Jilani Place and UniFi: Shaping the Future of Networking in Coworking Spaces

Jilani Place has teamed up with UniFi to deliver high-performance networking that fuels coworking productivity, flexibility, and innovation—now and in the future.
June, 2024

As coworking continues to shape the way we work, the demand for fast, secure, and reliable networking infrastructure is more important than ever. At Jilani Place, our vision for the modern workspace is rooted in connectivity, community, and innovation. That’s why we partnered with UniFi to build a seamless and scalable networking solution that meets the evolving needs of today’s professionals—and tomorrow’s.

In a recent UniFi case study, Jilani Place was featured as a model for smart, high-performance coworking environments. The collaboration between UniFi and our team allowed us to overcome complex networking challenges and create a digitally native space that supports the dynamic rhythm of modern work.

Why Networking Infrastructure Matters in Coworking Spaces

Unlike traditional offices, coworking spaces must accommodate a wide variety of devices, users, and working styles. From freelancers with bandwidth-heavy creative tools to remote teams hosting video conferences and startups deploying new applications, a robust network is the lifeblood of the operation.

Poor connectivity disrupts workflows, reduces productivity, and undermines the value proposition of a premium coworking experience. Jilani Place knew that only a forward-thinking infrastructure partner could support the demands of its members—and UniFi delivered.

But connectivity isn’t just about keeping people online. It’s about enabling ideas to move, innovation to happen in real-time, and teams to collaborate across borders and time zones. In a coworking space, networking isn’t just a utility—it’s part of the value and identity of the workplace.

Building a Smart Workspace with UniFi Technology

One of the key takeaways from our partnership with UniFi was the ability to manage every aspect of our network from a centralized dashboard. From UniFi gateways to access points and switches, the entire system was designed to scale with the growth of our space.

The implementation included:

  • High-performance access points for seamless Wi-Fi coverage across all rooms
  • Dedicated VLANs to ensure secure and segmented access for tenants
  • Smart traffic routing to prioritize bandwidth for video calls and cloud services
  • Remote network monitoring and diagnostics to reduce IT overhead

With these features, Jilani Place provides a consistently strong and secure internet experience, no matter how many users are logged on or how bandwidth-intensive their tasks are.

Every device, every user, every app that touches our network is supported by a system built for scalability. Whether a solo designer is uploading high-resolution media files or a startup is conducting simultaneous Zoom meetings across five rooms, the infrastructure never flinches. That level of reliability is not only impressive—it’s essential for building trust with our members.

The centralized control also means less downtime. We can quickly pinpoint issues, reroute traffic, and upgrade configurations without interrupting service. For coworking spaces with a lean team, this kind of network agility is a game changer.

Future-Proofing for Flexibility and Growth

The world of work is evolving quickly—and so are the technological requirements of flexible spaces. Hybrid and remote models are here to stay, and coworking environments must rise to meet the challenge with resilient digital infrastructure.

UniFi’s scalable solutions ensure that Jilani Place is ready for what comes next. Whether it’s increased video conferencing, the adoption of AI-powered productivity tools, or the rise of connected smart devices, our infrastructure can handle the bandwidth and complexity of future workflows.

Future-proofing isn’t just about adding capacity—it’s about anticipating how people will work in the years ahead. As AI becomes more deeply embedded into daily workflows, and as devices grow smarter and more interconnected, our network must remain nimble, adaptive, and secure.

With UniFi’s remote management tools, we can also make real-time adjustments to our network, add new users or VLANs, and monitor performance without needing onsite IT staff. This adaptability is essential for maintaining the high standard of service our members expect.

More Than Just Connectivity—A Better Member Experience

Networking technology isn’t just about speed—it’s about experience. When members walk into Jilani Place, they expect to connect instantly and securely, without buffering, dropouts, or interruptions. They want the freedom to move between lounge areas, focus rooms, and meeting spaces while staying connected.

Thanks to our UniFi-powered setup, we’re able to deliver on that expectation every day. Members can rely on fast logins, stable video conferencing, and a secure environment for everything from casual browsing to sensitive data transfers. For teams collaborating across time zones and platforms, this reliability creates peace of mind and improves their work outcomes.

The benefits ripple outward. Happy members stay longer. Satisfied teams recommend the space to others. And most importantly, people feel empowered to do their best work without worrying about tech hiccups. In a world where digital performance is increasingly tied to professional performance, that matters.

Coworking is as much about culture and connection as it is about desks and chairs. UniFi’s infrastructure helps us deliver not just a physical space—but a frictionless digital experience that complements and enhances the human side of collaboration.

A Partnership That Reflects Our Values

At Jilani Place, we believe in empowering professionals through thoughtful design and future-ready infrastructure. UniFi's technology aligns with our mission by enhancing connectivity and providing the foundation for innovation, collaboration, and creativity.

As our community continues to grow, we’re proud to be recognized by UniFi and to stand as a case study in modern coworking innovation. Together, we are redefining what it means to work connected.

Partnerships like this one go beyond equipment and installation—they’re about shared vision. UniFi understands the value of digital-first experiences and builds the tools that make it possible. That shared commitment has enabled Jilani Place to remain not just relevant, but ahead of the curve.
