Wi-Fi onboarding

Seamlessly onboard students onto Wi-Fi
Automatically onboard mobile app users

Allow students and visitors seamless access to the internet, with single-screen/step Wi-Fi onboarding. Once onboarded, the person can walk into any of your locations around the world and be connected automatically. Integrate the Spaces SDK with your university’s mobile app, and use app notifications to push location-based messaging such as welcome messages, event promotions and team updates.

Campus Safety

Monitor occupancy across campus in real time
Visualize visitor density & receive alerts when thresholds are met

On campus, there can be no compromise on safety. Leverage data from Wi-Fi, BLE, RFID tags and other sensors, to visualize visitor density in real-time. Adhere to safety compliance norms by defining thresholds and automatically alert staff and response teams if thresholds are reached or breached. Digital signages can be used to display real-time occupancy and air quality in various areas of the campus.

Student & visitor experience

Send contextual & contactless messages
Automate attendance tracking
Offer wayfinding & navigation services

Trigger messages (to welcome visitors, promote events, share updates) and send out notifications based on a visitor’s location. Using compatible third party apps available in our App Center to automatically track attendance once students log into Wi-Fi. Display the availability of meeting rooms on Webex devices and offer navigation assistance as well.

Asset management

Locate & monitor high value assets
Define rules for asset location and utilization
Alert staff in case of unauthorized usage or unexpected movement

Choose from an exhaustive selection of Wi-Fi tags and BLE devices from our IoT Device Marketplace. Tagged physical assets and digital, IT devices can be monitored in real time, ensuring their safety. Define rules for their utilization and movement within the campus, and trigger alerts in case of any breach.

Space utilization & location analytics

Understand how your space is being used
Understand student behavior to create a better experience

Use real-time and historical space utilization data to ensure that spaces are right sized. Optimize housekeeping schedules and effectively manage campus maintenance. Understand how students are responding to changes on campus. Compare data across multiple locations.
