The year 2023 is drawing to a close, the festive Christmas period and a new year 2024 lie ahead of us. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you on behalf of the entire PROVISIO and SiteKiosk Online team!

We can look back on a successful year in which we mastered many challenges together, implemented innovative kiosk applications and made many (new) customers happy. It is fascinating to see how versatile, creative and effective our kiosk software is used in a wide variety of environments, areas and scenarios!

In 2023, we celebrated the first anniversary of our new kiosk software SiteKiosk Online. For us, this small anniversary is a major milestone and a real reason to celebrate!

The high product quality and the wide-ranging application possibilities of SiteKiosk Online are the focus of our motivation.  For the coming year 2024, many more innovations and features are already in the starting blocks that will further improve SiteKiosk Online.

We look forward to an exciting and successful 2024 together with you!

A core function of SiteKiosk Online is the effective protection of digital kiosk applications against manipulation and system outages. As software, SiteKiosk Online also takes over the design, centralised management and real-time monitoring of the digital media technology used. In combination with fire protection-optimised and certified digital info displays from gekartel AG, there are many new possible uses for digital media technology in sensitive areas such as public spaces. Digital building panels in the housing and property industry are among these applications and are installed in sensitive areas such as entrance areas, stairwells or escape routes.

The German company gekartel AG has focussed on the fire hazard potential and the risk of fire arising from digital media technology. On the one hand, components such as a light metal housing with a very low fire load are used. An expert opinion from MPA Dresden GmbH certifies that there is no increased fire load due to the fire protection monitors with touch. In accordance with DIN EN 13823 and DIN EN 13501, complete fulfilment of all criteria for the classification of non-combustible and flame-retardant building materials (for building material class A2-S1, D0 or B-S1, D0) has been certified. In addition, gekartel has added the first VdS 6024-certified series devices with device-integrated fire protection to its product portfolio.

Classified as electrical appliances, digital domestic panels entail an increased risk of fire. Around 33% of all building fires are caused by electrical appliances. This percentage is the leading cause of fire. This risk of causing a fire makes the digital whiteboard a potential source of danger, which in the worst case can lead to major building fires and thus endanger human life.

In close cooperation with JOB GmbH, a device-integrated self-extinguishing system was therefore developed for the Digital House Panel, the main component of which is the “smallest fire extinguisher in the world”, the E-Bulb from the JOB Group.

The extinguishing system consists of a small ampoule filled with extinguishing agent that bursts at a certain trigger temperature, releasing the extinguishing agent in the housing and extinguishing the fire immediately. At the same time, the power supply in the appliance is interrupted.

The integrated fire extinguishing system therefore enables fire protection-compliant operation of digital house panels in sensitive areas in accordance with VdS 6024. This significantly minimises the risk of a device fire in escape and rescue routes, for example, and virtually eliminates the risk of fire spreading through electrical devices.

Changes to products, licenses and prices

SiteRemote and SiteCaster are no longer listed under these names. However, the functions are still available under SiteKiosk as an all-in-one solution. Accordingly, the remote management features of SiteRemote are grouped under Manage and the CMS features of SiteCaster under Show. New customers and regular customers who have already used SiteRemote and SiteCaster will be redirected to SiteKiosk Cloud. This license covers all features of the previous license.

Changes to SiteKiosk Windows: As of August 16, 2021, the Basic version will no longer be separated in the program. SiteKiosk Windows now includes the complete feature set of the two former versions Basic and Plus. The Non-profit version of SiteKiosk Windows has also been revised and has the same feature set as the SiteKiosk Windows license. Due to the extended functionality of the SiteKiosk products, adjustments to the license prices have been made, which you can find in the price list.
