Digitally Transforming Remote Locations

Serengeti Balloon Safaris have enjoyed a consistent growth in recent years, mirroring the increasing demand from tourism in the region. Ensuring that the systems supporting this growth were as robust and stable as their flight operations, finding a sophisticated IT provider who could support the team remotely and introduce leading collaboration tools was paramount.

Serengeti Balloon Safaris have multiple operating locations. Including an administration base, operations centre and mobile bases for flight locations across the Serengeti. The need for secure, accessible information both online and offline was key to their continued operational success.

Vissensa introduced Microsoft 365. This game changing suite of collaborative applications introduced reliability, increased productivity and mobile accessibility to the business.
