Kioware Kullanıcı Yorumları ve İncelemeler

Needed a fast, easy-to-use solution for our employee timeclock system

Yorumlar: I was tasked with getting some tablets ready to act as the time clock kiosks for the new payroll system we were implementing. After some web searching the name KioWare kept popping up so I checked it out. The software was easy to set up, easy to manage, and has worked flawlessly. Needless to say payroll and HR were very pleased as the launch of our new system went very smoothly. I'll definitely come to KioWare again in the future if I get put on a project that requires a kiosk.

Artılar:

The configuration options were extremely intuitive. I didn't have to look up very much in the documentation in order to get a prototype up and running within 30 minutes. Copying configuration files across multiple devices was a snap once I had everything set up the way I wanted it, and licensing them was extremely reasonable price-wise. I've had virtually no issues from the software in nearly 6 months. The security audit feature was a nice touch, and really helped me out! I almost locked myself out of my device permanently if not for that!

Eksileri:

I think the only thing that was a bit disappointing would be a lack of mixed-mode attract screens. It'd be nice to be able to pull up either web pages, videos, or images. But to do that you'd need to be able to set up some kind of attract screen custom list, and then the software could cycle through that custom list as opposed to just cycling through local files. Very small gripe, though.

Kiosk made simple

Yorumlar: We use it for sign-in when guests visit our office. It presents a web form and does not allow access to any other sites, so by using our web form patrons are signed in easily with little to no intervention from us. We also use the "attract screen" feature to send an uninterruptible slideshow to a nearby monitor on the wall sharing news about our office.

Artılar:

Kioware offered the features I absolutely needed in kiosk software at a price that made it hard to say no. In addition to the basics I knew I was looking for it offered some advanced features and the configurability that we were also able to use it to solve the need for a rotating slideshow in our lobby and manage the assets over our network to easily swap out slides.

Eksileri:

The setup was a bit confusing at times, mostly using terms/phrases that I wasn't familiar with (being new to kiosks in general didn't help). But after some trial and error we got it up and running in a few hours.

Where do i start

Artılar:

I like that it is seamless after install.

Eksileri:

Where do i start, crashes all the time, super expensive.

KioWare Kiosks on our Retail Sales Floors

Yorumlar: The support team is off-the-charts awesome. I configured and installed our three kiosks (and two users) myself. It was not easy, and complicated by the online manual. I needed to interact with their support folks about six times. In every instance, my call was handled promptly, and I got the answers I needed quickly. They were able to login to my screen when needed and see exactly what was whacked. Absolutely top notch tech support.

Artılar:

The functionality. It is far more useful than we expected. The KIOCALL function, in particular. has assisted our store staff to interact with other stores to help customers who are right there with them.

Eksileri:

The setup and configuration. The online manual is tough to negotiate. Posting photos for merchandising through the "Attract Screen" process was one of our prime objectives. It works... but I wish it was easier and quicker to do.

Great for a lockdown browser with enough extra features to create a full kiosk.

Yorumlar: I used the PC software for a touch screen information kiosk based from our website. I used the android version to lockdown a tablet browser based time clock punch in solution. Both were effective, andriod did crash more than I would like.

Artılar:

Ease of setup on android. Pc was a little more complicated but more reliable.

Eksileri:

Doesn't auto launch in windows 10 unless you create a scheduled task.

Great Product, support and bang for the buck

Yorumlar: We use this for multiple kiosk check ins, easy setup and great support.

Artılar:

I like the ease of it for what we are using it for, which is a clock in/out for our staff in multiple locations. Easy to install and manage, also great support.

Eksileri:

I can’t say anything negative. Anytime I had an issue a quick phone call had easy support

KioWare for Kiosk-Mode across multiple users.

Yorumlar: The goal of the project we were working on was to set up a series of tablets in a locked kiosk mode, in which the users could log in and out of them on a website with no cached or saved data between sessions, which this software did perfectly.
Setting up the basic settings was straightforward, but trying to remotely deploy the software had a series of small hiccups, but it was all a series of settings we were overlooking on our part to do so.

Artılar:

The software, once set up, was very thorough and detailed for our purposes. It allowed for us to remotely monitor and update the devices as necessary, and only required us to physically secure our devices afterwards.

Eksileri:

When trying to configure the kiosks to remotely deploy changes as needed, we ran into minor issues which weren't thoroughly documented, but was resolved with a few exchanges with the KioWare support team.

Useful for exhibits or displays

Yorumlar: This product has solved the problem of allowing the public access to a computer terminal with out the fear that someone could change settings to the computer or navigate to harmful sites.

Artılar:

This software is great for museums that want to use a computer to power an exhibit but don't want guests to be able to access other functions of the computer. The set up is straightforward and can be as detailed as you want. It is also a great tool to control what websites can be visited on a public computer. For example one can set a home page of a website but restrict access to other links on the page.

Eksileri:

The only down side to this product is the cost. There may be cases where this product is overkill and there could be other ways to come up with a free solution.

Disappointed with this system

Yorumlar: We have several kiosks in our museum running kioware for visitors to use. The hardware is definitely a problem. I'm not sure how much the problems come from our developers or the software.

Artılar:

Overall functions in our museum setting.

Eksileri:

There are videos which often doesn't play.

Complete Kiosk Solution for Windows

Yorumlar: This is an excellent solution for Kiosk creation and management on Windows.

Artılar:

This review is for Kioware for Windows. Using Kioware you can completely lock down a Windows system allowing access only to a browser which can be configured to load a specified web page/web application on startup. Kioware has been very well designed in that it makes use of a dedicated Windows (non-admin) account to provide kiosk access. This is a very secure approach and Kioware enables keyboard sequences and keys to be blocked (including Ctrl-Alt-Del, Alt-Tab, and the Windows key) which prevents users from exiting the Kiosk mode. It also hides all toolbars. Advanced functionality is provided in the form of logging statistics, scheduling tasks (such as Kiosk sleep, startup and shutdown), crash detection and restart, and remote monitoring.

Eksileri:

The only nitpick that I have is that the kiosk exit sequence, which requires you to tap all four corners of the screen can inadvertently overlap with the buttons of the app running within the kiosk. This isn't an issue for kiosk users (who will not be entering the sequence) but it does require kiosk administrators to use pinpoint tapping.

Artılar:

ability to link to website, and keep our visitors from leaving that website. also the rotating images to help prevent the possibility of image burn on the tablet

Don´t buy it

Artılar:

Tje lack of stability..white screen several times, the support solution did not work in the long run, switched to another Kiosk app

Reliable and effective. Good support.

Makes an Android device into a decent kiosk - what more could you ask for? Pin access is good, and it seems to work well across different types of device. Support was forthcoming and helpful, even by phone if needed.

Some features are not immediately obvious.
