Kio Setup Manager vs Estimote Deployment

The Kio Setup Manager is for onsite installation, configuration, and monitoring of Kontakt.io IoT devices; including beacons, tags, and gateways. The app is integrated with the Kontakt.io Kio Cloud platform to provide a mobile-optimized connection to your Kio Cloud account devices. When you sign into the app using your Kio Cloud credentials, the app displays your devices and searches for Kontakt.io devices in Bluetooth range of your mobile device. From the app, you can: - Complete the in-app guided setup and installation of Kontakt.io Starter Kits, Portal Beams, Portal Lights, and Reference Beacons. - Search for and filter devices. - Synchronize devices to apply Kio Cloud pending configuration updates. - Apply available firmware updates. - View and update primary device settings. - View device battery levels and perform a battery reset after a battery replacement. - View real-time telemetry data. - Perform general troubleshooting and diagnostics. - Kio Cloud subscribers can manage multiple devices simultaneously using the Bulk Manage/Edit feature. NOTE: your mobile device requires an internet connection and Bluetooth must be enabled. Kontakt.io is the industry leader in indoor environmental, location and occupancy services using Bluetooth® Low Energy (Bluetooth® LE). Our mission is to deliver human-building interfaces that provide people with delightful, useful, and safe indoor experiences to help make building work for people.

Estimote Deployment app lets you easily sync your beacons with Estimote Cloud. Conveniently edit your beacons' settings via Estimote Cloud web dashboard, which will create Pending Settings. Then, use the Deployment app to apply the new configuration to any and all beacons in range. You can also bulk-update their firmware at the same time. And just like that, your entire batch of beacons is ready to deploy!
