What Bitly customers are saying
Our goal was to implement a system that would not interrupt the gameplay experience when a new update was announced, and we found QR Codes to be the perfect answer.
Since we started using QR Codes, we’ve seen quite a few benefits! Beside it being a more COVID-friendly approach, the biggest win is time saving—not having to wait for a printer, manually building our training packets, or manually collecting and inputting evaluation responses.
Bitly is extremely useful for cutting down URLs into customisable links and QR Codes.
The most useful tool is scan tracking, so we know if the codes are scanned and we are able to check the traffic for our links. For us as a publisher of educational books for children, QR Codes are the bridge that will provide students and teachers with complementary information on learning issues.
Bitly is a simple, fast and functional platform for creating QR Codes and short links.
The platform’s intuitive design makes it simple to create custom short links and QR Codes, which can be customized to suit your brand or individual preference.
