OTEL, one of South Africa’s fastest-growing telecoms brands, has positioned itself for stronger client service delivery by centralising operations within its new Gauteng corporate headquarters.
Located at Waterford Court in Lyttleton, Centurion, OTEL’s head office also houses its primary shareholder, MCD Group. OTEL employees previously located at its Boksburg office have now completed the move to the Centurion office.
“The main rationale for bringing everyone from shareholders to OTEL employees together in one custom-designed building was to create a stronger team in order to gear the company for better service delivery and growth,” explained OTEL CEO, Rad Jankovic.
“While OTEL’s VoIP voice and data solutions enable such modern phenomena as telecommuting, we really felt that having everyone in one location would spur the kind of creative thinking that has seen OTEL grow from a provider of VoIP solutions within a few East Rand office parks to a national provider of competitive voice and data solutions that easily rival the top telecoms incumbents,” added Mr Jankovic.
The new Centurion location is also within close proximity to the town’s Gautrain station which is especially convenient for OTEL clients requiring personal attention.
OTEL is a licensed business-to-business provider of VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) solutions that enable corporate voice and data applications such as high-speed broadband Internet, web-enabled office switchboards, Cloud-based back-up solutions, and voice calling applications that cost a fraction of what businesses would outlay to traditional telecoms providers. Its nationwide dedicated network and cutting-edge technology positions OTEL as one of South Africa’s leading wholesale telecoms providers.
Through a network of dealers, franchisees and technical teams that is now being expanded countrywide, OTEL typically installs last-mile connectivity in office parks, industrial estates and other locations especially favoured by the company’s favourite clients: start-ups, SMEs and other similarly-innovative firms making a positive different in the business landscape.
The company was launched almost a decade ago in Gauteng and has worked tirelessly to build its brand with OTEL executives serving in various capacities within such industry lobbying organisations as the Internet Service Providers’ Association of SA (ISPA) and the Wireless Application Providers’ Association of SA (WAPA).
