Common Questions
What size company is KCI designed for?
Enterprises managing 10+ locations and working with 5+ vendors. If you're spending more time coordinating vendors than deploying solutions, we can help.
Do I have to use all five WINDS services?
No. WINDS is modular. Most enterprises start with one or two services and expand as needs evolve. There's no penalty for starting small.
How long does implementation take?
Single-service deployments typically take 4-6 weeks. Full WINDS implementations across multiple locations run 3-4 months depending on scope and compliance requirements.
How does pricing work?
Fixed monthly pricing per location and per device. No overages, no surprise invoices. You'll know your exact infrastructure cost before we deploy.
What does support look like?
One call to your dedicated account manager. Direct phone access, same-day response. No ticket queues, no call centers, no escalation chains.
Which compliance standards do you support?
PCI-DSS for retail, HIPAA for healthcare, CJIS for government, NERC CIP for utilities, and E-Rate/CIPA for education. Compliance is built into every deployment.
