Comcast’s Business today announced a new Wi-Fi solution for the enterprise.
Called “WiFi Pro,” the new solution includes cloud-based controls and markeing tools aimed for use in businesses such as SMBs and enterprise branch locations.
According to a press release, Wi-Fi Pro provides two commercial Wi-Fi networks – a private network for employees and a guest network for visitors and patrons. Comcast says the solution provides additional security and leverages the latest AC chipset.
“WiFi Pro offers simple management and features to SMBs and distributed enterprises that were previously only available to headquarters and other large office locations, enabling a better employee experience and customer engagement,” said John Guillaume, vice president of Product Management at Comcast Business. “The additional marketing features allow SMBs and enterprise branches to create a more personalized experience through Wi-Fi to help drive customer retention and revenue growth.”
As a managed solution, the equipment and access points for WiFi Pro are installed and managed by technicians.
The service can be managed on a smart device via a mobile app or an online portal that give businesses advanced capabilities like on-demand activity reporting and network configuration controls to set schedules and allocate bandwidth.
In addition, SMBs and enterprise branch offices can utilize custom splash or landing pages to help attract new customers and encourage repeat business.
