DIGICEL announced yesterday that it has taken a controlling stake in Netxar Technologies, the leading systems integrator in the Caribbean region.
A release said, effective immediately, the two companies will work together to achieve even greater business success and market share as the region’s newest Information and Communications Technology (ICT) powerhouse.
“With corporate and public sector customers looking for the best and most advanced ICT systems and processes, whilst also keeping a keen eye on cost control, the Digicel Netxar combination will see customers optimising their ICT infrastructure and saving money,” it said.
The release said Netxar has built a fantastic track record and won numerous regional and global awards and is also the proud holder of the Gold Certification, Master Unified Communication and Master Managed Service Partner.
Netxar said it is a member of Cisco’s elite one per cent partners out of 64,000 plus worldwide, which is vital in securing and serving top corporate and public sector customers.
Based in Puerto Rico, it has operations in the Dominican Republic, Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago.
Digicel, meanwhile, has been offering ICT solutions to businesses across the region since 2007 and said its promise of best network, best value and best service has seen Caribbean companies not only benefitting from greater efficiencies, through more integrated communications, but also being able to reduce their ICT spending by between 30 per cent and 40 per cent on average.
President and CEO of Netxar, Mr. Frank Santiago, was quoted as saying: “For years, corporate and public sector customers have been searching for a business partner who can deliver both world class telecommunication services and ICT solutions. Now, customers will benefit from technology solutions that leverage their IT framework as a competitive advantage, while reducing operational costs and increasing productivity.”
