Ruckus Acquires Cloudpath Networks

Ruckus have announced that they have acquired Cloudpath Networks, a privately held company that provides a leading easy-to-use, secure, Wi-Fi onboarding solution for schools and universities. Cloudpath pioneered Wi-Fi onboarding self-service in 2006 and is a leader in certificate-based Wi-Fi security with over 300 deployments, from the largest universities to smaller primary and secondary schools.

Ruckus and Haptic Networks are very excited to integrate Cloudpath into our Wi-Fi portfolio for education. Schools need to be able to easily and securely onboard a wide range of different devices and users, and Cloudpath is a comprehensive, easy to use platform that enables schools to readily design and implement custom, self-service workflows that reduce the impact on IT support resources. Furthermore, Cloudpath includes industry-first support for Chromebook devices, the fastest-growing in-classroom platforms.

With the addition of Cloudpath, Northamptonshire WiFi specialists Haptic Networks continue to strengthen our portfolio and provide you with solutions to address emerging and critical market requirements.  Cloudpath will be available from November 2, 2015.
