andcards Partners with IronWiFi for the Next-Gen Wi-Fi Experience at Coworking Spaces

• andcards is releasing an integration with IronWiFi cloud-based networking platform to streamline and automate Wi-Fi access at coworking spaces.
• The solution delivers convenient and secure Wi-Fi access to every stakeholder, from administrators to all types of customers.
• It’s easy to set up and give temporary access to paying customers only, effortlessly tracking and recording online activity.    

“What is the Wi-Fi password?” is probably one of the most frequently asked questions at any coworking space. From now on, andcards customers are going to hear it less often — we are introducing passwordless, secure and time-based access to Wi-Fi in partnership with IronWiFi.

This is a breakthrough in terms of Wi-Fi management automation and enhancing customer experience at a coworking space. Clients don’t have to use passwords, ask or look around. Users authorize the browsing session with the same account used for the coworking space app. The access is granted seamlessly according to the conditions configured by the administrator.

andcards-IronWiFi integration gives you full control over who has access to your network as well as the ability to limit specific users and manage access on many levels. Extensive scheduled reports that IronWiFi can automatically deliver to your mailbox help you understand who and how used your network at any time.

What does next-generation Wi-Fi access at a coworking space look like?   

• Quick and secure access to wireless networks for customers. Members, non-members, visitors or event attendees log in to your Wi-Fi network with a single email and one-time password. No need to remember or ask for passwords. No worries about sharing Wi-Fi passwords with unauthorized users because there are no passwords in the first place.
• Keep existing hardware and automate Wi-Fi management. To use the power of network access automation, you don’t have to spend additional money on upgrading your routers. IronWiFi supports 50+ hardware options ranging from Cisco Meraki to Ubiquiti. Setting it up is very easy with the help of the IronWiFi platform.
• Only paying customers get online. Give access to Wi-Fi only to paying customers across all locations of your coworking space network. Let members with active plans, external customers with valid room or desk bookings, guests that registered at the reception tablet, and even event attendees, get online easily and stay connected until the end of their service.
• Know who is online, how often, and how long. Track and record the details of how customers use Wi-Fi at your coworking space with IronWiFi’s built-in analytics tools. Gather the data for further reference, billing by the hour, enhancing security, and monitor the network in real-time by connecting Google Analytics with andcards and IronWiFi.

The importance of Wi-Fi automation feature on andcards and system's integration with IronWiFi is difficult to overestimate. The solution optimizes the work processes for coworking space managers and accelerates the onboarding of new members. Analytics, in its turn, lets us lean on data and manage our workspace better.
