In many cases, yes. Kisi works with most electronic locks and is designed to support flexible migration paths that allow organizations to modernize access control without replacing their entire infrastructure. If you already have electronic locks in place, you may only need to add a Kisi Controller Pro to connect those locks to Kisi’s cloud-based access control platform. This lets you manage access remotely through Kisi while keeping your existing lock hardware. If you are migrating from a legacy access control system, the minimum upgrade is typically a Kisi Controller Pro 2 with a Wiegand board. That setup lets Kisi work with existing readers, controllers, wiring, and credentials, while giving you cloud-based management and mobile unlocking through the Kisi app. Depending on your setup, you can keep some or all of your existing hardware and move to Kisi at your own pace.

Traditional access control systems often rely on on-premise servers, legacy software, manual administration, and complex maintenance requirements. Kisi takes a cloud-first approach that allows teams to manage access remotely, automate user management, monitor activity in real time, and control multiple locations from a single platform. In addition to access control, Kisi brings together visitor management, video surveillance, bookings, analytics, integrations, mobile credentials, and other physical security workflows into one system, helping organizations reduce complexity and improve operational visibility.

Yes. Kisi is a cloud-native access control platform that allows organizations to manage users, permissions, schedules, activity logs, and integrations through a web dashboard or mobile app. Unlike traditional access control systems that rely on local servers and manual updates, Kisi centralizes management in the cloud, making it easier to manage security across multiple locations and respond to changes in real time.
