Case Study: Greatwaves scales proactive wifi network monitoring with Cronitor

GreatWaves monitors devices every 20 seconds with Cronitor

Greatwaves, a premier commercial internet service provider based in the Netherlands, faced the challenge of ensuring stability and consistency across its complex wifi networks for clients like sports stadiums and tech campuses. To proactively fix problems before customers noticed them and to scale their business, they needed a robust monitoring solution and turned to Cronitor in 2017.

Using Cronitor's monitoring service and REST API, Greatwaves implemented a system where every router, switch, and firewall pings Cronitor directly every twenty seconds. This triggers automated alerts and proactive support if a device goes offline. The solution from Cronitor enabled Greatwaves to automate deployments and support, scale their business nationwide with a small team, and significantly reduce management overhead and security risks.
