Terminals for data collection, which can be found on the Ukrainian market, can be conditionally divided into 3 groups.
- The first group is, of course, such global brands, leaders with an excellent reputation, such as: Honeywell, Datalogic, TSD Motorola. Among the products of these brands you can find optimal solutions for all areas of work.
- The second group is terminals, the main advantages of which are nothing more than high quality and functionality - Nordic ID, Casio, Pidion, Opticon. But there are also weaknesses. For example, innovation is clearly not their strong point. The main focus of the developers of these brands is focused on the already known technologies and their implementation in updated versions.
- And finally, the third group is mostly brands from Taiwan and China, for example Bitatek, Compos or Argox. Their quality is less impressive than that of the brands from the first two groups.

In the third price segment, only one company can be distinguished - Argox.

The advantage of collecting data in this way is comfortable work with warehouse facilities, assembly and production lines, with courier delivery and parking business. This list can be continued for a very long time. But all the advantages of the work of staff with mobile computers can only be verified through personal experience. After all, each team chooses its own tactics of working process.
What advantages does the client get from working with such terminals?
The main advantage is a rather sharp increase in the efficiency of the personnel who will use this equipment.
