The Challenge
In 2023, a national health and beauty retailer with more than 200 store locations began rolling out tablet-based clienteling tools to help beauty advisors deliver personalized recommendations and loyalty-driven promotions. Inconsistent in-store Wi-Fi and aging network infrastructure caused application slowdowns, interrupted transactions, and poor experiences during peak periods — and the retailer lacked centralized network visibility.
