Global communications provider SkyVision Global Networks has said the execution of first phase of its project with Burkina Faso’s premier banking institution the Bank of Africa is “successful”.
The project involved implementation of a full-scale communications solution through the SkyVision VPN service that currently connects Bank of Africa headquarters in Burkina Faso’s capital Ouagadougou to the bank’s operations nationwide.
Commenting on the issue, SkyVision chief Ori Watterman said the project is a critical win and milestone for SkyVision, adding that they “welcome the opportunity of a long term partnership with BOA and highly value our business relationship and look forward to continue growing its joint business and offering solutions to the entire Bank of Africa Group.”
SkyVision has centered on enhancing connectivity in rural Africa over the last one decade. It has established several hubs and PoPs continent-wide to deliver quality information and communications services.
In a statement, SkyVision indicated that the joint solution includes a Romantis UHP hub and SkyVision VPN, a VSAT-based communications solution that provides organizations with superior network performance and reliability.
The advanced technology that drives SkyVision VPN provides customers with enhanced flexibility, enabling reliable control and system management across immense remote areas, such as those in Burkina Faso, according to SkyVision.
SkyVision VPN is managed by SkyVision. It is currently regarded among Africa’s “solutions of choice,” delivering superior connectivity at a minimum cost.
