Testimonials
"Prior to using webbeams we've dealt both with our own in-house router and with another national wi-fi service
provider. Neither solutions worked well for us as our wifi service and quality was extremely poor, intermittent and,
on top of that, we had service interruptions at least 2-3 times a week. While other wifi providers we worked with
offered cheaper prices and marketing pamphlets, the bottom line was that our wifi service became notorious for
being unreliable. Instead of serving customers and making drinks, our employees at times had to troubleshoot
routers and modems.

Switching to webBeams proved to be one of the best decision we've made this year. Not only their service was
reliable and solid, they also went above and beyond in helping us troubleshoot our ISP problems. In the end, our
new wifi service started to bring back more and more customers who had previously given up. WebBeams also
offers a very attractive revenue-sharing model which may completely cover your monthly expenses and even
bring in some profit from customres using our wireless roaming network. I would highly recommend WebBeams to
any small business or a chain. Do not make a mistake of sticking around poor wifi service providers, WebBeams
is a much better and reliable option."

"I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with your service. My coffeehouse became a Webbeams hot spot three months ago. Prior to this, I offered free, unlimited wi-fi service, using an off the shelf router, to all of my customers. I had istakenly assumed that simply setting up a router and offering free wi-fi to my customers would result in a relatively effortless win-win situation for all involved. Instead, I found myself devoting more and more of my time to dealing with “Wi-Fi” issues. A growing number of customers were setting up what seemed to be home offices from my coffeehouse, sometimes taking up more than one table for hours at a time. Furthermore, as more customers began to use the wi-fi, the system became more unstable and more likely to crash. Not only did this create a negative experience for my customers, but it also caused frustration for my staff on two accounts. One, they had to take precious time to reset the router. Two, while the internet was down, my POS system could not process credit cards.

I can honestly say that the time and energy I now devote to issues surrounding my wi-fi service has been reduced by 90%. Since teaming up with Webeams, my router has never had to be reset. NEVER. This had been an up to a twice per week occurrence prior to Webbeams. In addition, the partnership has resulted in a net revenue gain for my business! My hope was to break even by bringing in enough revenue each month to pay my subscription fee. Instead, I am actually making money and should recoup my initial hardware expenditures in less than one year.

"Our store has long been a place that tries to offer the most cutting edge and relevant “stuff” available. That’s why we offered internet connectivity before internet connectivity was cool. And when wireless became available we offered it to our customers as well.

We regularly increased the quality of our service to customers and currently offer an extremely fast connection for free. People love it and as laptops have become cheaper and more common we found ourselves with many people, young and old, surfing the web at JP’s. And with that came the beginnings of our problems. We offer wireless for free to our customers, but being an uncontrolled wireless connection (we allowed people to access the wireless with no sign-in or password) more and more “non-customers” started to hang out and surfing. Worse, they began to get snarky with us because they could, “sit in their car and access the wireless anyway”.

So, I began to look for a way to control our wireless service and yet still give it away to paying customers for free. I found WebBeams and although it took me a few months to make the decision to implement, I have been so very glad I did. I no longer have assistant managers complaining about people not buying anything, taking up valuable seating and being rude to us. And the way the WebBeams system is structured people are also paying for wireless access when want or need more time. And those customers purchase enough wireless access that it has covered all costs associated with WebBeams every month and enough more to cover most or all of DSL expense. This has bumped my wireless service from the expense category to the income category while still giving away free wireless access to customers who want it.

So, thanks for creating a system that works and I hope you use this letter to help educate others who are as skeptical as I was."
