MyLoneWorkers is a real-time online management system based on NFC and QR-code tags use. To make things easy for you, in this article we will help you choose between NFC or QR-codes by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of each technology.

NFC is a wireless technology enabling the exchange of information (text, numbers, etc.) between two NFC devices. NFC tags consist of tiny microchips with little aerials which can keep data to transfer to another NFC device, such as a smartphone.
