Network success is an integral factor in executing a productiveenterprise mobility strategy. We know all too well that each industry has its own set of challenges, and that means that the network required for each market might be different. That’s why it’s imperative to have a network solution that will keep your enterprise connected constantly – not just most of the time.

That’s where Cradlepoint enters the equation. They’re the leading provider of secure cloud-managed 3G/4G/LTE networking solutions for enterprises with up to thousands of locations. Their high-performance routers are designed for deployment in mission-critical applications that require round-the-clock connectivity, making it the ideal solution when remote connectivity, immediate deployment, or multi-WWAN redundancy is required.

Here are a few of our favorite features that Cradlepoint offers:

Ensure network uptime with cloud-based management. Whether your enterprise has several locations that need efficient peer-to-peer VPN communication, or you have a wired (cable/telco dsl or fiber) or wireless network that goes down frequently, Cradlepoint’s routers and cloud-based system can ensure that you are up and running 24X7. Minimize employee downtime spent waiting around for your network to reboot or contacting your help desk by utilizing a high-speed failover solution that offers VPN support.

Enable intelligent failover and network security using primary edge routing. Whenever one of your business sites goes down, the network will automatically switch to 4G LTE and send your central IT department a notification, which will both minimize downtime and allow you to fix any issues immediately. This will also help improve network security, as Cradlepoint’s applications platform and cloud services allow IT teams to centrally manage devices, firmware, security, and network usage in one place.

Utilize wireless solutions for speed-to-deployment. Many manufacturing and retail companies have dynamic networks that are always changing. Cradlepoint provides a wireless solution that is reliable, adaptable, and active all the time, instead of just most of the time. They’re also known to ensure constant connectivity in some of the most extreme, unexpected working environments. The ability to ensure a reliable network connection all the time means that your enterprise can maintain and support all warehouse or retail applications throughout the production or selling process and avoid delays.

The promise of 24X7 connectivity, network security, and a reliable cloud-based management system is why Cradlepoint is such an option many of our customers go with. A trusted network is integral to any successful deployment strategy. It goes beyond just the right devices and software- you also need the right network solutions to ensure that the entire strategy can work together efficiently.
