About IDAutomation:
IDAutomation.com, Inc.,
(IDAutomation) was founded in 1996 and incorporated
in 1998. IDAutomation is dedicated to providing a professional line
of hardware and software components for the automation of identification
and is currently located in Suite 300 of the building at
550 N. Reo St. in Tampa, Florida.
IDAutomation's products are affordable for small and medium businesses,
yet scalable enough to be used by large corporations. Over 70% of Fortune
100 companies use IDAutomation products to automate their businesses.
Partnerships between IDAutomation and Business Objects, IBM, FileMaker,
AIM Global
and Microsoft Corporation allow collaboration to provide fast and reliable
components for related products and access to pre-release versions of
applications and operating systems for testing.
Internal Systems:
IDAutomation is able to provide employees the same capabilities at
home as in the office, and keep operating costs down by leveraging new
technologies such as IP phones from
Commx and web-enabling all applications with
redundant servers
in multiple locations. This allows the staff of IDAutomation to relocate
in the event of a hurricane and still provide the same great service
and support. IDAutomation outsources
its warehousing and shipping of barcode scanners and software on
CD which reduces overhead.
Because overhead is low and employees can work from anywhere, customers
can be assured that IDAutomation will be in business for many years
to come and will continue to provide quality support and upgrades.
Product Testing:
IDAutomation uses strict testing procedures that are followed before
any product release. Thorough testing of barcode components is critical
because bugs may appear in the symbology or in the component architecture
itself. In addition to the testing procedures used by the developer
during and after development, a developer that was not involved on the
project performs several final tests before passing the product to QA
for final testing and release.
Company Processes:
Processes and procedures at IDAutomation are documented to ensure
a proper information transfer during employee / contractor turnover,
which is similar to the procedures required for ISO 9001 certification.
Product Licensing:
IDAutomation keeps a record of customer licenses when products are
ordered. To ensure data integrity, the license database and all other
company data is replicated (copied) to multiple systems and copied to
a remote (off-site) location. Additional measures are taken to
ensure privacy.
The Staff:
IDAutomation is comprised of individuals with a broad spectrum of
expertise in business solutions, automation, support, software development
and marketing. Employees are motivated to provide quality customer service
and support with incentive programs such as bonuses, profit sharing,
401K plans and group health
insurance from Superior Benefits, Inc.
