Challenges
Jordi Bolós, a private developer, wanted to design a software application that analyzes food labels, but didn’t have the PDF libraries to do it. He tried IronPDF, but like many other programming tools, it wasn’t budget-friendly. “I struggled with the price,” he said. “Most of the PDF libraries on the market have a cost, and after a short free trial period, you’re required to pay for a license to continue developing.” Jordi needed an affordable development suite to manipulate PDFs, so he turned to Syncfusion® Essential Studio®.
Solution
With Essential Studio WinForms and WPF, Jordi was able to build his food label analyzer. “Basically, my program gets the text of a food label in PDF format and checks if the allergens are written in bold,” he said. “If not, it highlights them in yellow.”
Essential Studio was seamlessly integrated into Jordi’s existing system and significantly lightened his development workload. “It made things easy,” he said. “You can reduce the amount of code you write with their libraries.”
And with the dedicated customer service team, Jordi was supported every step of the way. “The support department helped me when I faced some problems,” he said. “They release patches quite often to fix errors that are reported by users.”
Essential Studio gives users access to a variety of customer service resources, such as the community forum, knowledge base, feature request portal, and 24/7 chatbot—ensuring every user has round-the-clock support.
