KyberAccess vs
iLobby
iLobby serves manufacturing and regulated facilities, but their proprietary hardware and enterprise pricing put them out of reach for many. KyberAccess delivers the same compliance capabilities on any tablet — at a fraction of the cost.
Key Differences
Where KyberAccess Stands Out
60-75% Lower TCO
No proprietary kiosks, no implementation fees. Use any tablet. Save $10K–$25K in hardware alone.
BYOD-Friendly
KyberAccess runs on any iPad or Android tablet. No vendor lock-in to expensive proprietary kiosk hardware.
Faster Deployment
Self-service setup in under an hour. No professional services engagement or 6-week implementation timeline.
Modern Analytics
Real-time dashboards, peak hour heatmaps, and automated reports. iLobby's analytics are limited.

Fair Assessment
What iLobby Does Well
iLobby has legitimate strengths in regulated manufacturing environments.
Manufacturing & Regulated Industry Focus
iLobby (now part of HqO) was built with manufacturing and regulated facilities in mind. Their workflows for contractor safety training, certification verification, and compliance documentation are mature. If you're in a highly regulated manufacturing environment, iLobby has deep domain expertise.
Hardware Kiosk Ecosystem
iLobby offers custom-built hardware kiosks with integrated ID scanners, cameras, and badge printers. For organizations that want a turnkey hardware solution, iLobby's kiosks are well-engineered. However, this also means vendor lock-in and significant upfront hardware costs.
Enterprise Compliance Maturity
With years in the enterprise compliance space, iLobby has mature workflows for ITAR, EAR, C-TPAT, and other manufacturing-specific regulations. Their templates and compliance documentation are well-established.
Migration
Switch Without Disruption
Export Data
Pull visitor logs, contractor records, and compliance data from iLobby. KyberAccess imports CSV data directly.
Replicate Workflows
Rebuild safety training, NDA, and contractor certification workflows. Most iLobby configurations translate directly.
Hardware Swap
Replace iLobby's proprietary kiosk with any iPad or Android tablet. Same reception area, lower cost hardware.
Train & Launch
Brief front desk and security staff on the new system. KyberAccess training takes under 30 minutes.
"iLobby's kiosks were great hardware, but at $4,000 per unit plus $400/month per site, we couldn't justify the cost across 8 plants. We switched to KyberAccess on standard iPads and actually got more features — wallet passes, LPR integration, and better analytics."
