They set out to provide the latest in high-speed, uncapped and unshaped Internet technology – not only at an affordable rate but backed up with the coolest customer service by the coolest teams, countrywid­e.

Starting out with just four cool peeps in a small office in Johannesbu­rg, Cool Ideas has expanded to a team of nearly 50, and recently moved into bigger offices in Rosebank, Johannesbu­rg. Not resting on their laurels, their technology and support is now also available in Cape Town and KwaZulu-Natal too.

Cool Ideas is one of the few ISPs that offers services on almost any open access network available nationally.They joined forces with over 16 big operators – including Vumatel, Dark Fibre Africa and OpenServe – to supply the first roll-out of FTTH technology to various suburbs, offering innovative, world-class connectivi­ty and support.

MyBroadban­d recognised Cool Ideas in their third quarter Users Survey of 2017 as the top-rated ISP in South Africa – based on affordabil­ity, network quality, billing and support of their ADSL, VDSL, fibre, and mobile ISP. They were also one of four ISPs in the running for ISP of the year in 2017 – how cool is that?

Cool Ideas also tops the data throughput on Steam (a gaming platform) in South Africa. This makes their network super-cool and reliable for gamers.

THE COOLEST OF COOL OFFERS

Cool Ideas focusses on what they do best and that’s providing FTTH and Fibre-to-Business high-speed internet. With everything moving to the cloud, digital television and telephone services using fibre-optic cables delivering true highspeed broadband services (up to 1Gbps or gigabit per second) is increasing­ly becoming a reality.This is around 10 to 200 times faster than DSL broadband services.

VoIP services are phones that run on your fibre to replace your analogue landline phones. They run directly on your internet line, so there is no need for additional telephone lines. The technology used in VoIP dedicates a distinct voice channel to each individual conversati­on that is underway.VoIP has more affordable rates and is the future of telecommun­ications.

Cool Ideas also gives you the fastest ISPs for Netflix in SA (polled by Netflix), so you can binge watch as much as your heart desires!
