WiFi as a Service: a virtuous model based on an obligation to achieve results

With connectivity and mobility at the heart of the digital transformation of businesses, the demand for network performance has gone up a notch, hence the relevance of a virtuous model based on an obligation to achieve results.

ReductionCouts

Cost optimization

Customers benefit from a long-lasting network (8 years on average), since the infrastructure benefits from the continuous innovations brought about by Wifirst's software overlay. What's more, our multiservice solution is capable - in a single deployment - of addressing both business and customer needs.

PointCle

A key asset for IT Departments

Working hand in hand with a WiFi as a Service operator frees IT Departments from a heavy burden: the network infrastructure is perfectly mastered and ready to welcome emerging technologies with high added value for the company's competitiveness.

PositiveReturn

Positive customer feedback

The list of companies convinced by managed WiFi is getting longer and longer. While every customer is different, they all find themselves in this virtuous model, which satisfies employees and/or customers and enables them to concentrate on their "core business" without worrying about WiFi working everywhere, all the time.

Multiservice WiFi

Wifirst's WiFi solution makes it possible to unify different uses around a single infrastructure. We really want to build our customers' wireless connectivity base to improve operational performance, reduce costs and enhance the user experience.

All services are assigned separate VLANs, so that data flows are secure even though they pass over the same physical infrastructure. Here are a few concrete examples:

  • Connecting tablets for Accor reception staff or Norauto mechanics
  • Creating private connection bubbles for students in university halls of residence, as in Crous campus
  • Connect the electronic labels of a department store, as at Intermarché
  • Connect showerheads in a logistics warehouse, as at BBL

Needs assessment and advice

Wifirst works hand in hand with you and your teams to define the solution best suited to your needs (with a 10-year projection). As soon as the project is launched, Wifirst teams are at your disposal to validate all the technical architectures. We then share with you the deliverables required to implement the project.

WiFi coverage survey

WiFi coverage survey

A WiFi expert conducts a high-performance technical study using an application developed by our engineers. This coverage study will determine the architecture of the wireless network adapted to the needs defined upstream with the customer. Wifirst systematically commits to 100% coverage on the 2 frequency bands, 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.

Network deployment

Wifirst Center

Wifirst Center is the Wifirst service management and monitoring tool. It is an intuitive, multi-tenant web interface that centralizes network information and statistics, whatever the model of kiosk installed on site: equipment status, dynamic mapping, ticketing, bandwidth consumed, etc.

A connection experience like at home

We often hear about the concept of a "home-like" customer experience. When it comes to connectivity, the idea is to offer each customer a private WiFi network to which they can simply and securely connect all their personal equipment. This solution, which we call the "Room Area Network", is essential for meeting customer requirements in serviced residences and hotels.

How to select professional WiFi access point?

Wifirst is a service provider certified by leading IT equipment manufacturers. We constantly evaluate equipment performance and influence the development roadmap for kiosks and switches thanks to our privileged relationships with partners. As a result, we are in a position to guide our corporate customers in their choice of equipment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions - Professional WiFi

How do you choose the right WiFi solution for your business?

It all depends on your sector(hotels, healthcare, retail, education, offices, etc.), the size of your premises, the number of users and the uses (video surveillance, telephony, connected objects, etc.). A managed WiFi solution like the one offered by Wifirst adapts to your specific needs: it's tailor-made after a technical audit, integrating both physical constraints and functional requirements.

What are the essential criteria for a high-performance professional WiFi network?

A good professional WiFi network is based on :

  • Quality infrastructure (professional terminals, structured cabling, dedicated fiber)
  • homogenous coverage with no white zones, and therefore a carefully prepared network design
  • Intelligent traffic management to avoid saturation
  • Continuous supervision with proactive alerts to trigger maintenance operations
  • Responsive user support

Wifirst provides a turnkey managed WiFi service that integrates all these elements.

Is business WiFi secure?

Yes, when well designed. A professional WiFi network needs to be partitioned, with separate access for guests, staff, business equipment, etc. It also needs to incorporate advanced security protocols, strong authentication, a centralized firewall, and a policy of regular updates. At Wifirst, security is built into all our offerings, right from the design stage.

What are the security standards for a professional WiFi network?

In particular, a professional WiFi network must comply with:

  • The RGPD for the collection and management of personal data.
  • Connection traceability obligations, in the case of public access (hotspot)
  • Encryption standards (WPA3, network segmentation, VLAN, etc.)
  • ANSSI recommendations for critical environments

Wifirst guarantees that its solutions comply with all these standards.

How much does it cost to install professional WiFi?

The cost depends on a number of parameters: surface area to be covered, user density, type of building, dedicated fiber, network configuration, etc. Wifirst offers managed WiFi in service mode (OPEX), which includes design, equipment, installation, supervision, maintenance and support. This allows you to control your budget, without heavy initial investment. However, CAPEX-OPEX variants are also possible.

Can professional WiFi cover very large spaces or outdoor areas?

Yes, thanks to the use of long-range terminals and a well-designed network architecture, it is possible to cover :

Wifirst has recognized expertise in large-scale deployments, even in difficult environments (outdoor, multi-building, complex topography).

How do you optimize the coverage and range of a professional WiFi network?

There are several key factors:

  • A thorough site survey (plan, obstacles, interference)
  • Strategic placement of WiFi hotspots
  • The use of equipment adapted to dense or extended environments
  • Centralized control to automatically adjust performance

Wifirst ensures continuous network optimization through proactive supervision and dynamic adjustments.

What services should be included in a professional WiFi solution?

A true managed WiFi solution must include :

  • Network audit and engineering
  • Turnkey installation (fiber, cabling, terminals)
  • 24/7 network supervision
  • Preventive and corrective maintenance
  • Personalized login portal
  • User support (hotline, technical assistance)
  • Reporting and usage analysis

At Wifirst, these services are integrated into a 100% outsourced WiFi as a Service model, so you can concentrate on your core business.
