Covectra AuthentiTrack vs Scantrust

Covectra AuthentiTrack manages serialized pharmaceutical product data from packaging lines through cloud repositories, external EPCIS connections, and traceability workflows. Covectra says it supports DSCSA compliance with serialized identifiers, event histories, EPCIS exchange, and verification processes. Packaging operations can use high-speed automatic serialization or manual and semi-automatic modes. AuthentiTrack Enterprise connects multiple facility lines with ERP master data and AuthentiTrack Cloud. AuthentiTrack Prime addresses lower-volume manual or semi-automatic work, sending cloud data to the line controller and working with industry-accepted printers and verifiers without proprietary hardware. AuthentiTrack Cloud provides GS1 EPCIS certification, serial-number provisioning, notification interfaces, and an event repository. Gateway handles differing message formats with outside EPCIS providers and brand owners. VRS manages verification requests and responses for U.S. pharmaceutical saleable returns. Covectra lists ERP, MES, and WMS integration, plus EPCIS exchange among manufacturers, wholesalers, and dispensers. The integrated solution can be deployed on-premise or in the cloud, with implementation, validation, project management, impact assessment, and ERP integration services available. Pricing is on request.

Scantrust provides connected packaging and e-label tools for companies working to engage customers, address counterfeiting and improve supply-chain transparency. Its product scope includes industrial goods, consumer packaged goods, wine and beverage, and lubricants. E-label plans include compliance templates, translations into 24 languages, customizable landing pages and content updates that do not require QR code reprinting. An e-label is tied to one SKU, though units of that SKU can share it across countries. The Enterprise plan lists smart redirection, analytics, bulk creation, QR Manager, custom URL and domain, onboarding and user teams. Scantrust also describes Digital Product Passport tools using QR generation, URL management, landing pages and dynamic content. Its REST API can connect passports to PIM, ERP and e-commerce data. Business 30 costs €230 a year for 30 e-labels, Business 50 is €360 a year for 50, and Business 100 is €500 a year for 100; prices exclude VAT. A 90-day trial is listed.
