AppSynergy Support
Although AppSynergy can work with various types of barcode scanners, some are better than others. External Scanners with Bluetooth HID are recommended. These scanners natively interface with all mobile devices and laptops (i.e. no need to install any drivers, keyboards or apps to make them work). We recommend the SocketScan or Socket Mobile 800 Series for most use cases.
If you are having barcode labels printed and you do not have specific format requirements dictated by your industry or use case, we recommend using barcodes in Code128 format as it is highly flexible (can encode all 128 ASCII characters), compact and modern. AppSynergy can generate barcodes in a variety of formats (Code128 is the AppSynergy default) and are often useful printed on packing slips or other shipping materials.
