Business Center PCs & Kiosks

How does Thinix protect guests/users?

Thinix utilizes a three-tiered defense strategy encompassing System, Network, and User Protection. We adhere to stringent cybersecurity standards to ensure user privacy is safeguarded while maintaining reliable, high-performance PC operation.

How does Thinix protect my primary business network?

Our systems utilize secure network isolation, keeping guest-use technology separate from your primary network to mitigate cybersecurity threats like lateral malware or ransomware spread.

Is technical support included with Thinix Business Centers?

All systems are fully backed by the Thinix GuestFirst™ Support team. Our team handles all technical assistance, proactive software updates, and system patches to ensure your business center remains up-to-date and operates at peak performance.

What hardware formats does Thinix support?

Thinix Business Centers are available in both PC and Apple iMac formats. We provide enterprise-grade All-in-One hardware designed to match your brand standards, or we can deploy our software on tablet kiosks for more compact guest-use environments.

How does Thinix protect user privacy?

Every session is protected by Thinix All-Clear™, which securely deletes all browsing history and files upon session end, while Failsafe™ Session Timeout automatically ends sessions if a user forgets to log out.

Can we convert our existing PCs into secure kiosks?

Yes, through the Thinix Retrofit™ program, you can maximize your ROI by reusing existing hardware. If your current systems support and have Windows 11 (Home, Professional, or Enterprise) installed, we can effortlessly upgrade them with our secure kiosk software.

Can the interface be customized to match our property’s brand?

Yes. Thinix provides a Custom-Branded Interface that adapts to your property’s environment, ensuring a polished "first impression" for guests and residents.

Are these systems built for high-traffic environments?

Absolutely. We utilize Enterprise-Grade Equipment designed specifically for longevity and high-traffic use, ensuring your technology hub remains productive for years.

How do you prevent equipment theft or tampering in public spaces?

We offer PC Security Enhancement Kits that lock down your PCs and peripherals (keyboards/mice) to prevent guests from disconnecting or tampering with the hardware.

FamilySafe WiFi

What is Thinix FamilySafe® Guest WiFi?

Thinix FamilySafe® is an enterprise-grade managed WiFi solution engineered to handle high-demand applications such as hospitality, multi-dwelling units, and business environments. It combines high-speed internet access (HSIA) with advanced security features like client-isolation and CIPA-compliant web filtering to protect both guests and property owners while ensuring a seamless, high-performance connection.

How does client-isolation improve guest security?

Client-isolation is a security feature that prevents computer-to-computer connections within the hotel network. By blocking these direct links, it stops the spread of viruses and malware between guest devices, keeping private information significantly safer than on traditional, unprotected networks while defending your business from evolving threats.

What kind of support is included with Thinix GuestFirst™ Support?

Thinix provides 24/7 U.S.-based GuestFirst Support, a three-tiered system that handles everything from simple connectivity issues to complex infrastructure troubleshooting. This unified service manages both guest-facing assistance and proactive network monitoring, removing the technical burden from your staff so they can focus on daily operations.

What hardware is included in a Thinix Guest WiFi package?

Thinix provides tailored hardware solutions based on your property’s specific needs, which typically include a gateway, switch(es), and wireless access points. In some cases, to maximize your ROI, we allow for the reuse of existing equipment if it is fully functional and operationally compatible with our management standards. All provided hardware is enterprise-grade, ensuring peak performance and a seamless guest experience. 

How quickly can a hotel expect a return on investment (ROI)?

Properties using Thinix often recoup their technology investment in just 3-6 months. By reducing connectivity issues by 90% and improving guest satisfaction scores compared to industry averages, our systems help drive increased occupancy and higher room rates (RevPAR) for long-term profitability.
