Written by Evelyn Alas

Since its inception, the presence of the internet has accelerated exponentially in an irreversible and unstoppable way, confirming itself as a vital part of all economic development in El Salvador.

During the pandemic, the internet represented the only window to the world and gave rise to large investments to expand capacity and coverage to meet the new needs that arose.

The best example of this is the way in which companies and individuals adapted to the change: work at home and online classes saw an increase in demand for internet access, a situation that led to the growth of mobile data traffic.

Thus, Digicel, adapting to the change, ceased to be simply a telephony service operator, becoming the first digital operator in El Salvador offering the newest LTE 4.5G network, different products tailored to their needs and a nationwide deployment of fiber optics so that its customers, both individuals and the corporate sector can connect to an innovative service that raises their communications and productivity in a simple and cost-effective way.

As part of this large network deployment, Digicel Business is closely aligned to develop opportunities that can be implemented in the business model of companies, directly benefiting the operating costs of its customers, facilitating the management of internal systems.

This new portfolio of services helps capture business value by maximizing efficiencies and leveraging each of their assets.

"Our commitment is to make our customers have the service they deserve in the most accessible way, not only in terms of connectivity but also saving time and money. We are entering an era where connectivity is paramount in any business and we will continue to invest in the best technology and always in favor of our customers. By august 2022 we will have doubled the coverage of our 4.5G LTE network, as well as the fiber optic network, guaranteeing all our customers the most stable connection in the country, in addition to the added values that Digicel has to facilitate the digital life of our customers", said Marcelo Aleman, CEO of Digicel El Salvador.
