Alpha Card Systems has released a new software platform geared towards smaller business and organizations wishing to design and print top-quality ID cards. Alpha Card Light photo ID software comes at an affordable price, and provides intuitive tools that make it easy for users to produce professional IDs featuring text, logos and graphics, barcodes, and even magnetic stripes.

While other entry-level ID card software programs are limited in their feature-sets, Alpha Card Light boasts such user-friendly tools as pre-defined templates, rich text formatting, conditional design elements, and integrated photo capture. This simplifies the card design process so even first-time users can design and print professional photo IDs on demand. The software also includes a standalone database that can store up to 200 records, allowing for quick and easy data entry and management of cardholder info.

Alpha Card Light is the ideal starter software solution for applications ranging from student and employee ID programs, to membership clubs, loyalty programs, and more. The software is compatible with all brand-name ID card printers, and works on the following operating systems: Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista (32-bit only).

Since Alpha Card Light is part of the Alpha Card software suite, upgrading to higher-end editions such as Alpha Card Standard, Professional, or Enterprise is a seamless process. In fact, users can upgrade their software at any time, while maintaining their existing records.
