The story

CYBRA was founded as a New York corporation in 1985. The company began operations as a technology-marketing company, but moved into a product-development company by the late 1980s. In 1990, CYBRA released a barcode labeling product called MarkMagic. MarkMagic is CYBRA's flagship product, and is used by over 2,000 companies. The latest version of MarkMagic is MarkMagic X, which was released in 2020. Along with being a standalone product, MarkMagic is built inside enterprise resource planning (ERP) and warehouse management system (WMS) applications including Manhattan Associates' WMi and WMOS. MarkMagic supports approximately 500 barcode printer types. In 2018, MarkMagic added support for packaging machinery and duplex printing.

CYBRA became an IBM Business Partner in June 1988. CYBRA became a public company in December 2006.

In 2008, CYBRA entered the RFID industry with the release of their passive RFID tagging software, EdgeMagic. Along with Key West Technologies LLC, in 2009 CYBRA formed a joint venture with the Waterborne Transportation Institute (WTI) of the Ministry of Transport of the People's Republic of China to create tracking software to improve the handling of maritime shipping containers. In 2016, CYBRA released Edgefinity IoT RFID software. The software provides applications for asset tracking, lone worker safety monitoring, work in process deployment, and supply chain management.
