KIOSK Information Systems (KIOSK) announces its’ latest release of KIOSK CORE, providing new advances in kiosk network management software.
The software solution delivers the advanced monitoring capabilities for real-time kiosk network visibility, paired with a full dashboard of remote management tools.
KIOSK CEO Tom Weaver explains, “The CORE platform goes well beyond typical industry standards of remote monitoring. It’s designed for full-function kiosk network management, not just monitoring. KIOSK’s Software Developers created CORE as the cornerstone feature for every software solution KIOSK provides, which has resulted in an impressive set of off-the-shelf features. Despite the sophistication of the feature set, our developers succeeded in keeping it equally intuitive to both administrators and IT developers.”
The KIOSK CORE SERVER resides in the cloud, and serves as a web-based control center that manages application development, registration, and provides visual monitoring tools and event analysis. CORE CLIENT resides on the kiosk enabling communication with CORE SERVER. CORE solution features support one of four dominant benefits:
- Reducing development cycles and field service costs
- Simplifying network & deployment management
- Maximizing kiosk uptime
- Streamlining reporting and analytics
The “anchor features” of CORE include standard items like kiosk registration, monitoring, content update, and health check. Unique features such as firmware / device driver record management and update capabilities are one of many additions KIOSK has made to cut service and support tails associated with high volume or nationwide deployments.
Aside from management features, the key advantage of KIOSK CORE is the extensibility of the architecture. KIOSK developers mandated common software design patterns to simplify customer extensions at all levels of the architecture - ultimately addressing reduced development cost, complexity, and timelines.
