KioWare for Windows

KioWare for Windows is our most popular product used in over 75% of our client’s kiosks and purposed devices. KioWare ships with a full featured configuration tool that enables a fully functional kiosk deployment to be created quickly. KioWare can run browser-based kiosk applications or executable kiosk programs.

Key Features

Customizable Lockdown
KioWare enables you to lock down the user’s access to the device, network and browser to match your project requirements. Browser settings enable you to control what domains or pages users can view as well as define what, if any, files can be downloaded or copied to the computer.
User Session Management
KioWare manages user session to ensure all user data is removed when the user leaves the kiosk, content you specify is displayed to attract the next user, and the application is reset ready for the next user. Your application can concentrate on creating a great user experience.
Custom User Interface
KioWare provides an easy method to add custom toolbars with buttons to provide a variety of functions such as navigation, zooming, volume control, and custom links. The toolbars can be specifically branded to complement your application. Additional docked browsers can be easily configured to add digital signage or weather information to your kiosk.
External Device Integration
Kiosks often use unique devices (EMV credit card readers, bill acceptors/dispensers, RFID scanners, etc), so we provide an easy interface layer between your application and the device. KioWare is especially useful when the application is hosted on a remote server and cannot directly access the device.
Kiosk Automation
KioWare enables you to create access codes to ensure local staff can manage the kiosk without providing unsecure access. This includes power down/reboot of the PC, running scripts and navigating to a URL. In addition, you can create scheduled tasks that automatically perform tasks, such as allowing the display to sleep at night, rebooting the PC, and executing scripts.
Assistive Technologies
Self-service kiosks need to be accessible by all, so KioWare is tightly integrated with JAWS screen reader technology and Storm Interface accessible keypads. KioWare will convert an accessible application into an accessible kiosk application.
Kiosk Management
Especially for large deployments, the ability to organize, monitor, manage, and report on your kiosks becomes critical for the success of the project. KioWare Server and KioCloud provide robust remote kiosk management capability, with flexible hosting and pricing options.
