Kiosk or compact terminal: which should you choose?
Written by the Tebeasy team · Published · Updated
Compare footprint, printer layout, visibility and use of a complete kiosk and compact terminal.

When to choose a complete kiosk
The kiosk combines touchscreen and printer in dedicated furniture. It creates a recognisable patient point and suits an entrance with a stable accessible location.
When to choose a compact terminal
The touchscreen sits on a counter with a separate thermal printer. It suits limited spaces and reception areas where staff remain close to the patient.
Compare against the actual site
Measure space, check power and observe entrance flow. Consider accessibility, ticket volume, visibility and whether existing furniture can be reused.
