Looking to boost your business WiFi? Here’s why Zen EveryRoom might be for you

First of all, let’s kick off with what exactly EveryRoom from Zen is. EveryRoom is our very own mesh WiFi service, and that’s something you’ve probably heard about already.

Mesh WiFi is the seamless way of extending your network coverage outside of the normal range of your router. It picks up your WiFi signal and gives it a boost, without you having to connect to separate WiFi extender or powerline networks. Instead, Mesh just increases your WiFi range, giving you a strong connection in more parts of the home or office.

Is mesh WiFi good for businesses?

If you’re familiar with mesh WiFi services, you’ve probably more often than not seen them advertised in the context of home broadband. They’re sold as being great for streaming and gaming in more rooms around the house. And that’s true, but the same technology that makes mesh WiFi so good for doing more online around the home also makes it ideal for smaller businesses to get a great boost around the office.

Consider this scenario as an example:

Your broadband connection enters your office at the front of your building, which is where your Zen router sits. But your favourite meeting room for making video calls is right at the back of the office, several rooms, walls, and a not inconsiderable distance away.

Although you really do want to make your video calls from your favourite meeting room, its distance from your router means patchy WiFi reception and poor performance.

But all’s not lost, because you can still ensure great WiFi reception in your meeting room. All you need is Zen EveryRoom.

With EveryRoom, we’ll send you a WiFi repeater to help boost your WiFi signal to, you guessed it, every room in your office. In this scenario, you might find a spot in the middle of the office that gets a good signal from your router. Your repeater will pick up this good signal, give it a boost, and send it on to those previously hard to reach spots. And voila, you’ve now got excellent WiFi coverage in your favourite meeting room and can make all your video calls from your number one spot.

That’s just one example of course. With Zen EveryRoom guaranteeing better WiFi coverage throughout the office, you’re ensuring a more stable connection for all your connected devices for better VoIP calls, file backups, online queries and more.

The Zen EveryRoom coverage guarantee, by the way, covers properties no larger than 170 square metres. If your office is larger than this, you may benefit from some of our other business connectivity options.

The need for speed?

When businesses encounter poor WiFi performance their first thought is often to blame the speed of their broadband connection. But bandwidth is only part of what makes good WiFi, and you may find yourself disappointed if you pay for a speed boost and don’t enjoy improved performance in certain parts of the office.

Instead, EveryRoom helps to maximise your available bandwidth by helping every part of the office make use of its full potential. Especially when you have multiple users and devices connecting, you want to help them make the most of your wireless network.

That isn’t to say that speed isn’t important of course, and the more users you have, the more overall bandwidth you’ll want to be able to provide to them. But the answer to your WiFi dropouts might lie not in better broadband, but an improved office network.

That’s why we recommend Zen EveryRoom for smaller businesses that aren’t getting the very best wireless coverage in every part of the office.
