The Halliwell Jones Stadium chooses Extricom http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/2011/11/the-halliwell-jones-stadium-%e2%80%93-home-of-%e2%80%98warrington-wolves%e2%80%99-chooses-extricom-to-enhance-their-fan-experience-and-generate-revenue-growth/ http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/2011/11/the-halliwell-jones-stadium-%e2%80%93-home-of-%e2%80%98warrington-wolves%e2%80%99-chooses-extricom-to-enhance-their-fan-experience-and-generate-revenue-growth/#comments Fri, 25 Nov 2011 15:15:22 +0000 tina http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/?p=2813 Halliwell StadiumThe Halliwell Jones Stadium – home of ‘Warrington Wolves’ – chooses Extricom to Enhance their Fan Experience and Generate Revenue Growth.

Sporting venues often bring thousands or tens of thousands of people together to enjoy a single event. These days, passionate fans are expecting more than ever to enjoy a reliable and consistent mobility experience and to use their personal devices as they would anywhere else. At the same time, stadium and team owners are looking for ways to make money, to regain revenue from their initial investment.

 Whilst traditional wireless infrastructure providers have inherently struggled with performance issues within stadium constructions or have had to develop venue-specific additional technologies, the standard Extricom solution with its patented Channel Blanket™ architecture will simply deliver interference-free connectivity and much more, as The Halliwell Jones Stadium discovered.

This stadium is not only an iconic local sports venue but in recent years has been the hub for many community events and provides a model that other leading sports clubs throughout the world have studied. Following the stadium’s re-development, Andy Topham, Marketing and CRM Manager at the stadium was looking to deploy an effective wireless LAN solution in both the North Stand at 65m x 12m and the East Stand at 100m x 15m. The East Stand also houses the club’s health and education facilities and their banqueting and conference facilities.

At the end of the current season we knew we were going to build a further new stand to complete the stadium set-up. We needed a wireless solution that was flexible, easily scalable and would remain unaffected by environmental changes. Extricom fitted the bill.”
Mr Andy Topham Marketing & CRM Manager Halliwell Jones Stadium

Brand New Case Study – Caludon Castle School http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/2011/08/brand-new-case-study-caluden-castle-school/ http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/2011/08/brand-new-case-study-caluden-castle-school/#comments Mon, 22 Aug 2011 13:01:40 +0000 tina http://www.solutionshouse.ltd.uk/?p=2248 Instant Connectivity and ‘Everywhere Learning’ achieved. Extricom passes with A+ performance (unlike the competition).

Caludon Castle School chooses the Extricom Channel Blanket wireless solution to replace the failing existing Cisco wireless network.

With the simultaneous demands of both the student body and the staff network, the original Cisco wireless solution installed during the rebuild was faltering. The 3rd generation cell-based technology was unable to cope with concurrent connections required to get a classroom of 30 users seamlessly connected to the network without considerable delay and performance reduction. And the constant re-arrangement of the flexible seating set-up in one of the teaching halls also meant that the wireless signal became continuously intermittent.

Driven by the need to offer instant connectivity and ‘everywhere learning’ across the campus, Mr Paul Harvey, Assistant Headteacher at Caludon Castle decided to investigate alternative wireless solutions. The only one that made the grade? Extricom.

How Remote Data Backup Works

Functionality

The Gigasoft software runs a daily fully automated offsite data backup of your important files and data.

After installation of the software you select the files and/or directories that you wish to backup.

Then after encryption and compression a full offsite back-up will be made from the selected files. These files are sent to the Gigasoft offsite servers for safe storage through a SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) connection.

From that moment on, a daily incremental backup will be made of all new and changed files. This is at a time of the day determined by yourself. Your data is constantly being replicated from our data centre to another secure data storage location to ensure that there’s always a copy available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week.

You can access and use your remote backup data at any time and from anywhere through a standard internet browser.

You will receive reports concerning data backup status, file sizes as well as an overview of all activities.
