Purchasing Guideline - System Explanations
When trying to decide which system is best suited for your agency it is important to know that we license our software on the number of dog teams your agency has. (One officer with one dog is considered a single dog team.) There is no limit as to the number of computers the system can be networked from or installed on as long as you have a license for each dog team. To help you understand how the system operates, here is an outline of the different versions of the software and how they function.
License Type 1 A license type 1 is designed to be installed on the individual laptop, home system or other system used by each individual officer. This system will synchronize with the license type 3 and license type 4 agency systems. You may install this system on as many systems as are required by your agency to the maximum number of dog teams the system was ordered for....
Note: Once all systems have been installed, the table structures within KATS can be customized by you to meet your agency specific needs, or you can simply use the tables as they are installed with the system. If you customize the tables for your agency specifically, you must create the tables on your Level 3 or Level 4 system, and then using the KATS built in export system, export those tables to a disk or USB thumb drive and then import them into each Level 1 within your agency. This is done immediately after the initial setup in order to ensure all users of the KATS system are using the same nomenclature and the systems will synchronize all imported data correctly.
License Type 2 The license type 1 is identical to our license type 1 however it allows for a single officer who is working multiple dogs. For example, some agencies have officers who work a patrol dog as well as a detector dog. The deployment of the Level 2 system is identical to that of the Level 1.
License Types 3 & 4 KATS Generation 4 now allows for up to four or six dog teams on the agency versions. If you are ordering for more than six teams, the price per team over the initial six teams is $175.00 per team. When ordering an Agency version, please ensure you advise in the remarks section of your order how many teams total you have in your agency. To order extra licenses of the software add the number of individual additional licenses required to your order over the original four or six teams. (The Level 3 system provides for four teams and the Level 4 provides for six teams) You can increase the number of licenses on the checkout page by clicking to the “increase” link once for each extra license you need to purchase.
