CentraCom has introduced SmartBiz, a new network solution for businesses that provide safe and reliable Wi-Fi, simple network management, and powerful marketing tools.
SmartBiz puts you in charge of your business’s Wi-Fi. Create up to four separate Wi-Fi networks using one CentraWiFi Blast, giving you the ability to have a separate network for your administration, your employees, your point-of-sale system, and your customers. Each network is isolated and prioritized, keeping business, such as point-of-sale transactions, separate and protected from customer Wi-Fi traffic.
You also have the option of installing a cellular failover into your network. If internet service in your area goes down for any reason at all, SmartBiz is there to help. With cellular failover, you can connect your CentraWiFi Blast router to a cellular data network and keep your business running. You can manage your network to keep any combination of your four networks running.
Say you run a small clothing store, and the internet goes out. You don’t have to stop sales because now your point-of-sale network will connect using your cellular failover. Or if you run a catering business and you’re in the middle of a call with a client, your network can still be going strong.
Monitor and manage your entire network from anywhere with the CommandWorx mobile app. From your phone, you can edit and brand your customer Wi-Fi portal, create unique network profiles for new employees, and manage content filters and firewalls. The CentraCom Technician who installs your new system can help you get started.
Finally, SmartBiz gives you powerful marketing tools at the tips of your fingers. There’s no denying the critical role a smooth internet experience plays for your customers. It’s an expectation in many businesses that free public Wi-Fi is available. Not only does SmartBiz fulfill that expectation, but it also helps you connect with your customers better.
When customers connect to your public Wi-Fi network using your branded portal, you can collect email addresses and create an email list. Email lists are crucial in marketing your business, especially when you know you are emailing customers who have already purchased from you.
CentraCom is excited to bring this powerful tool to small business owners in our service areas. Call us at 801-854-5000 with any questions or visit business.centracom.com/smartbiz.
