What Type Of Companies Should Use Cloud-managed Wireless Services

Companies with multiple geographically disbursed sites had enterprise-grade WLAN at the headquarters while some sites without IT staff used consumer-grade access points and routers. This heterogeneous environment made it difficult for administrators to have one set of policies and configurations that would work across the company. Cloud-managed WLAN eliminates this complexity.

Many geographically distributed branches
Many wireless networks are managed using a server-based management system and a controller. But while these systems work well in large enterprise environments with local IT staff, they are less suited to distributed businesses, such as retail chains with a large number of small sites. Cloud-managed services can distribute intelligence from the cloud to the Access Points, which means non-technical staff just need to plug in the device and turn it on.

Limited or no IT staff
Small and medium business still need robust solutions but often don’t have the IT resources to required to evaluate, install and manage WLAN. One way to embrace mobility while maximising IT resources is to consider cloud infrastructure services.

Businesses that constantly struggle with escalating network demands
All businesses are struggling with escalating network demands but some industries are experiencing greater demands than others. For example, educational institutions have limited ability to control what is brought into the building or what is used.
