3 Reasons Why It's Time to Upgrade Your Warehouse Data Capture and Label Printing Technology

Posted On

 

Now that 2024 is just weeks away, it's a crucial time for warehouses to plan for next year. Additionally, with fulfillment and delivery demands continuing to run high, those plans should include ways to boost operational efficiency and performance. 

One of the easiest ways to increase warehouse labor efficiency and boost productivity is to replace and upgrade warehouse technologies that might be slowing down your workers or not keeping up with your growing needs.

If you have aging or outdated mobile computers, tablets, data capture devices or printers, chances are they don't have the processing power, reliable connectivity, security features or high-speed performance to keep up with your workflows. Now is a great time to upgrade. 

To help enable these productivity and efficiency improvements, the GO Zebra Trade-In Program provides savings of up to $650 per device when you trade in any qualifying device from any manufacturer and upgrade to the latest Zebra warehousing solutions. 

1. Swapping Setbacks for Savings with GO Zebra

While purchasing new mobile devices might seem expensive at first glance, GO Zebra trade-in rebates are in place now to help you save thousands of dollars as you upgrade to smarter, faster, more capable Zebra computing, scanning and printing devices.

2. Increase Productivity

There's no easy way to quantify all the lost hours due to slow devices or outdated operating systems and digital processes, but Zebra studies have shown that upgrading to newer and better-performing warehouse technology with touch-enabled workflows and more ergonomic designs, has helped many warehouses acheive as much as a 14% increase in productivity per worker, per shift. 

3. Increase Efficiency

According to the same research, devices such as Zebra's TC8300 touch mobile computer enable 40% faster data entry and 60% fewer errors with error-proofed and digital keystroke entry via customized virtual keyboards. Similarly, rugged industrial tablets typically enable huge efficiency gains by fitting more information on every screen and reducing the number of screens, steps and button taps that it takes to complete inventory management or order fulfillment tasks. 

To help enable these productivity and efficiency improvements, the GO Zebra Trade-In Program provides savings of up to $650 per device when you trade in any qualifying device from any manufacturer and upgrade to the latest Zebra warehousing solutions. 

Steps to get Zebra's Lucrative Trade-In Rebates

The GO Zebra Trade-In Program is simple and provides a fast and easy way to trade in your legacy devices from any manufacturer to earn rebates in three simple steps:

  • Purchase a qualified product
  • Submit your reclaim form

However, the program is only available until December 31, 2023, so now is the time to act.
