我们公司需求的明确选择

"Aruba was the clear choice for our company's needs," said Mr. Vargas. "Aruba Central shows us what's happening in real-time on a robust dashboard and, because it's cloud-based, we can add access points, troubleshoot potential connectivity issues, monitor analytics, and generate detailed reports without having to be on a local network. This saves us time and allows us to work more efficiently. Next, the Aruba IAPs were proven to maximize mobile Wi-Fi performance and eliminate drops when users visit different parts of the office. This is a tremendous benefit because many of our employees go from our 11th floor to our 12th floor, and vice-versa, with their mobile devices."

随时随地访问

Balboa Capital's open and spacious office was designed to improve efficiency and foster collaboration between departments. That said, there are times when the company's employees need Wi-Fi access to conduct business off-site, or to tend to personal matters in a private setting.

“随着我们扩大的Wi-Fi功能，我们的员工可以在我们的笔记本电脑，平板电脑，平板电脑，平板电脑和移动设备上进行业务，”Vargas先生说。"It features social lounges, private patios, fire pits, and a food truck runway. Plus, our employees can use their mobile devices to make personal phone calls or browse the Internet inside sound isolation rooms that are conveniently located in our lobby."

保持联系客人

Balboa Capital is not open to the public, but the company does have guests on occasion. They include prospective employees, investment banking professionals, and vendors. When guests arrive, they check-in at an mzero indoor kiosk with a 26-inch touchscreen, and might have to wait a few minutes in the lobby.

“瓦尔格斯先生在大厅等待着嘉宾在大堂等待着我们公司的第一印象是没有秘密的。”通过为他们提供密码保护的Wi-Fi连接，他们可以使用他们的移动设备追赶重要的电子邮件，在他们等待时冲浪网站，或响应短信。从商业角度来看，这是一个很好的好处。“

"It's no secret that first impressions about our company are formed while guests are waiting in the lobby. By offering them a password-protected Wi-Fi connection, they can use their mobile devices to catch up on important emails, surf the web, or respond to text messages while they wait."

Balboa Capital全年拥有办公室活动，以突出公司的成就，向雇员提供奖项，并宣布新的举措，技术和流程。在部署Aruba的无线网络之前，这些事件的直播流通常存在慢缓冲，视频滞后和低分辨率等问题。

"They are a great way to keep everyone informed about our company's developments and reward our employees who have excelled. We recently invested in state-of-the-art audio and video recording equipment to record our company events, and the Aruba network has taken our live stream quality to the next level."

Easy to Install and Deploy

Balboa首都的IT团队配置和安装了IAP，而无需聘请外部顾问或商业Wi-Fi安装公司。还创建了两个受密码保护的Wi-Fi网络;一个用于一般用户（Balboa Capital员工和客人），以及一个用于巴布亚首都的高级管理人员和IT团队。

"Installing our access points was relatively simple and straightforward," said Mr. Vargas. "We determined where the IAPs needed to be placed, and we connected each one to a Power over Ethernet (PoE) connection. We then logged onto Aruba Central, added the serial numbers of each access point, and introduced them via the cloud. Once we finished the installation process, we conducted tests to confirm that all the access points were recognized on our network, and we were ready to go."

Aruba Central同步为1-2-3

Balboa Capital's IT team wanted the ability to manage the company's Wi-Fi settings, reporting, and bandwidth, among others, in a simple and efficient manner.

"One of the biggest advantages of Aruba Central, outside of its wide array of capabilities, is how easy it is to use," said Mr. Vargas. "There is no need to switch from one application or dashboard to another in order to get the network information you need. With Aruba Central, everything you need is conveniently accessible via the cloud on a single dashboard. It's as easy as one-two-three. Lastly, we did not have to buy any servers, which saved us both time and money."

"I didn't need to contact customer support or look for help online after the install was complete. I just imported our existing wireless network configuration and followed the on-screen instructions to complete the process."
