Broadband leaders can disrupt by focusing on community
If speed and price are the go-to-market strategy, commoditization and price wars are the only outcome—as we have seen in mobile. To compete and win, BSPs need a community strategy that empowers all aspects of the community: residential, business, education, multi-dwelling units (MDUs), and government.

Solutions
Solutions to increase subscriber engagement and satisfaction
A managed service solution for a new generation of multifamily housing
Broadband Service Providers need to provide dependable internet services to Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs) and apartments. By offering the proper connectivity, Wi-Fi solutions for apartments and MDUs can bring significant benefits to a service provider.
High-capacity public Wi-Fi for entire communities
Community Wi-Fi offers connectivity across an entire area, including town squares, streets, office buildings, event centers, schools, hospitals, and first responder buildings.
With community broadband, you can ensure everyone gets access to a reliable network—even if they’re on-the-go.
Protect your customers with home security
For subscribers, smart home cameras are becoming increasingly important. The rise of smart homes and connected devices increases the potential for cyber attacks and network vulnerabilities.
Broadband service providers have a unique opportunity to offer home network security as a value-added service to their customers.
Elevate the connected home experience for subscribers
Empower your subscribers with the convenience of managing every aspect of their connected homes through a single, user-friendly application.
Your subscribers can get a clear view of their home network and enjoy full control over every aspect of their connected devices.
Help subscribers' families protect their children's online lives
Today, children have never known a time when they haven’t been connected to the internet. In fact, 90 percent of children have access to the internet in some manner and almost half of teens report being online constantly. Further, more than a third of children report having experienced cyberbullying, yet only 10 percent disclose the incident to their parent or guardian. There is something that can be done about this.
Small business internet and broadband
Every small business needs internet to run smoothly. Expand your reach and grow new revenue streams by offering small business internet and Wi-Fi.
BSPs that specialize in business broadband have the ability to provide fast and reliable Wi-Fi connectivity, especially when it comes to providing internet access at the point of sale or for hotspots at offices. Additionally, customers can enjoy a seamless online experience, which can ultimately lead to increased sales and customer satisfaction.
