Zimbabwe VSAT Internet Packages Compared

VSAT is an important option for connecting to the internet for a lot of people and businesses. It is especially important for people and businesses that are in areas that don’t have fibre internet, phone lines for ADSL and not good mobile internet (3G and 4g LTE). In terms of what it is, it’s basically internet over satellite.

Such areas include mines, farms, and other institutions like schools and hospitals in rural areas. NGOs that operate in rural areas are known to use VSAT at lot. VSAT is also good as a backup option for those situations where the regular internet connection is down for one reason or the other.

The technology itself has been there in Zimbabwe for decades now and almost all the major internet service providers sell VSAT. Below is a quick summary of the packages that each of the major providers sell.
