### "Excellent Experience"

September 18, 2024

5.0

We've been using Key cafe for 1 year, we use the item multiple times a day and we really value the tracking possibility and the accessibility

Pros

Keycafe has been a game-changer for our key management. The badge system and online platform give us excellent visibility over key usage, which is essential for a team our size.

Cons

So far, we haven't found any drawbacks. We're very happy with how it's going.

Keycafe a été d'une grande utilité pour notre camping afin de gérer les arrivées tardives en dehors des horaires d'ouverture de la réception.

Pros

Fonctionnement intuitif et facile tant pour les professionnels que pour les clients

Cons

Pour les clients étrangers n'ayant pas toujours d'accès internet ou ne pouvant pas recevoir les SMS cela est difficile d'utilisation.

### "Key Cafe - My First Choice for Key Management"

July 29, 2024

4.0

Pros

The Key Cafe is such an efficient system to use! Our main users are university students, and having them be able to access their keys in such an accessible manner has been a life-changer for our organization! Additionally, it helps keep track of our keys, while also keeping students accountable for returning their keys. This is very important to us as we facilitate and manage numerous spaces across campus, and thus are responsible for many sets of keys. I have also been incredibly impressed by the Key Cafe's customer service. Everyone I have thus far interacted with has been extremely helpful, and always willing to provide support wherever necessary. As a new user, this makes me feel appreciated and valued as a customer! Lastly, has provided a new sense of innovation into our organization, and has made us leaders in technical improvements across campus. Our clients put more trust in us and thus, choose our systems over others. I can't thank Key Cafe enough for their service!

Cons

We had a bit of trouble connecting the Key Cafe to our Wifi. The key pad was not very clear on instruction and required a lot of time and effort on our end to ensure the system had internet access. Additionally, while it has not happened yet, there may be a need to troubleshoot the system if the power in the building goes out. It unfortunately will be a timely process for me to get the system back up and running again.

October 30, 2024

Has help me manage my spare vehicle fleet with ease. No more guessing on who has what vehicle. Customer service responds quickly, and are super helpful. 5 star all the way.

Pros

Very easy to use, easy setup, and helps just manage our spare vehicle fleet.

Cons

If you don't get the keys in just right the doors will jam. Maybe make a little bigger compartments but it is usually caused by user error not product error.

### "Système simple mais efficace de gestion de clefs"

September 5, 2024

Le système nous facilite la gestion des accès pour les intérimaires qui interviennent dans notre établissement. Nous le recommandons aux autres structures de notre association qui rencontrent les mêmes problématiques.

Cons

\- Le coût relativement élevé pour une structure de notre taille

### "Keycafe is very useful for properties in Real Estate"

July 23, 2024

4.0

Overall it has been great so far and no issues - the keycafe will jam sometimes if a keycard is placed inside incorrectly.

Pros

I am able to easily manage the keys within different departments and tracking is critical while we scale.

Cons

The UX could be improved online given that i use 80% of it on my computer, compared to the app.

A peg system was not working for us. People would take whatever peg that was accessible on the board ending up with another user's peg.

### "KeyCafe is Extremely User Friendly "

August 8, 2024

5.0

Overall, the ordering and setup process was excellent. Customer service was extremely helpful, responding to all our questions promptly. The product is straightforward to use and perfectly meets our needs.

Pros

The system is user friendly and allows us to easily grant customers access to specific keys. In the event of an offline issue, there are straightforward troubleshooting steps to retrieve the key. The setup process was also simple.

Cons

We don’t have many negative comments, but we did find that the key boxes are quite small. Some vehicles use fobs or cards for activation, and not all of these fit comfortably in the boxes.

### "Je ne peux que recommander vivement cette solution innovante et pratique pour la gestion des clés."

June 28, 2024

5.0

Je ne peux que recommander vivement cette solution innovante et pratique pour la gestion des clés. Keycafé ne cesse de se développer et d'améliorer ses produits. De nouvelles fonctionnalités sont régulièrement ajoutées, rendant l'utilisation de la borne encore plus simple et intuitive. J'apprécie particulièrement l'application mobile qui me permet de gérer mes clés à distance et de recevoir des notifications en temps réel. Un impact client indéniable L'utilisation de Keycafé a eu un impact positif indéniable sur ma clientèle. Je n'ai plus besoin de me soucier de donner ou de recevoir des clés, ce qui me fait gagner un temps précieux. De plus, je me sens plus en sécurité grâce au système de contrôle d'accès sécurisé de la borne. En résumé, Keycafé est une solution incontournable pour tous ceux qui souhaitent simplifier la gestion de leurs clés. Le service client est excellent, les produits sont en constante amélioration et l'impact client est indéniable. Je recommande vivement Keycafé à tous ceux qui cherchent une solution fiable, pratique et sécurisée. 5 étoiles sur 5 !

Pros

Un service client hors pair Dès le début, j'ai été impressionné par la qualité du service client proposé par Keycafé. L'équipe est toujours disponible, réactive et à l'écoute pour répondre à mes questions et me guider dans l'utilisation de la borne. Ils sont vraiment soucieux de la satisfaction de leurs clients et cela se ressent dans leur approche.

Cons

Si j'apprécie la flexibilité et les fonctionnalités offertes par Keycafé, je regrette l'absence d'intégration native avec le PMS Misterbooking que j'utilise actuellement. Cela signifie que je dois gérer manuellement la synchronisation des données entre les deux systèmes L'accès à l'API de Keycafé est ouvert, cela implique un développement interne pour l'intégrer à mon PMS Misterbooking. Cela requiert des compétences techniques et des ressources supplémentaires

From the initial quote to implementation, Customer service has been fantastic.

Pros

This system is critical for assisting in key tracking when it comes to our facilities that have 26 beds with each having a key and for our vehicles.

Cons

I wish the cost for annual was a bit lower for non profits.

Reason for choosing Keycafe

Cost and functionality were definitely driving forces.

### "Great product to ease your daily operations"

June 27, 2024

5.0

We are totally in love with our keycafe box. It helped us not to lose key anymore and made all day to day operation more smooth. But we also had the great surprise to discover it could help us with the company credit card and our share computers.

Pros

Super easy to install and use. Helped us to resolve many issues we had.

Cons

Sometime when employee are not attentive they can close a box on a key and it block the door. Also, if they change their mind and don't remove the key it look like the box is empty and we need to do some research next time to find the key.

Reason for choosing Keycafe

It was the least expensive and also the one that look like the more convenient for us. Also I had a great connection with people working there (always good customer service).

### "A great system to save you heartache and hassle! "

June 3, 2024

5.0

Keycafe has exceptional customer service that can be accessed at all hours of the day. I have never been dissatisfied with their customer service!

Pros

We love that we have a secure, consistent and cost-effective way to store and manage keys within our organization. Being in the house cleaning and janitorial industry, security is our number one priority. Keycafe takes care of a huge part of this for us, with the use of their system. We'd highly recommend them!

Cons

Keycafe is a bit expensive to purchase and get going on, but it is totally worth it.

### "Highly recommend! "

May 18, 2024

Overall, my eperience was positive. Aside from the shipping hiccup, we also had an issue with one of the key boxes once it did arrive. There was some clear quality control issues with the batch of boxes we received. Keycafe was easy to work with on this point and promptly replaced any non-working items.

Pros

The fact that you can remotely manage the system. You are able to manage all of your keys (permissions, naming, grouping, etc.) via the website, as well as remotely give access to someone for one key or multiple keys if needed. The system also keeps great audit logs so it is easy to track down the lasat person to have a key checked out.

Cons

Length of time it took to receive the product once we made the purchase. There was a significant delay on shipping and the exact set up we ordered was on backorder, so they offered a slightly different set up for a slightly reduced rate.

Reason for choosing Keycafe

Cost, product specifications, size of the key storage bins, online/cloud management.

The old product was very small and did not fit all of our keys well. They were starting to malfunction. They also did not have any cloud based management, everything was done locallly on the device itself.
