Wireless Management Services
Evolving environments and security challenges make managing a WLAN inherently more complex than a wired LAN. In a WLAN environment, users are constantly in motion and share a common wireless network infrastructure. Environmental issues can cause interference and signal degradation. Rogue access points leave the network susceptible to security threats. Without a comprehensive management solution that monitors for device failures, performance thresholds and potential security risks, the cost savings and productivity benefits of mobility can be quickly eroded through the additional time and costs associated with the day-to-day management and ongoing user support required for the WLAN. Click Tactics Wireless Management Service provides organizations with a comprehensive and efficient solution for managing their WLAN environment. By applying the proper expertise, management tools and methodologies to their WLAN devices, Click Tactics customers achieve the maximum business benefit from their technology investment.
