The partnership
Increase in log-ins each month35%
Purple is scalable, cloud-based guest WiFi software, offering customers fast access to free WiFi through social media login. In return, companies benefit from real time analytical insights, customer demographic data, information on customers movements around the venue, plus an engagement tool to send targeted customer communications.
Purple has over 20 million users across 125 countries. Purple is a powerful and secure platform, with features such as social login, enhanced social media interaction, family friendly content filtering and real time insight and analytics.
Purple can be deployed on new or existing Extreme, Zebra and Wings infrastructure. Purple is an over the top (OTT) solution for any Extreme Identifi, Netsight Oneview and Wings Platform.
The joint solution shifts wireless discussions to line-of-business and marketing needs, unlocking new revenue streams.
Purple is fully integrated with Extreme wireless APs, controllers and the Extreme Netsight Oneview. Extreme Identifi/Wings wireless access points deliver robust guest WiFi performance; they can be deployed as controller managed.
Extreme NetSight Oneview
Extreme Netsight Oneview based analytics provide a wealth of information about people and devices either nearby or connected to the WiFi.
The Extreme location data is made available to Purple customers via the Purple Portal. The information is matched with the user’s demographic profile, providing valuable insights into customer behaviour.
The business intelligence delivered by the Extreme data, combined with the information Purple collect when guests log in, can be used to improve the customer experience. Allowing marketers to segment and target customers based on their age, gender, loyalty, and their physical location in a venue, results in promotions that are relevant and timely. The reports available can also help to drive operational improvements, ensuring busy areas are staffed accordingly and that the venue’s layout is fully optimized.
