What are Managed Wi-Fi Services?

Under a Managed Wi-Fi service, a service provider will eliminate the hassles of an organization in maintaining its Wi-Fi technology. The provider will offer the organization a scalable wireless network solution across all its locations property-wide, as required, ensuring consistent and stable Wi-Fi connectivity. Managed Wi-Fi services are generally adopted by companies that lack qualified in-house teams to manage the IT services. The service is offered as cloud-based, which means that the internet provider will install, manage, control and troubleshoot all Wi-Fi services of the company remotely. It allows companies to access faster internet at larger bandwidths.

Compared to an unmanaged Wi-Fi service, where the Wi-Fi connectivity is managed in-house through single/multiple access points, Managed Wi-Fi services can be expensive. However, factoring in the challenges of Wi-Fi management — downtime, the cost for onsite IT staff, scalability – Managed Wi-Fi services are cost-effective in the longer run. It alleviates the risk of going obsolete in terms of technology.
