The Cintel solution is scalable and designed for easy facility adoption on an enterprise level. Cintel works with all of your cardio brands and allows viewing of the ‘health’ of all cardio equipment from anywhere at any time. Cintel also helps manage purchasing decisions based on real-time relevant data.

In addition to the Core Health & Fitness brands Star Trac and StairMaster, Cintel works on many other manufacturers' products and on many legacy models of equipment.
