Dominique Renaudie, President of Connect Data commented, “We are excited about this new partnership with Cloud4Wi and to have the possibility to offer this unique, and innovative platform to our customers. Today, users require a Wi-Fi connection always available and stores need an easy-to-use platform to offer Wi-Fi to their customers, while being compensated for that. Cloud4Wi addresses this challenge through its customizable portal with powerful proximity marketing, advertising and analytics applications.”

Gianni Altamura, VP International Sales of Cloud4Wi commented, “We all know that nowadays the Wi-Fi has become a basic commodity. Customers want to be able to connect anywhere and anytime. Moreover, they expect this kind of service for free. Therefore, venues need to adopt a solution that allow them to make the most out of their Wi-Fi service. In this way they will be able to address their customers’ needs and, on the other hand, they will be able to monetize the Wi-Fi service they are offering.
