Visitors come to your environment with a flood of Wi-Fi-enabled devices, and they need to get online quickly and easily. Guest Connect simplifies secure guest access for any device on any network, minimizing IT workload and ensuring a trouble-free end-user experience.

Guest Connect software is optimized for ease-of-use, for both administrators and end users. It supports any client platform with a web browser. It supports all access points, all controllers, and all wired switches, regardless of vendor. Flawless interoperability with wireless and wired infrastructure from all major vendors allows you to leverage your existing investments.

Guest Connect lets you delegate the creation of guest accounts to any individual or group of internal staff members, who serve as authorized sponsors. You can even allow visitors to securely self-register. Regardless of the level of delegation, you remain in control by defining the policies that govern guest access. Granular policies can be defined according to user and device type, time of day, and other IT-managed criteria. For times when you need to accommodate many visitors at once, Guest Connect offers easy batch account creation - or for selfservice environments, the use of event codes. Guest users can be notified of their temporary login credentials by email, SMS, or printed page. You can easily customize the guest portal and notifications to support your organization's branding.

You can choose to run Guest Connect on Meru hardware or as a VMware-based virtual appliance, and it scales to meet the needs of the largest organizations. Enterprise-strength authentication ensures that only authorized guests get network access. Guest Connect also offers the industry's first and most comprehensive activity monitoring and reporting. Guest Connect supports prepaid access and credit card billing through integration with leading payment gateways. For hospitality customers, it integrates with a broad range of property management systems to streamline billing and administration for hotel guest Internet access.
