The main advantage of Cotag readers is their ability to read "active" cards and tags. Active cards and tags provide truly hands-free access control - ideal where staff are often pushing carts or carrying things.
The main advantage of using proximity card readers is that cards only need to be held near the reader in order to be read. This means less wear and tear on cards and more convenience for system users.
The main advantage of smart card readers is that they can read multi-purpose cards - for example, the same card can be used both for acess purposes and as a cash card at the company canteen.
The main advantage of magnetic stripe card readers is that the cards they read are very inexpensive. Magnetic stripe card readers are most often used to expand existing systems based on magstripe technology.
