Following tagged items through operations involves more than capturing a read: teams may also need to review movement and exceptions. RFID software can be compared on API access, deployment, mobile support and movement history, as well as read-event analytics and exception alerts. Free-plan availability and paid-from pricing offer additional points for assessing fit. TagMatiks, OpenRFID Middleware and AssetPulse are among the products shown, along with Senitron Athena and RFTrack. Consider what item activity your team needs to track, which details it needs to review, and how the listed deployment and API options relate to your operating setup.
