Sonaria Launches Advanced RFID Solutions at Zebra Sales Kick Off

In January 2026, Sonaria, a cutting-edge RFID software platform, made a significant debut as an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) during Zebra's annual Sales Kick Off (SKO) event in Brighton, Michigan. This launch highlights Sonaria’s commitment to enhancing operational visibility and efficiency in manufacturing and warehouse operations with its robust solutions.

Sonaria offers two key products: Sonaria Manufacturing and Sonaria Warehouse. These offerings are specifically designed to leverage Zebra's advanced RFID technology, enabling customers to achieve real-time insights, increase accuracy, and drive measurable operational improvements.

Transforming Operations with RFID Technology

Sonaria's modular and role-based software platform integrates seamlessly with Zebra's hardware, including fixed readers, handheld devices, and mobile interfaces. This integration allows manufacturers and warehouse operators to transition past rudimentary piloting and spreadsheet models to sophisticated production-grade RFID deployments that deliver quick returns on investment.

Sonaria Manufacturing provides comprehensive traceability across various processes such as raw materials, work-in-progress (WIP), and finished goods. It empowers companies with real-time visibility into product movements and production stages, substantially improving accuracy, reducing errors, and enhancing overall operational visibility, all without disrupting existing workflows.

Sonaria Warehouse, on the other hand, enhances operations across inbound, inventory, and outbound activities. The solution expedites the dock-to-stock process, boosts inventory accuracy significantly, reduces the burden of manual cycle counting, and minimizes shipping errors. By converting raw RFID data into actionable intelligence, Sonaria equips warehouse teams to enhance their accuracy and operational efficiency in daily activities.

Early Successes and Key Metrics

Early implementations of Sonaria have demonstrated substantial operational improvements. Notable statistics from initial deployments include:

• - A remarkable 70-80% increase in speed for dock-to-stock in RFID-enabled receiving workflows.
• - Inventory accuracy soaring to nearly 99.9% for tagged items.
• - Up to a 70% reduction in manual cycle counting efforts.
• - Real-time tracking of WIP and inventory status that doesn’t disrupt ongoing operations.

These impressive metrics affirm the efficacy of Sonaria’s solutions and highlight the benefits of utilizing Zebra's sophisticated RFID infrastructure in operational settings.

Bridging the Gap in RFID Deployments

John Wirthlin, the Senior Product and Marketing Manager at Sonaria, emphasizes that many RFID deployment challenges stem from inadequate software design rather than the technology itself. “RFID isn’t the issue in manufacturing and warehouses—deployments fail when the underlying software isn’t operationally focused,” he explained. “Sonaria was crafted to bridge that gap, converting raw RFID data into actionable real-time insights and measurable outcomes that businesses can depend on.”

As a Zebra ISV, Sonaria fosters channel-led engagements, supporting a variety of solution packages that cater to both flexible pricing and strategic goals aligned with customer key performance indicators (KPIs). This strategic approach is designed to accelerate customer success with RFID solutions that are not only scalable and repeatable but also immediately production-ready.

Conclusion

Sonaria is poised to redefine industry standards as it becomes widely available for Zebra sellers and channel partners. By providing a flexible, enterprise-grade RFID software platform, Sonaria aims to catalyze customer outcomes in manufacturing and warehousing environments, driving efficiency and operational success.
