As companies grow, their labeling needs do too. When you need to add automation, traceability, or centralized management, it’s time to explore TEKLYNX enterprise label management solutions.
Automation is often the first step into the world of enterprise label management. With SENTINEL label print automation software, you can eliminate manual label printing processes.
SENTINEL receives data from your business system, maps it to your label templates, and automatically prints to the correct label printer—no clicks needed! As our flagship label automation product, SENTINEL is flexible enough to print from any data source, including database records, file exports, and REST API calls.

Adding security and traceability to the labeling process is critical for companies with high quality standards, especially in regulated industries. LABEL ARCHIVE label security and traceability software keeps labels accurate by enforcing user roles and approval processes.
Users are typically defined as designers, approvers, or printers—though the roles can vary to meet any organization’s needs. Designers create and edit labels. Approvers are typically quality and compliance professionals and can reject or approve label designs. Printers can only print approved labels and cannot edit any label designs.

As companies grow, labeling can become scattered and inconsistent. TEKLYNX CENTRAL centralized label management software brings label design, automation, traceability, and printing into one central solution.
TEKLYNX CENTRAL includes CODESOFT Enterprise, SENTINEL, and LABEL ARCHIVE, as well as a browser-based label printing interface. Users across locations can securely log in and print labels through a simplified print screen using business logic.
