Leading bandwidth management vendor and cloud-based guest Internet platform provider partner to deliver superior results for both guests and customers.
Montreal, Canada (10/19/2011) — Elfiq Networks, the manufacturer of the most innovative link balancer solutions on the market today, has partnered with Eleven, hospitality’s leading software platform for managing the guest experience, to deliver an innovative reference architecture to provide superior access management for organizations which provide Internet services to their guests.
Elfiq’s hardware enables hoteliers to maximize their total bandwidth by load balancing multiple Internet circuits, while ElevenOS provides hoteliers a powerful way to manage and monetize their high-speed Internet service, even when basic access is free to guests. Together, the solutions deliver a complete Internet management toolset to hoteliers and the network service providers who manage their networks.
“Elfiq is proud to partner with Eleven to deliver a superior and cost-effective guest Internet access management solution,” said Jean Pascal Hebert, Vice President of Business Development at Elfiq Networks. “This integrated architecture will deliver higher guest satisfaction scores and related services revenues to properties while delivering faster and reliable Internet access.”
“Eleven’s customers and partners are already deploying our joint solution with Elfiq Networks.” said Eric Sullender, Director of Products at Eleven. “Hoteliers vastly increase their available bandwidth and improve its reliability with Elfiq and then use ElevenOS to optimize and profit from these improvements.”
Elfiq Networks is rapidly becoming the leader in bandwidth management and ISP link balancing by developing a global network of reseller partners, while providing key solutions to organizations in over 116 countries worldwide.
Elfiq Networks’ link balancers enable organizations to utilize multiple concurrent ISP circuits to prevent Internet connectivity downtime and improve overall access performance. With more Internet-based applications and services being used in organizations every day, proper access to the Internet has become a critical asset for normal business operations, where loss of connectivity or ISP link saturation can result in lost revenue.
Eleven has been providing hoteliers a cloud-based Internet management solution for nearly a decade, and the ElevenOS platform continues to deliver innovative ways for hoteliers to leverage their guest Internet service to drive loyalty, increase guest satisfaction and grow their revenue. Hoteliers can offer tiered bandwidth via bill-to- room or credit card, along with separate meeting room access. For meeting rooms, hotel sales/catering staff can easily create and manage group access including custom bandwidth options, concurrent user limits and custom splash pages for individual groups.
