Pros
- Old-fashioned book-based systems are difficult to use, people provide fake info and peoples info is exposed. A digital system provides an audit trail that’s easy to create and access
- South African Vehicle Licence Discs (SAVL) & South African Drivers Licenses (SADL) are digitally scanned, thus eliminating errors* * A quick scan of the SAVL disc and the SADL is all it takes to collect the necessary information to record their visit to the facility.
- Real-time reports - Know what happens when it happens.

- having the complete barcode in the viewfinder
- image does not blur (keep your hand steady).
