Delivering Guest Web Connectivity

Delivering Secured Guest Web Connectivity
The costs of delivering quality web access for your guests go way beyond providing and maintaining the infrastructure. 

Our Web Access Manager system is designed specifically for hotels, convention centres and restaurants that provide internet access to guests and staff. These tools let you improve the guest web experience, give full control and security to the network manager and reduce your legal liabilities. 

The need for liability awareness and diligent security is increasing, and the consequences for ignoring them can be severe and expensive.  For example; lawsuits through guest copyright infringement (illegal downloading of films) have been and still are a real and worrying threat. Film piracy can also be expected to have a detrimental effect on traditional hospitality pay-per-view systems.

Maintaining enough bandwidth for guest use is another constant challenge.  With video on demand estimated to be over 20% of all web traffic it seriously impact on guests’ day-to-day needs for consistent and fast connectivity for email and browsing activities. 

Keeping your networks operating effectively in such a dynamic environment is a challenge – it requires robust and agile tools.  Our technologies enable you to build an environment that operates efficiently and safely without draining your time and your web resources.
