Not your usual
IT provider
The same job, done two ways. Here is how Afritech works, set against a typical IT services provider.
| Criteria | Typical provider | |
|---|---|---|
| Where your team sits | Kinshasa, in your time zone | A remote desk, tickets across time zones |
| Who is accountable | One team, end to end | Several vendors, and finger-pointing |
| Starting a project | A two-week discovery, fixed fee | Open-ended hourly consulting |
| When it breaks | A 24/7 operations centre, in your time zone | A ticket queue, often business hours only |
| Risk when things change | Phased cutovers, with a rollback plan for every wave | One big cutover, and hope |
| If you ever leave | Everything documented as code, and you take it with you | Proprietary tooling that is hard to leave |

Questions, answered
Straight answers about how we work, what we cover and how to get started.
Still have a question?
Talk to an engineerWhich services does Afritech offer?
We cover fourteen service areas in four pillars: infrastructure and security, cloud and managed services, payments and fintech, and software and platforms. Each pillar is explained above, with every service listed.
Can one team handle our network, cloud, payments and software?
Yes. One accountable team designs, deploys and supports your network, cloud, payments and software, so you deal with a single partner instead of several suppliers.
Do you offer 24/7 monitoring and support?
Yes. Our 24/7 Network Operations Center and Security Operations Center monitor your infrastructure around the clock, and we offer managed IT outsourcing with SLA-based support.
Can you help us meet ISO, GDPR or PCI DSS requirements?
Yes. We run IT policy and compliance audits and help align your systems with standards such as ISO and GDPR. We also provide PCI DSS-certified cloud hosting for payment workloads.
How do we get started?
Tell us what you run today and where it hurts. An engineer will review it with you and recommend where to start, from a quick assessment to a full design.
Ready for technology you can rely on?
Talk to an engineer about your network, security or payments project and get a clear plan, not a sales pitch.
