Comments

“Gartner research shows that without proper planning for iPads in the Enterprise, you could need up to 300 percent more Wi-Fi to achieve the same performance levels as laptops and other devices,” said Tim Zimmerman, research vice president at Gartner. “As businesses move more and more toward an iEverything environment, it is unrealistic for enterprises to expect devices to provide the consistent performance without a properly prepared network.”

“We are very excited to host this complimentary webinar with Gartner analyst, Tim Zimmerman,” said Joel Vincent, Director of Product Marketing at Aerohive Networks. “As BYOD and the Consumerization of IT trends continue to become more prevalent in the enterprise, it will be important for businesses to properly prepare their networks to handle this new influx of smart devices. We look forward to sharing best practices for safe-proofing organizations’ WLANs and optimizing Wi-Fi for today’s iEverything enterprise.”
