"In attending The Warehouse Workshop at PathGuide, their engineers helped us focus on the best ways to operate the system and how to get started using the RF terminals to track inventory in our warehouse. As a result, we left much more knowledgeable and better equipped to leverage the value of our warehouse automation investment as soon as it was installed."
