Some comments from our customers

"Finally today I got around to finalising the installation. Works a treat. Signal strength at the most distant cabin is very strong. Now I can offer WiFi to my customers. Thanks to everyone for your help and support for this not so tech savvy individual."

"Hi, I just want to say thank you for the brilliant customer service. Companys in the UK could learn something from you guys in New Zealand who are so helpful. I will reccomend you to everyone!"

"Just wanted to say that after traveling throughout NZ for 2 weeks and suffering horrible internet service through many different providers the entire time, I am relieved to finally find a service that works well. Finding proper working internet made me choose to stay at my current (m/h)otel longer than originally planned as a result. Thanks for knowing how to do it right!"

"When we were in New Zealand recently for a month, we stayed in BBH hostels alot. Zenbu had the best wireless internet plan for our purposes because we were able to log on as needed and use our account at some different locations. I have written to BBH to encourage them to use Zenbu or a similar service across the entire BBH system."

"Hi Zenbu Team,
Just wanted to drop you a short message to say how great your system is operating for us. We have installed a Ubiquiti NS2 to our system and the difference is unbelieveable. Guests are commenting on the speed of the Internet and we have not had a single complaint. Keep up the great work, my compliments to Zenbu and also Go-Wifi."

"In several weeks around NZ we have used several different wi-fi providers at campgrounds and Zenbu is the best by far. It is SO nice not to have to rush and worry about a clock ticking. Also the Zenbu pay and status pages are much better designed than those of, e.g., [competitor]."

"Thanks for the response and yes all OK. I am very impressed that you wrote back and also that the phone was answered when I called even though it was outside the times you were officially available. Very friendly answer there too.
As I am far from a "techy" and this is the first time I have taken the laptop away on business in NZ, I was pleasantly surprised to find such a helpful and easy to use service. Well done."

"Hi, i want tell you about my great expierience with using Zenbu on my holiday in NZ. It is so easy and cheap. The iPhone application is very helpful. Every Hotel/Motel should have a Zenbu router. Greetings from Germany."

"A lady had to comment on our no hastle Zenbu WiFi service. Apart from our complimentary 5mb voucher she found the access and use of Zenbu just magic. She had stayed at a Hotel in Wellington where she had to credit card sign up for WiFi she had login difficulties which the Hotel could not help with so she spent 35 minutes on the providers help line with no resolve. So a $20 charge and no service she was a bit apprehensive about our Zenbu service untill she used it. On checkout she was telling everyone about her experience."

"Thanks very much for your help. Your after sales support is great. Will recommend you to others.

Although the size and layout of our complex means that the coverage is not perfect for us it is certainly a good system as far as being easy to manage and, for us, being able to offer free internet access to our guests will hopefully bring us more bookings."

"Just went through the log on this morning to check e-mails and everything seems to be working as advertised. I put mail2web into my browser, was directed through the usual login pages at your end, and then straight to the site as expected.

So your software change seems to have worked the correct magic.

We're off now until we get to the Law Courts Hotel in Dunedin, as they also advertise Zenbu, and confirm that it is working. As you may have guessed, Zenbu access is the main reason for shortlisting an accommodation as we tour NZ. Pity you don't have it in OZ [we now do!], as we fly there from NZ on 27th Feb. Still, we can look forward to a few more days of painless internet.

Once again, thanks for all the help."

"After some searching we have purchased a router from www.zenbu.net.nz. The system is considerably cheaper and simpler to use than other similar systems we found. Their service and free phone assistance was great. I spent a lot of time on the phone with [someone from a competing system] and the set-up costs were too great for a small operation like ours."
