were created by us not the developer. Within minutes of submitting a ticket we had a personal message and a solution to our issues. The first time we called and instantly talked to a person, and had the solution in minutes as well. I can't say enough about this... this never happens!! It's great to deal with actual customer support, and have problems fixed on the fly. I highly recommend this software, this team is the best.

Pros

Easy to use, easy to fix when you mess it up yourself!

Cons

Nothing really, its pretty simple to use

Label Live review from TiGHTled.com

Reviewed 5 years ago

My overall experience is beyond good. Label Live has made me work more effective with labeling and saved me tons of hours with work!

Pros

I really like the simplicity and that you easily can import xls files and work with several products at once but only with one label template that you create really easily with this software. I Also appreciate the effort and availability that Caylan gives me as a user. I had some requests about changes that would make my labels exactly as I want them and within 24 hours Caylan had made those changes so that I could have it exactly as I wanted. Thats a support I didn't expected at all!

Cons

Right now I don't have anything I don't like. This software does exactly what it's supposed to.

Excellent product, easy to use and very intuitive

Reviewed 2 years ago

Excellent.

Pros

Love the product, everything about is fantastic.

Cons

Installing the license needs to be done for EVERY user of that computer. That's a little frustrating as it's on a computer that is used by multiple people. Which means the first time it's used for a new logon the person has to install the license. It would be nice to have a machine wide license instead of installing per person that logs on.

Vendor response

Thanks for your support. You can install a license machine-wide by placing the license in C:\lll (lower-case L) and Label LIVE will automatically try to install that license at startup.

Creating labels, the simple way

Reviewed 3 years ago

Label Live is the innate software that we use for ALL of our barcode printing needs. Everything is done in a cinch!

Pros

I was just about pulling my hair out to get "tiny" SKU barcodes printed onto our products using the innate dymo software. I scoured the internet and found Label Live. It SERIOUSLY has saved myself and my staff hours of time in setting up barcodes. I couldn't have done any of it without Label Live.

I can't say a bad thing about this product, it's very well designed.

The ONLY label software you need

Reviewed 4 years ago

I cannot rate this software/company enough, it has been great working with both - long may it continue.

Pros

The ease of use is amazing. Having the anchor feature ensures no mishaps. If you have to amend anything on the spreadsheet you are using the system updates too so no need to export and re-import. I can't rate the software or the support received, both are fantastic. Will absolutely recommend to others.

Cons

I honestly cannot think of any cons, it has worked like an absolute dream.

An indispensable tool for running a brick and mortar business.

Reviewed 2 months ago

A++ - Customer service, UI/UX, integration into our workflow, functionality, and consistent and frequent new releases.

Pros

This is the ONLY app available out there that let's small businesses like ours generate professional looking labels. We currently use Square for Retail, but I believe this is also applicable for Shopify, Clover, Talech, etc. This app at the very start appears to be a solid designer for custom labels. It connects easily to our wifi connected printers (laser jet as well as a Zebra mobile printer)....

Cons

I believe some of the UI/UX could be improved but that is purely preferrential and I believe a lot of the things are in the works. It's just packed with so many features that it's fairly negligible compared to what the app offers in return.

Thank you for a great product!

Reviewed 2 years ago

One final story that I thought was pretty cool and I wanted to pass along. I was recently in Malawi for a surgical program with a surgical NGO. I met with the hospital [SENSITIVE CONTENT] in Kamuzu Central Hospital in the Capital of Malawi, Lilongwe. He saw our patient writstband IDs (which used the labels generated from your software)/labels on our patient charts and wanted to see how he could take...

Pros

I have been using your software around the world and it has been an incredibly easy product/tool to use in creating patient labels and QR codes with our patient unique identifiers, and even easier to train our teams to use because of how simple and intuitive it is. We have purchased licenses for our teams around the globe. While other technology pieces have changed as we’ve trialed things in low resource settings, Label Live has been a consistent and reliable piece of the entire solution package that continues to meet our needs. So thank you for creating this label solution!

Cons

Sometimes it is difficult to download the software when I am abroad and trying to download directly from the LabelLive website. Sometimes I need to download from the google store, but because I am mostly an apple user, this leads to a good amount of time figuring out workarounds to get the software downloaded and licenses purchased.

Excellent Product, Customer Service and Very User Friendly!

Reviewed 2 years ago

We were really stressed out when our label software we had for over a decade no longer worked and we were printing our box labels in Word which was a nightmare with 200+ box shipments, printing one by one. But once we realized we could not generate UPCA retail price tickets we had to act fast. After a few trials with other label software companies I stick with Label LIVE due to the functionality, ease of use and service.

Pros

After being tasked with replacing our outdated label maker software I came across Label LIVE several times and they offer a free trial so no risk. I tried it for 13 days and loved it, then paid the one-time fee. It is SO easy to use, anyone can sit down and understand the software. It has all the functions we need to create barcode labels, rack labels, box labels and so much more. I love the importing...

Cons

I saw one area of improvement which is the print function, when you print 20 labels or any qty over 1 it prints each label one by one, instead of consecutively. Now this could be user-error like I need to find some setting to get it to print consecutively or its my label printers, not sure just yet.

We like Label LIVE

Reviewed 2 years ago

We are very happy with Label LIVE. It solves compatibility problems with some of our newer equipment and lets us rapidly produce the shipping labels vital to our business.

Pros

Label LIVE is intuitive and easy to use even for the most complicated shipping label requirements devised by our customers. It fits in well with our work flow and notably is compatible with the newer M1 Macintosh computers and has a built in driver for our thermal printer - something that is otherwise difficult to find. Customer support is outstanding: When we found the product missing an element critical to our workflow, the Label LIVE people were able to add it in for us in just a couple of days.

Cons

Previewing and editing individual labels created from a batch import could be improved.

Labeling Made Easy

Reviewed 4 years ago

We use labels with our WASP printer and a typical laser printer for Avery labels. We had hundreds of label files for each product and all had a slightly different design. Now with Label live, we create one label template for each size and use the data upload to dynamically print any particular product we need. It is such a great process improvement, the actual interface is easy to use and clear, and support has been very prompt and willing to help troubleshoot any issue. We also sometimes had printing issues where the image on the software looked terrible once actually printed (blurry images or text), but with label live it gives an accurate preview of how the label will print and allows you to tweak the design as needed.

Pros

Label live's sleek user interface and well thought out features makes creating beautiful custom labels very easy and straightforward. By far the best reason for our purchase was the feature that allows you to upload a spreadsheet and customize variables on the label - so instead of hundreds of label files for our products, we only need one label file and one spreadsheet to indicate the product name, number and barcode. Now all our labels look great and we have a new consistency across our labels.

Cons

I wish there were more self-help resources online other than the YouTube videos and the FAQ on the label live website.

Best intuitive label app

Reviewed 3 years ago

Fantastic app with superb customer service who are quick to respond.

Pros

Super simple clean and obvious functional design with no unnecessary clunky features like many other label solutions have. Integrates really well with excel sheets for printing vast arrays of data, including data variables for how many print quantities.

Cons

Only issue I've found is that with large excel sheets it can be a bit slow to update data, and there is not a clear indication of when this is completed. The app shows when the file was last "updated" but this seems to just be when it noticed a change not when it's finished updating all changes.

Horticultural tag simplicity

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

The ability to design the tag easily was so helpful for someone without any graphic design background.

Cons

Just one small glitch regarding a variable window would not refresh as being empty. So you’d manually have to delete the data so it wouldn’t inherently print on the wrong tag.
