Commercial Properties, Inc., a longstanding commercial real estate broker and property management firm in Tempe, Arizona, has been serving the community for over 40 years. Known for its commitment to operational efficiency, the company recently took a significant step to modernize its network infrastructure. Partnering with NETGEAR and local IT integrator Alpha Tech, they successfully implemented a comprehensive upgrade across their four office locations.

A Focus on Connectivity and Growth

Luke Guillow, Information Technology Director at Commercial Properties, identified the need for a streamlined and scalable network solution to support the company’s expanding operations. By transitioning to NETGEAR Business equipment, they were able to simplify their VPN and site-to-site connectivity under a unified system. This change not only optimized their network policies but also ensured alignment with their business goals.

Seamless Deployment with Expert Support

NETGEAR and Alpha Tech played pivotal roles in the transition. The team began by evaluating the physical and remote environments of the firm’s offices, using tools like heat maps to design a WiFi network with optimal coverage. Their focus on efficiency ensured that the company avoided unnecessary expenditures while preparing for future growth.

Deployment was a smooth process. Over a weekend, the Commercial Properties team preconfigured and installed 23 pieces of NETGEAR equipment across its locations. The plug-and-play setup, combined with the proactive support from the NETGEAR Business support team and Alpha Tech, minimized downtime and logistical challenges.

Tangible Results for End Users

The upgrade delivered immediate benefits. The network became more stable, VPN connections improved significantly, and users experienced fewer frustrations during idle periods. By replacing outdated equipment, the company achieved a modern, reliable system capable of scaling with its needs.

A Trusted Partner for Business Growth

Commercial Properties’ success underscores NETGEAR’s capability as a business solutions provider. Traditionally associated with residential products, NETGEAR demonstrated its commitment to supporting business clients with robust technology and exceptional service.

Through this collaboration, Commercial Properties enhanced its technological infrastructure, paving the way for continued growth and success in the highly competitive real estate market.
