Visitors expect more than a connection.

Most venue WiFi just gets people online — it doesn't deepen the visit, capture who came, or secure the operation. Multi-zone buildings leave AV systems, IoT, staff, and vendors on one flat network. Cloud4Wi turns connectivity into immersive experiences, visitor data, and a secure venue — on the access points you already own.
GUEST WIFI FOR MUSEUMS & ARTS CENTERS

Turn every visit into an immersive, connected experience

Visitors connect once through a branded captive portal and reconnect automatically with Passpoint. From there, Cloud4Wi triggers location-aware content — digital guides, exhibit info, and offers — based on where they are, while every connection builds a consented first-party profile and your venue app stays connected even in low-coverage galleries.

Seamless Visitor WiFi

Give visitors automatic, secure WiFi via captive portal and Passpoint — no repeat logins.

Visitor Data & Insights

Discover who your visitors are, what they prefer, and how they move through the venue.

Location-Aware Content

Trigger digital guides, exhibit content, and offers based on where visitors are.

Mobile-App Connectivity

Keep your venue app and audio guides connected on-site, even where cellular coverage is poor.

CLOUD NETWORK ACCESS CONTROL FOR MUSEUMS & ARTS CENTERS

Secure staff, AV systems, and every connected device

Give staff identity-based access through your IdP; assign per-device PPSK credentials to IoT and headless devices like AV systems, sensors, ticketing kiosks, and cameras; and grant vendors scoped, time-limited access. This isolates operational systems from visitor WiFi — reducing breach risk with no on-prem RADIUS server, no MDM, and no rip-and-replace.

Staff & BYOD

Give staff and their devices identity-based access through SSO and your identity provider.

IoT & Headless Devices

Issue per-device PPSK credentials to AV systems, sensors, ticketing kiosks, and cameras.

Vendors & Contractors

Grant vendors and contractors scoped, time-limited access, revoked automatically when they leave.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about guest WiFi, Passpoint, compliance, and how Cloud4Wi works.

Visitors connect once through a branded captive portal and reconnect automatically with Passpoint. From there, Cloud4Wi can trigger location-aware content — digital guides, exhibit information, and offers — based on where they are in the venue, and keep your app and audio guides working even in galleries with poor cellular coverage. The visit becomes interactive, not just online.

Yes. Cloud4Wi is hardware-independent and runs on the access points and controllers you already own — Cisco, Meraki, HPE Aruba, Ruckus, Extreme, and more — via standard protocols. There's no rip-and-replace and no proprietary hardware. You manage every gallery, hall, and venue from one dashboard and roll out zone by zone without disrupting visitors.

With consent, museums can capture first-party data such as email, preferences, and on-site behavior, building visitor profiles for marketing and membership. Cloud4Wi is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR-native, with granular consent management, configurable data retention, localized privacy notices, and a MyData Portal for data-rights requests — so visitors opt in explicitly and the venue owns the data.

Cloud4Wi's Network Access Control gives staff identity-based access through your IdP, assigns per-device PPSK credentials to IoT and headless devices like AV systems, sensors, ticketing kiosks, and cameras, and grants vendors scoped, time-limited access. This isolates operational systems from visitor WiFi, reduces breach risk, and lets the team grant or revoke any device or person instantly.

Because Cloud4Wi is cloud-native and overlays your existing access points, most venues go live in hours, not months — no controllers to install and no hardware to swap. You design a branded portal and content rules once, then apply them across zones from one dashboard. Larger institutions typically pilot a wing or gallery, then expand across the venue.

Museums use Cloud4Wi to grow opted-in visitor contacts, deepen engagement with location-aware content, support membership and marketing, and cut WiFi support tickets. For example, Fondazione Palazzo Strozzi gathered 40,000+ contacts in 24 months with a 53% marketing opt-in rate. Value is measured through opted-in profiles, engagement and opt-in rates, repeat visits, and email performance.
