Aruba Meridian
Meridian is a mobile-app software platform from Aruba, a Hewlett-Packard Enterprise company, that allows public-facing enterprise venues – retailers, hotels, casinos, resorts, airports, hospitals, and convention centers – to create or improve mobile apps that engage visitors on their mobile devices. These venues can leverage Meridian to deliver location-relevant information such as mapping, turn-by-turn directions, venue-specific information, and proximity-based notifications to mobile-app users during their visits. The platform’s cloud-based Meridian Editor is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) content management system (CMS) that houses a location’s Meridian-powered app content. It offers an easy way for venues to create a complete app from scratch with its AppMaker features. Infuse your mobile app with location-based features and vastly improve visitor engagement.

ProxiHost
ProxiHost is a proximity-based virtual concierge mobile app that allows an anchor business (e.g. hotel, fitness club), or an entity targeting a community retail network such as a retailer's association, to promote a group of related businesses. Users create an interest profile and when physically near a matching business, a mobile notification for that business triggers. ProxiHost allows for serendipitous business discovery by consumers, and thus is the perfect complement to internet search as target customers do not need to know the business in advance. It can also be combined with ProxiPass and ProxiScreen to offer additional opportunities for customer engagement as part of our customer engagement staircase concept. Participating businesses place a small beacon near the entrance of their location. Users with the free ProxiHost mobile app on their phone, or our ProxiHost SDK integrated into the anchor business' mobile app, will receive a mobile push notification when they come nearby.
