In their own words
Cloudlabels
Cloudlabels turns spreadsheet, CSV and Shopify catalog data into barcode labels for printing. Users can import Excel or CSV files, enter items manually, then export data back to either format. The Design Center places text, barcodes, QR codes and images on a canvas and links them to data columns. Supported formats include EAN-13, UPC-A, CODE-128, Code 39, DataMatrix, GS1 DataMatrix, EAN-8, UPC-E and QR. Shopify syncing covers products and variants, with changes that can be pushed back to the store. The browser-based service requires no installation and is listed for web and iOS. Paid plans export 600 DPI PDFs, support Avery and HERMA sheets, and allow printing from any starting position on a partly used sheet. The free plan is limited to 20 items and 20 labels per month, with 300 DPI exports carrying a watermark and one user. Paid options include Starter Pack at $19, paid once and Pro at $19.90 a month; a 7-day trial is listed.
Label Toolkit
Label Toolkit is a cloud, browser-based label designer for creating and printing labels without installing software or drivers. Its editor handles text, logos, borders, and major barcode types including UPC, EAN, GS1-128, QR, and Data Matrix. QR codes can use custom colors, rounded or dotted modules, different finder eyes, and a center logo. A text description can produce an editable layout, with fields bound to columns in loaded data. CSV imports support column mapping, row previews, and one label per row for batches of 10 to 10,000 spreadsheet rows. Merges can auto-increment serial numbers and conditionally show elements. Designs export as vector PDF or Zebra ZPL, and ZPL files can be imported, although some commands or graphics may not be recoverable. Google Sheets and Excel data require CSV export. A free public ZPL API supports programmatic generation. The editor and template gallery are free without signup.
