## Reviews

### "Needed a fast, easy-to-use solution for our employee timeclock system" — 5.0/5

> **Richard** | *28 September 2018* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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\!
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> 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.

### "Kiosk made simple" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *5 October 2018* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> 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.

### "Where do i start" — 1.0/5

> **Nazar** | *6 February 2019* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like  that it is seamless after install.
> 
> **Cons**: Where do i start, crashes all the time, super expensive.

### "KioWare Kiosks on our Retail Sales Floors" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 September 2018* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 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.
> 
> **Cons**: 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.
> 
> 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.

### "Great for a lockdown browser with enough extra features to create a full kiosk." — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 September 2018* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of setup on android. Pc was a little more complicated but more reliable.
> 
> **Cons**: Doesn't auto launch in windows 10 unless you create a scheduled task.
> 
> 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.
