Keep Unitag, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of Unitag you could make: qR codes, digital business card and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 2 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 22 of the 22 other QR code generators grade higher. It costs $348 a year.
What you could make
- QR codes, digital business card and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- An API that other software can build on.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: single sign-on.
What this rests on. Unitag’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
