The guest portal has a customizable feedback system and supports up to five (SMS, Facebook, Voucher, etc.) login methods with user data collection functions.
With Waver SmartOne, you can interact with your guests by creating advertising campaigns and receiving effective customer feedback. Your own interface with start and login screen can be customized.
It helps you improve WiFi user experience, business image, services, advertising opportunities and much more.

The history of guest logins and connected devices can be displayed at minimum, average and peak times. SmartOne gives you statistics for guest user data, such as first and last login time, emails, cell phone numbers, ratings with comments from the feedback system and much more. Statistics can be viewed from hours to seasons and instantly exported or synchronized with third-party platforms or an FTP server. All data are displayed in lists or time-based graphic diagrams for easy evaluation.

GUEST USER AUTHENTICATION
Choose between free access or four different types of authentication methods with data collection capabilities for your guests: username with validity period, email, Facebook or SMS.

WEBSITE ACCESS FILTER
Website filtering with blacklist and whitelist mode options gives you complete control over web access to specific URLs, making your network more secure or allowing restricted access.
