Deployment was a breeze: Since MMPI is web based, all of our users (remote and on-prem), had immediate access to printing and PDF. Over the last 6 months our non-technical team began leveraging MarkMagic Conditions to handle customer specific format requests which has been an unexpected benefit of the system. Previously, format changes would take a few days and require a programmer’s involvement, now they take just a few minutes which makes us happy and our notoriously impatient customers very happy. > > **Cons**: While the main MarkMagic WAS can be installed on any platform, the JMagic design tool must be installed on a Windows PC. Not a big deal, but we have some Linux users who want nothing to do MS. I understand CYBRA is releasing a web-based design tool soon, so any device/platform with a browser can be used to design. > > We work with 100+ Fulfillment centers around the country and are adding new ones every month. Many FCs already have thermal printers and software from various brands like Zebra, Datamax, Sato, Toshiba, Intermec, etc. For various reasons we needed to consolidate their printing process and streamline labeling. In short, one MarkMagic instance satisfied all our requirements. All 100+ FCs print from the same MMPI instance which supports all the FC label printing along with Accounting and E-Commerce PDFs. I can’t begin to calculate the amount of time, effort and money we’ve saved. ----- ### "MarkMagic continues to stand the test of time" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *28 October 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Once you know how the software works, it is not too hard to edit quickly to get the results you want. When an issue does come up, customer support is excellent as I get a response quickly from knowledgable people. > > **Cons**: There is not a good way of viewing data fields already used within a format. If I need to use a miscellaneous field for a value, I can't do a search in the format easily to know if the field is used. If that were added, that would save a considerable amount of time when modifying existing complicated label formats so I wouldn't have to resort to SQL to determine field usage. > > Excellent\! I've used MarkMagic for decades now and believe it is a flagship product for any application on an AS/400. ----- ### "This review only applies to jMagic" — 3.0/5 > **Richard** | *2 August 2019* | Sporting Goods | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It works with i-Series. Does pretty much what I need it to do, albeit with a little more work than I like. > > **Cons**: UI needs work, missing a lot of simple editing tools or they're hidden and I can't find them? For example, the issue I had was with increasing font size on multiple items. Couldn't left click to see the option and also wasn't available on quick edit. Only after I emailed support did they inform me I could hit the +/- keys on the keyboard. Other issues: can't align objects by distributing spacing, eg select 5 objects and space them evenly. When you edit font, it only shows CENTER as the option, but when you align multiple products, CENTER is not an option? As I'm using jMagic, you should implement standard windows shortcut keys, for example, CTRL+C to copy, or be able to zoom with CTRL+mouse scroll. Often when I click on an object, it moves slightly. Would like the ability to turn on (not import) grids and snap to them. ----- ### "MarkMagic for Manhattan WMi" — 5.0/5 > **Sriram** | *14 September 2025* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: MarkMagic software shipped with Manhattan WMi. Easy to design label formats. Out of box RFID support. Good Customer support. Seamless upgarde. > > **Cons**: Difficult to troubleshoot issues without the help of their customer support. Hard to understand how the ZPL tags are created in the background. > > Good product to use for your shipping software. One time setup and good to go if you are not changing label formats frequently. ----- ### "Good Review" — 5.0/5 > **George** | *3 September 2025* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use configuring Labels, ability to add and delete fields and constants. Of the times I have had to call Customer Support, you were always helpful in resolving my issues. > > **Cons**: Deploying to remote sites and maintaining multiple versions due to remote sites at different levels. > > Very Good. I would recommend it to anyone needing custom and very detailed Labels. We currently support over thirty different label formats. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/118725/markmagic?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/118725/markmagic) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
