2D codes allow us to store significantly more data in the same area. This is especially important when we need to use small label sizes. Another major advantage is the ability to read the code even if it is incomplete. In 2D codes, it is possible to encode up to 2000 characters, compared to only a few dozen characters in a 1D barcode. The scanning module of a 2D scanner does not have moving parts, which greatly reduces the costs associated with potential maintenance and repairs.
