As a software application, CribMaster is by far the most robust and feature packed application available.

CribMaster supports nearly 30 different POU devices. We have selected these devices based on customer feedback and an ongoing effort to be the standardized software application to handle all indirect material, no matter where it is stored or how it is dispensed. |
| Q: |
When would RFID be appropriate for me to consider for my facility? |
| A: |
RFID is often a good solution for indirect material management. RFID is NOT a high security solution so there must be a manageable level of employee compliance.

| Q: |
I have heard that RFID tags are expensive. Have those prices started to decrease and how do you manage the cost of the tags? |
| A: |
RFID tag prices have come down dramatically in the last 1 1/2 years but we have found a way to take the cost of the tag out of the equation by re-using the Gen2 passive tags. To find out how we do this, contact your CribMaster representative. 1.888.419.1399 |
