Widex Compass Cloud Gateway, developed by WSA (WS Audiology), is a background connectivity component that enables secure communication between Widex fitting software—such as COMPASS GPS—and WSA cloud services. It facilitates cloud-enabled features including clinician sign‑in, licensing and entitlement checks, remote care sessions, and retrieval of online content or updates supported by the host application.
Designed for clinical and enterprise environments, the Cloud Gateway runs as a lightweight Windows service with no standalone user interface. It establishes outbound, encrypted connections (HTTPS) to WSA services and can be configured to work through corporate firewalls and proxy servers. The component is typically installed and maintained alongside the primary Widex software, and it operates silently in the background to provide reliable, policy‑compliant access to cloud functionality.
By centralizing and securing cloud communications, Widex COMPASS Cloud Gateway helps clinics leverage remote support and other online capabilities while aligning with IT requirements for security, performance, and manageability.
Widex Compass Cloud Gateway is developed by WSA. The most popular versions of this product among our users are: 1.2, 1.4 and 1.5. The name of the program executable file is WindowsGateway.Application.Widex.exe.
