OAL Announce Seamless Integration with NiceLabel

OAL is excited to announce the release of a full and seamless integration to NiceLabel as part of our label and date code verification system, OAL Connected. 

“At OAL we understand the pressures that food manufacturers are under to meet the label requirements of their retailers. We believe that this integration will not only support them in automating labelling and verification but will provide a much better user experience for our customers,” commented Jake Norman, Sales Director, OAL.

For businesses currently using the end-of-life Dataguard label printing software, OAL and Nicelabel offer a proven switching path. Join other fresh produce businesses including Wealmoor and Worldwide Fruit who have already benefited from switching to OAL for a robust label printing solution.

Why NiceLabel?

For those unfamiliar, NiceLabel is one of the most respected names in the label design industry. The solution provides a comprehensive and powerful suite of tools to help manufacturers create, print and manage labels that are both high-quality and meet rigorous industry standards. 

“Working with site teams, we’ve been able to significantly reduce the number of label design templates, simplifying their process. NiceLabel is easy to use and provides compliance with retailer codes of practice” shared Faye Louch, OAL Trainer.

How OAL integrate with NiceLabel?

We have integrated NiceLabel with the OAL system in the same way as other label design software such as Clarisoft and Markem Colos.

When an operator selects a job on the OAL system, the variable field data is pulled from the OAL Master Product Database and integrated into your template design created in NiceLabel. This then instructs and controls the printer, ensuring the right information is printed on the label. The integration works for both offline and online printing with the OAL system monitoring and alerting if printers enter fault status in accordance with retailer codes of practice.

The Value This Delivers for You

We believe this integrated solution provides significant value for those looking to migrate from Dataguard or anyone looking for a comprehensive and intuitive labelling solution. The benefits include:

A Unified Process: Users can design a label in NiceLabel, and then seamlessly verify its integrity and compliance using our verification system. This means a smoother workflow and reduced risk of error.

Enhanced Efficiency: The need for multiple systems or manual data entry is eliminated. When you design a label in NiceLabel, the details are automatically synchronised with the OAL master product database.

Greater Accuracy: With the automated synchronisation between the two platforms, you reduce the risk of oversight or data discrepancies; what you design is what you verify.
