useful faq’s

why do you call yourself a next gen msp?

Traditionally ISP’s would have taken care of Internet, Telecoms companies would have dealt with phones and Managed Service Providers would have dealt with managing Servers, Desktops and Cloud solutions. This created a lot of frustration with clients as they would have to deal with more than one service provider. As we manage all services under one brand we feel we are the Next Generation of MSP to develop from MSP’s also managing their own ISP and VoIP networks.

why do you make use of other providers in order to deliver fibre services.

Back in the days Telkom owned all the copper (ADSL) in the country, and every client would have rented the ADSL lines directly with telkom making the support process more difficult for ISP to resolve, with ISP’s now having access to lease fibre directly there is no need for clients to engage with tier 1 fibre providers making the delivery of services easier for ISP and also the support.

can netlayer consolidate services?

Sure we can, besides for Fibre services, we also do VoIP, IT Support and Application Development, which allows us supply the full range of services to clients which ensures you only need to deal with one service provider a

I only have an adsl line, will voip work?

This is a topic which we feel strongly about, ADSL is old not reliable, meaning your phone call won’t be reliable, its also a connectivity medium that is being decommissioned by Telkom,

your an isp, what do you know about it support?

Netlayer started as an MSP (Managed IT Services Provider) and as time went by we identified the need for an MSP to also supply ISP services. We refer to ourselves as the next gen MSP as we feel the ISP realm will be including IT Support services into their service offerings and visa versa.

can I keep my landline number when moving to netlayer?

Yes you can, we are able to port all numbers accept 086 numbers.

what office365 licenses do I need in order to make use of Microsoft teams as my pabx

As far as licensing goes, all you need is to add Microsoft Phone System licenses as add-on licenses to your Office365 Business Basic, Standard, Premium, E1 or E3 licenses, E5 licenses includes this add-on already

why is it so expensive to develop a website or application?

Web and Application development is hard and time consuming.
