Software
Development
SSi specializes in designing and adapting cutting-edge software for remote markets. Building our own software ensures we streamline the features we need and focus on efficiency of design to meet the needs and, as is often the case, data limitations in remote satellite served communities.
A prime example is our proprietary billing and management system developed to track and administer every aspect of internet and mobile user accounts. The system monitors and reports items such as detection of damaged hardware, usage tracking, network speed, user bandwidth limits, adjustable download speed settings per user, roaming, automated account suspensions and renewals.
