The Swiftium Barcode Scanner offered by SmartSource rentals is becoming increasingly popular with exhibitors and associations hosting events. This device is a blackberry based lead retrieval unit that is housed in a small sled with a powerful scanner. The blackberry processes an attendee’s information when their badge is scanned (usually with a 2d barcode) with the swiftium device. The data is stored for future follow up or sales opportunities.

One advantage of the Swiftium lead retrieval scanner from SmartSource is the availability of real time lead data. Since the device uses a blackberry, it is possible to transmit data from the trade show or exhibit floor in real time. This data can be accessed and viewed over the web from other locations or employees. This flexibility gives companies more options and access to follow up with their data and view the overall impact at the event.

SmartSource recently added a new 3D Swiftium Barcode Scanner model to it’s website to give a more up close and personal view of the device. Using your mouse you can click on the device and rotated it any way you want to get a better view/idea of the physical device.

For information on providing lead retrieval scanners and attendee tracking at your next trade show, convention or event - call SmartSource at 800.888.8686 to connect to the office closest to your location. You can also view more information on Lead Retrieval & Attendee tracking on our website or submit a quote request online.
