"FreeWave is growing in all of our critical business verticals and geographies," said Scott Allen, Chief Marketing Officer for FreeWave. "Our partners and customers are genuinely delighted with the products and the professional, courteous support they receive from the company."

According to the Mount Washington Observatory's IT Manager, Peter Gagne, FreeWave's winning combination of proven products together with its world-class customer service set it apart. "For almost 13 years, FreeWave radios have been on-duty continuously, and I personally can attest to their durability and reliability in conditions that, frankly, radios shouldn't survive. These radios routinely are exposed to bitter cold and winds that far exceed the radios specifications, and have always passed the test. It is because of this outstanding record of performance, as well as the superior customer support we receive, that we have decided to stay with FreeWave, despite the multitude of competitors, in the upgrade of our ARVP sites this year."

"We are driven to succeed by ensuring that all our products, service and support meet or exceed our customers' and partners' needs," explained Kim Niederman, CEO of FreeWave. "We are making investments in our technology, product and technical support, and leadership teams to meet the most challenging demands to effectively compete in the ever-changing IIoT space. We are poised to continue our leadership by always putting our customers and partners first. That is the edge that will continue to make FreeWave a leader amongst its competitors."
