Their IBM Premier Business Partner status makes them particularly qualified to distribute MarkMagic and EdgeMagic software.
"We are excited to have Life IT join us as an international MarkMagic distributor," says Harold Brand, CYBRA's President. "We believe their strong presence in Europe, along with their deep understanding of the iSeries platform and their proven integration expertise will open up many new opportunities to expand the use of CYBRA's products in Europe and the UK."
"The acquisition means we will be able to offer everything a customer needs to implement identity technology including bar code scanners, RFID readers, printers, and bar code labels for a wide range of applications such as asset tracking, stock control, compliance, and time and attendance," explains Jill Sherratt, chief executive, Life IT.
