Wireless Managed Services for Retail and Branch Locations: Better Business Without Wires
Companies with branch offices or multiple retail outlets have typically used site-to-site VPN services for enterprise-wide connectivity. And iPass' Branch Office and Retail Office services have long been the solution solid choice for companies looking for easy, reliable and secure managed connectivity at an affordable price.
But enterprises with workers in hard-to-reach or temporary locations need more flexibility for delivering rich applications that make the business more efficient or improve customer satisfaction. That obviously includes companies with branch offices or retail outlets beyond the reach of DSL or cable. That's why we've added new wireless options to our Branch Office and Retail connectivity services based on our nationwide 3G broadband technology.
Wireless Jumpstart service lets enterprises bring new stores online and generates revenue faster.
Wireless Backup service gives remote locations a broadband backup at an affordable price.
Wireless Primary service allows offices or stores that can't be served by wires or that are mobile to gain broadband access to the same applications as any other location.
The Fast, Affordable, Secure Way to Expand Your Business
With the iPass Wireless Connected Services integrated directly in your iPass Retail or Branch Office solution, your extended enterprise can enjoy:
Faster time to market. Often times, the only holdup to opening a new branch or retail storefront is the time it takes to have a DSL, cable or T1 connection installed and configured. You could rely on dial-up in the meantime, but then you're getting off to a slow start—literally—with your first customers, leaving an impression that may keep them from ever coming back.
Lower costs. iPass' wireless options can save you the cost of an expensive T1 line for access when DSL and cable are not available. Even if you decide you can get by with dial-up, you'll still need to pay for the additional phone line. iPass gives you the broadband wired and wireless access you need to cover your remote locations—all with one contract, one affordable invoice and just one number to call for support.
Data safety and security. When Internet access goes down at a remote location, most companies are forced to rely on dial-up services to back up their local data. That can be excruciatingly slow, and it's not uncommon for a company to add a second high-speed link for backup, while pushing the DSL or cable provider to restore service quickly. But since iPass wireless services are based on 3G technology, you have a high-speed wireless connection to fall back on at a much lower price than a second wired broadband. And you can count on seamless data security across your enterprise, thanks to iPass' fully managed security technology, including end-to-end IPSec-encrypted VPNs.
