Pros and cons

My overall experience has been good. I am happy that the customer service is very friendly and responsibe incase I run into any problems I know I can ask for help.
Most important of all, you will have a very affordable price with the best customer service. For small companies like us, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is like our life-saver for this label printing issue.
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.
Have not explored all its features to form a dislike category yet.
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).
Just a little difficulty getting the printing to be centered, but we're printing on tiny 1" x 1" labels.

11/10 Software

Reviewed 5 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.

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

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.

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.

Take that SMEAD

Reviewed a year ago

We have professional looking labels for our HR and Special Education department files designed exactly just the way we wanted them. Everybody is happy.

Pros

After getting a ONE day notice that SMEAD was discontinuing their ridiculously expensive labelling system we were left scrambling for a replacement. I thought they would just remove their restrictive environment and place their non-supported software in the public domain and allow us to continue to use it but that was not the case. I needed to find a replacement QUICK. Luckily I found Label Live. I love the trial allowed for full use without worrying about watermarks etc. Once I designed the replacement labels we needed, we could start to use software immediately. The support staff was quickly trained and we purchased the full version. So far so good!

Cons

We are a school system and wished we could have used a purchase order. Just makes things cleaner for the auditors. Disclaimer: they do allow purchase orders for 5 or more licenses.

Hands down most useful and easy to use labelling software I have used!

Reviewed a year ago
Pros

The importing and variable labelling is intuitive and a lifesaver. Customizing my own label sizes is easy and [sensitive content hidden] has been so fast and helpful with any tweaks I needed to do. I love that it handles my barcodes and general labelling needs for any kind of label I need from big to small.

Cons

I would love to see pre populated Uline labels added to the system such as the Avery labels. Most of us using warehouse order from Uline so it would be handy.

So far, it works. Hopefully I will get used to the interface.

Pros

It works with Mac OS Ventura and a variety of label printers.

Cons

The user interface is less friendly than I would like. I might get used to it, but you should be able to select a label size/style and have it be the default. Also be good if it was tied to a specific lable size.

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.

Amazing Label Live save my life!

Label live is definitely a solution for my barcode printing issue. It is much easier to use when I need to do batch printing with mixed barcode (data matrix and 128). When I had any questions , [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was always get back to me within a day. I can't find a better customer service, seriously!

Pros

This software is able to solve any barcode issue you might have! Most important of all, you will have a very affordable price with the best customer service. For small companies like us, [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is like our life-saver for this label printing issue.

Cons

I didn't buy the printer from Label live, and we use our current Dymo printer. It takes us some time to figure out the best option for a sharp printing result.

Happy I found this software

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.

It Just Works

Reviewed 2 years ago

Quick, cheap, cheerful. It's all that's needed in such a straightforward application. I wish I had come to it sooner and saved a tone of wasted time with inferior software.

Pros

Really intuative to use. Only took a minute to understand and get my first label printed.

Cons

Ideally there would be a way to see the outline of a round label to ease the process of aligning text to fit.

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.

Amazing Label Designer

Reviewed 3 years ago

[SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been exceptional at sorting this little issue with the licence and I have to say LIGHTNING FAST!! Could not be happier with the service to date. Thank you, David Franklin

Pros

When researching for professional label software, as a small company we were quite surprised that the two large contenders in the label arena were very expensive and involved yearly fees, maintenance contracts etc etc etc, which amounted to VERY EXPENSIVE! for a newly established small business. When I came across LABEL LIVE, I was sceptical at first as the price for the pro version was very reasonable and did not involve complicated maintenance contracts and yearly subscriptions. I initially paid for the home version to see how the label software would suit our EPSON C300 label printer and DTM FOIL printer and it performed all the functions needed to create great looking professional labels. I upgraded to the PRO version a few days after!

Cons

The only small gripe and really it is small is the transferring of the licence if you need to reinstall windows on your existing computer, however not a big issue.

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!
