TO GROW YOUR BUSINESS AND PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST
BREACHES , YOU ARE GOING TO NEED AN ENTERPRISE-
GRADE NETWORK
WITH IN-BUILT SECURITY FEATURES DESIGNED TO SEGMENT THE
NETWORK .
Many SMEs are rethinking their networking requirements in order to remain competitive and are desperately in need of a wireless experience , comparable to enterprise networks . In order to implement an effective Digital Transformation strategy , SMEs need to be looking for purpose-built Wi-Fi solutions that are simple to manage and can effortlessly scale as business needs dictate .
Simple , yet reliable
A key issue for small business owners is that they just don ’ t have the time to focus on network solutions in the same way that enterprise-level businesses can . There typically isn ’ t an IT team who are fixing issues or upgrading solutions in the background , while the rest of the team run the business . The best type of network solution is one that is easy and simple to set up and reliable enough to work without owners having to constantly monitor it .
For any SME owners , no matter which field you work in , the main aim is for the Wi-Fi to work without issue for anyone trying to connect to the network . For employees , Wi-Fi is critical , as technology is woven into the everyday operations of most businesses . Fast , reliable connectivity is necessary to serve customers , whether it ’ s ringing up sales , answering questions or booking appointments .
With the explosion of mobile and IoT devices on the market and the growing trend of ‘ flexible working ’, users expect to be able to log on to the Internet swiftly and securely , no matter where they are . Employees want the freedom to work anywhere , rather than be tied down . Wi-Fi is also an expectation while customers shop , eat or wait . If your business is in hospitality , running a boutique hotel for instance , a poor or slow Wi-Fi connection could be the difference between a fivestar and four-star review . Equally , in retail , if you ’ ve implemented a secure and scalable network , you can start to digitise your in-store experience , implementing applications to help customers order or find products .
