It’s getting easier for travelling enterprise WiFi  users to connect to local WiFi hotspots. Boingo federates access to networks operated by different suppliers. And now Verizon Business ( News - Alert) has launched a new WiFi interface that makes it easier than ever to connect to more than 70,000 Verizon-provided hot spots worldwide.
The new interface, Verizon WiFi ( News - Alert) Connect, is available as part of Verizon Enterprise Mobility services suite. In addition, the company also announced it has extended these services to Latin America.
Verizon Wi-Fi Connect maximizes the benefits of hot spot connectivity as part of an overall enterprise mobility strategy, providing integrated billing and management capabilities including monitoring of WiFi usage.
The service automatically senses the presence of a Verizon WiFi hot spot signal. Then the user simply clicks to gain access to the Internet and from there to a corporate network.
Verizon WiFi Connect is interoperable with all common wireless LAN software utilities, and works with existing connectivity preferences and corporate security procedures.
