Trusted across retail & commercial
Shopping Malls by the numbers
Challenges & fixes
Every tenant wants their own network, but the mall needs one backbone
Individual stores often run their own WiFi on top of mall infrastructure, creating interference and making it impossible for mall operations to get a single view of network health.
- ✓Multi-Tenant / White-Label Controller lets each tenant manage their own network on shared infrastructure
- ✓OpenX Cloud gives mall operations one view across every tenant
- ✓Zero-Touch Provisioning onboards new tenant spaces without disrupting neighbors
Mall-wide foot traffic data is scattered across individual tenants
Mall operators need aggregate foot traffic and dwell time data to set leasing rates and plan events, but that data is fragmented across whichever tenants happen to track it themselves.
- ✓WiFi Analytics & Monetization aggregates footfall data mall-wide
- ✓Captive Portal on common-area WiFi captures baseline traffic data
- ✓Data Compliance & Consent Management keeps aggregate reporting privacy-compliant
Our solutions
OpenX Cloud is an open wireless cloud controller for Enterprise, SMB, and MDU deployments, built on an open technology stack (OpenWiFi cloud SDK and AP NOS). It runs on low-cost, low-compute AP hardware from any supported ODM — no hardware vendor lock-in — with full WiFi 6/6E support and backward compatibility for WiFi 4/5. Deploy on AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, or your own data center, as SaaS or a licensed platform.
OpenX Gateway is the controller underneath Wifi-Soft's guest and staff networks — hotspot management and AAA authentication in one place, whether you run one site or a few hundred.
OpenX WiFi is the OpenWiFi-based access point firmware behind every Wifi-Soft deployment — Wifi-Soft doesn't manufacture access points. Instead, OpenX WiFi runs on a growing list of supported ODM hardware, so you pick the AP that fits your budget and site instead of being locked into one vendor's box, all managed centrally through OpenX Gateway or OpenX Cloud.
