The challenge
Universities and large co-working spaces face unique challenges — thousands of concurrent users, different access needs per role, bandwidth management, and demand for reliable connectivity across multiple zones.
  • High-capacity portals — designed for 10,000–50,000+ concurrent users on Scale and Enterprise plans.
  • User type segmentation — separate portals, speeds, and caps for students, staff, visitors, and co-working members.
  • Zone-level analytics — see which buildings and floors attract the most users to inform space planning.
  • Usage policies — set bandwidth caps, session limits, and content filtering per user type, zone, or time of day.
  • Broadcast announcements — send event invites, safety alerts, or surveys to all connected users in seconds.

“Managing WiFi for 14,000 daily users used to require a full IT team. With Centipid our admin runs it from one screen and we have better analytics than ever.”
