In an Interview with Riaan Roode, founder, and MD of WaRCoM Business Solutions, we discussed their recent Wi-Fi rollout at a rural school in Kwa-Zulu Natal. Read more below for the details on the solution and find out how it reduced callouts and transformed the Wi-Fi experience at the school.

Q: “Tell us more about WaRCoM Business Solutions?”

A: “WaRCoM Business Solutions was established in Amanzimtoti in 2003 with the focus of the business being IT support. Our first customer was a renowned Finance Group and we initially provided support to their branches in the KZN region. This eventually led to us securing the contract to provide the IT support for the entire group nationally, and subsequently internationally.

We established a national footprint of support structures which has since grown to where we now can provide support to businesses in all nine provinces nationally, with immediate support in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban, branching out to areas like East London, Port Elizabeth, Louis Trichardt, Welkom, and Newcastle.  Internationally we can offer support services in Tanzania, Malawi, Kenya, Uganda, Gaborone, and Namibia through our partners or a network of 3rd party associates.”

Q: “A national and international footprint is quite impressive. What are the services that you offer?”
