Connectivity for nurseries and garden centers

Seasonal retail spread over greenhouses and yards. A workshop, a yard or a front counter, each with machines, cameras and customers on the same network.

Internet, wireless and security for nurseries and garden centers

Each of the three has to be right, and they are usually bought from different companies. We compare them together.

Internet

Point of sale and inventory rely on the store connection.

Wireless

Registers and scanners need Wi-Fi outdoors and in the greenhouses.

Security

Card payments need a separated network.

The register is in the greenhouse

By the Telecom Agency advisory team

In spring the tills move outside among the plants. The Wi-Fi does not follow them, and card payments fail under the glass.

What a consultant changes

An advisor designs coverage for the yard and greenhouses and protects the payment network. Telecom Agency sizes the service for the eight weeks that make the year, on terms that do not charge for that peak all winter.
