More time is effective - 70 minutes extra each day, because wireless workers stay connected to the network for up to 1.75 hours longer

Improved accuracy - 63% say it helps them perform everyday tasks better, and report accuracy improves by an average of 50%

Job satisfaction - 87% of respondents believe Wireless LAN improves their quality of life, with 43% overall believing that this improvement is significant

• Average time to fully pay back the initial costs of WLAN installations was 8.9 months.
• 97% of customers said that their Wireless Local Area Network met or exceeded their expectations to provide their company with a competitive advantage.
• Productivity benefits quantified were found to account for 48% of the total return on investment.
