BeeVision vs. Cubiscan:
How to Make a Transition From Cubiscan to
BeeVision?
The product you choose in parcel and pallet dimensioning and its
integration into your systems are very important. There are many
dimensioning systems providers (or cubiscan device providers as some
may call them) in the market. We have previously touched on why you
should choose BeeVision from many aspects. But what if you have been
using another dimensioning system and want to switch to BeeVision?
We have been asked this question many times and in this blog, we
will address how you can be promoted from Cubiscan, which has a
longer history in the market, to BeeVision, which is more
software-advanced.
Cubiscan is a company that provides
dimensioning (cubing), and weighing equipment and systems to meet
your handling, shipping, and storage needs. Despite being among the
first dimensioner providers, Cubiscan does not provide
software-powered dimensioning systems.
BeeVision started
its journey with dimensioning systems and sortation systems. For
BeeVision, it has always been a priority to provide technological
convenience to the customers in its products. With the help of AI
and optional cloud services, it aims to help customers expand their
business by automating and streamlining their inventory and shipping
processes.
So, you have a Cubiscan product and you want
to switch to BeeVision, how can you do that? We get that question a
lot. The answer is quite simple! BeeVision devices can import the CSV of all the data you keep in
Cubiscan and add it directly to BeeVision. You can easily switch
from Cubiscan to BeeVision without the thought of losing your
data.
If you want to keep the legacy integration methods such as file
upload to an FTP drive as mostly done with Cubiscan dimensioning
systems, you can do that with BeeVision too. However, we strongly
recommend employing web-service-based integration for better
traceability and much less maintenance.
While it is so easy to switch from Cubiscan to
BeeVision, if you have thoughts about changing products, we can give
you many examples that can motivate you. Some of those:
Users need to install the software on their PC to be able to
use Cubiscan. This is a time-consuming and grueling job. It
requires coordination with your IT department. BeeVision, on the
other hand, does not have any external software that you need to
install. It is plug&measure.
BeeVision is an API-oriented company. There are Measurement
API, OCR Text Detection API, or pre-built integrations such as
ShipStation, and ShipHero APIs offered with BeeHive Cloud. So,
you can start using BeeVision devices instantly.
BeeVision has strong customer support. Throughout the process,
our entire team carefully supports our customers. Pre-installed
remote connection software makes support quick and easy.
Unlike Cubiscan, with BeeVision's BeeHive platform, you can
keep your measurement data images as long as you like and you
can visualize and analyze them collectively. In addition, it
offers you more services based on your data such as Container
Optimization and OCR.
Attaching
extra information to each measurement such as SKU
barcode or box barcode is very easy with BeeVision. You can add
parameters with any name and the operator will be automatically
asked to provide that info with every measurement.
Cubiscan has rather outdated and difficult-to-use user
interface. BeeVision follows the innovations rapidly with the AI
age.
It would not be wrong to make an analogy when comparing
the differences of BeeVision, BeeVision is the Tesla of the industry
as opposed to gasoline cars- except in the case of Tesla being yet
too expensive. It is an accessible product for customers in terms of
price, which is innovative, open to development, and with a solid
vision.
If you want to get information about the
Tesla-like dimensioner devices, you can visit our website. For more
information, you can send an e-mail to info@beevision.ai as in every
sector, technology is rapidly advancing and growing in this sector
as well. The best way to adapt to speed and process and to invest in
the future is to have this technology; for example, owning a
BeeVision device and using BeeHive in harmony!
