RECOMMENDED PRODUCTS FOR HOUSING AUTHORITIES
Unlike traditional kiosks, our self-service products offer the complete package with both hardware and software expertly integrated for a seamless user experience. Our hassle-free on-boarding process ensures that you receive a fully configured system that’s ready to use right out of the box. Plus, our expert team will train your staff to use our intuitive kiosk management software portal, empowering them to make updates and adjustments to your kiosks with ease.
1. OFFICE EXTENSION KIOSK
Office Extension is true to its name. It is a self-service extension of your office. The interface software, ZAMOK™, can be set up for your customers to do many functions on their own, enabling users to pay bills, fill out forms, look up records, and scan and submit documents. It also communicates to you and your staff with weekly reports, real-time notifications and emails of customers’ submittals.
Now, with the release of version 3.0, the Office Extension can do even more, from translations to recognition of QR and barcodes along with more controls on the layout of the interface.
2. LAAS, THE ULTIMATE VISITOR MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Number two for courts is the LAAS, an advanced visitor management system. The list of tasks that LAAS can perform is impressive: Check-in, name tags, look up and call people or departments, text messaging, wayfinding, as well as convenience features such as Wi-Fi access, local information, event calendar and quick help for deliveries. We wrap it all up with advanced translation of over 160 languages, accessibility contrast features and a lower menu for ADA compliance.  Â
Not impressed? It will also recognize humans and welcome them! Â
3. INTERPRESTATION
Live, on-demand translation services paid for by the minute. No more looking for a translator of one language who may be working on something else, or scheduling an interpreter to come in for a 2-hour minimum next week.Â
The Interspretation provides a live video feed on demand to interpreters of over 240 languages as well as American sign language. Our customers all agree that not only is the kiosk a cost-saving tool but also saves the time of having to schedule interpreters and for customers to come back. The ADA-compliant hardware not only is tamper-proof but provides handsets for better sound clarity, cleanliness and durability in public areas.
