Rogers supplied Blinds To Go with a failover solution for the stores' POS systems that included Cradlepoint mobile broadband wireless routers connected to Rogers wireless network.

Blinds To Go was seeking a last-mile telecom redundancy solution for point-of-sale (POS) systems in their retail outlets. Their goal was a failover solution that would provide continuous uptime for store transactions in the event of an outage of the primary wired source of Internet connectivity.

Constantin Koutrias, Systems Administration for Blinds To Go, was specifically looking for a wireless solution: "90% of the issues with land line disruptions are in the last mile, so when your primary land line goes down, chances are that your secondary land line-the one you're using for redundancy-will go down, too."

Community Home Support Services Association (CHSSA) supports the elderly and people who live with physical and/or developmental disabilities by providing a variety of health care services during in-home client visits by community health workers.

CHSSA's head office used voicemails to communicate client schedules to community health workers. This was a time-consuming process for both supervisors and workers; leaving and retrieving voicemail messages was an inefficient way to exchange appointment information leaving room for communication breakdowns and missed appointments. Moreover, health workers had to manually update patient reports following visits and also spend valuable time writing up time sheets.

Coventry Connections is an Ottawa, ON based taxi fleet operator that offers end-to-end services for advanced taxi fleet management. The company operates nine taxi fleets totalling nearly 1,000 vehicles in six Canadian cities and provides over 10 million rides a year.

Coventry Connections sought to improve customer experience and achieve operational efficiencies by introducing a new driver payment system. Under the old system, customers not paying cash could pay either by credit card or taxi chit. The former involved manually processing the transaction and authorizing the payment. The latter offered greater convenience but also involved manual processing and paper-based billing. The company recognized that a wireless payment solution could drive efficiencies while enabling the company to provide a differentiated service to customers.
