New features

Receive weekly place usage analytics directly in your inbox

We are thrilled to introduce a new Kisi report type: Weekly Place Analytics Reports. Now, you can effortlessly create and download your weekly place report with just a few simple steps. Your report will include:

  • Daily place usage
  • Heatmap of unique user unlocks
  • Weekly unique users
  • Unlocks by credential type
  • The top 5 most frequently used doors
  • Recent failed unlock attempts

Once your report is ready, you can easily download it as a PDF, making it accessible and shareable at your convenience. Additionally, you can also schedule it to be sent weekly to relevant team members.

Stay tuned for more advanced reports coming soon: Door permissions report, Presence reports, Filtered event exports, and Hardware status reports.

Access links enable visitors and temporary staff to unlock doors without needing a Kisi account or mobile app. With our latest update, admins can send access links via text messages, on both web and mobile, providing even greater convenience for authorized users to access spaces.

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: 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.
