What’s happening today

Hybrid learning and streaming‑heavy habits push Wi‑Fi and WAN to their limits at predictable and surprise moments—orientation, finals, sports, concerts, and patch‑days. Research and specialized labs demand deterministic performance while student devices, IoT, and guest access multiply the variables.

Administrators want demonstrably fair access and clear improvements in student satisfaction, while network teams must preserve privacy and comply with governance policies.

Peak surges: dorms, lecture halls, arenas create time‑boxed hotspots.

Competing priorities: research, classes, events, safety systems.

Privacy matters: explainable policies students and faculty accept.

 

Why current approaches fail

Speed‑only upgrades look good on paper but don’t fix buffer wheels during peak classes. Transport counters don’t reveal which apps or buildings suffer, so tickets escalate and root cause takes too long. One‑size policies punish everyone and trigger pushback.

Experience blinders: latency/jitter don’t equal student QoE.

Blunt shaping: generic limits worsen fairness issues.

Opaque comms: care lacks evidence students understand.

 

Why AppLogic Networks

See More
Visibility into apps, QoE, behavior, and sentiment competitors can’t deliver.

Do More
Adaptive controls (fairness, prioritization, smoothing, slice alignment) that respond live.

Unlock More
Growth through differentiated tiers, monetization, and reduced churn.

Observe: QoE by dorm/hall; sentiment; research baselines.

Optimize: App‑aware fairness; event surge playbooks; research VLAN prioritization.

Secure: Keep collaboration/LMS available during incidents; policy guardrails that respect privacy.

Additional Benefits

  • Lower, deferred, or eliminated CAPEX costs for network equipment to increase bandwidth capacity,
  • Reduced OPEX costs due to lower subscription and network service costs and higher NetOps team productivity,
  • Maintaining agreed SLAs with various constituents and maximizing student, faculty and staff Quality of Experience
  • The ability to maintain business continuity, reduce trouble-tickets and have faster mean-time to resolution of network problems
