Winner: AirTight Networks C-75 Access Point
The C-75 802.11ac Access Point from AirTight Networks speeds setup by coming preconfigured with SSIDs for secure corporate network, guest network and a third for administrators that transfers authorized logins directly to the management console. Also setting apart the AirTight solution is Mojo Studio, which adds a social aspect. Back-end software allows guests to log into the access point using a Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter account, thereby capturing their age, gender and other demographics and usage metrics. Guests also can be presented with options to enter additional information or be contacted later with discounts or other opportunities.
