Digerati Launches Mobile Business Continuity Solution

Announces Partnership with Otarris to Provide Secure Wireless Broadband


SAN ANTONIO, Sept. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Digerati Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: DTGI) ("Digerati" or the "Company") announced today it has launched a mobile ‘business continuity’ solution in partnership with Otarris, a division of Kajeet Inc., for addressing the increasing demand for disaster recovery networks in the enterprise marketplace.

With nearly every business process today depending on a digital infrastructure, Digerati is addressing the increasing need for its customers to deploy a redundant and diverse bandwidth solution for ‘business continuity’ during primary network outages, including those caused by natural or human-induced disasters. Digerati will offer its wireless solution through its operating subsidiaries, Synergy Telecom (“Synergy”), a leading provider of cloud communication services in Texas and T3 Communications, Inc. (“T3”), a leading provider of cloud communications and broadband solutions in Florida. Although it will be marketed primarily as a back-up solution, Digerati will sell its wireless service as a primary network to customers with limited access to a reliable broadband network.

Digerati’s affordable, secure, and reliable solution integrates with a customer’s existing broadband network for seamless and immediate recovery to the mobile data network during an outage of the primary network utilized by the customer. The Company’s 4G LTE wireless connectivity solution, through its partnership with Otarris, will provide for real-time usage reporting and an analytics dashboard, highlighting how much data is consumed by devices on its customers’ network. Digerati will have access to Otarris’ broad set of pre-configured, patented, usage policies allowing customers to better manage their bandwidth during a service disruption. In addition, the Otarris Sentinel® platform has a powerful collection of advanced malware defense tools to correlate threat indicators for stopping known, unknown and evasive malware threats. 

Arthur L. Smith, CEO of Digerati, commented, "This is an ideal product for our customers in Florida faced with the seasonal threat of hurricanes, and those in Texas who have made ‘business continuity’ a priority.  We have implemented sales initiatives to cross-sell this solution to existing customers and to sell it as an add-on to our cloud PBX and network product portfolio. In addition to addressing a key and critical customer need, we anticipate this will increase our average revenue per customer (ARPU) which is an important operating metric for the Company.”

Kajeet CEO and Founder, Daniel Neal, said, “As a wireless connectivity solution provider for nearly fifteen years, we understand how important cost-effective, secure broadband access is to businesses of every type, and that outages equal lost revenue, and lost productivity.  The Otarris solution is cloud-based enabling us to support rapid partner setup, and our long-standing carrier relationships guarantee our partners access to competitive broadband access rates on all of the major carriers. We also have a world-class support team of wireless experts ready to assist our partners as they prepare for launch. Our end-to-end solution, and support, make Otarris unique in the market.”
