While often overlooked, data capture is one of the most promising avenues through which a business can make strategic decisions and understand the nuances of its processes on a meaningful level. Data capture simply revolves around the collection of various types of information, formatting, analyzing, and storing it in a way that is beneficial to the various processes of an organization.

Traditional data capture was mostly done manually, using complex forms. The data hence gathered had a high chance of being riddled with mistakes and it is not quite useful or actionable either.

There are various industry use cases that involve scanning of barcode and QR codes, as scanning is a great way for data capture. A few examples of these are:

• Scanning inventory in the warehouse or any other location.
• Scanning previously issued visitor passes issued to allow or disallow the entry.
• Scanning and pull up information from documents like invoices, purchase orders, etc.

Quixy allows enterprises to build applications that can be used to collect data effectively.
