New features
Automate your reporting process with Scheduled Reports
As a Kisi admin, regular reports can help you enhance security, safety, and to understand how your places are used. That's why we're thrilled to introduce Scheduled Reports, designed to streamline your reporting process and guide you with insights into your facilities. Effortlessly automate user and event reports to be sent directly to the right people in a daily, weekly, or monthly cadence.

New integration: Cisco Webex meets Kisi
Do you use Cisco Webex at your organization? Now, you can integrate it with Kisi in less than a minute and receive instant Kisi event notifications right in your Webex channels. No more juggling apps or missing important updates.
Troubleshoot your hardware faster with updated controller details
To help you identify your exact device revision, we improved how controller details are shown under Hardware > Controllers:
- Revision number allows you to pinpoint your device's exact version, ensuring accurate compatibility and support.
- Connection type allows you to quickly see whether your device is currently connected via Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
Note: Kisi Controller Pro 2 devices with revision numbers below 553xxxxxx still support both Ethernet and Wi-Fi, but for higher revision numbers only Ethernet is available.
Further improvements with the Glofox integration
The Kisi & Glofox integration enables Glofox admins to synchronize users with their Kisi location and to automatically check users into Glofox whenever they unlock a door at that location. In a recent update, we extended access to credit pack users, allowing them to also utilize Kisi for entry.
