Whats the most important thing you're working on right now and how are you making it happen?
 
Would networking Afrihost be a good idea.
Sprint and IT&T catapulted their growth exponentially.
The network bases are phenomenally large.
An exceptional market to tap into.
 
Will Afrihost invest in rolling FTTH out to more areas or will it always only be the selected few who get this privilege?
 
What do you feel was the biggest mistake / regret you have made with regards to Afrihost?
 
What ADSL, wireless broadband, mobile broadband, WIFI or data devices do you use around the house or during travelling? Show us your tech!
 
Can you support a national corporate environment needs regarding APN access from devices(Handheld Scanners) to a desired server? We have currently 300 scanners that work on a private Mtn APN and I am looking for a better deal, please advise if you can meet this and possibly email me some details to discuss forward .. [email protected]
 
If you could ask yourself any question that you would like the rest of the world to know about yourself, what would it be?
 
What's your feeling about OTT services such as WhatsApp, and who do you support in the "battle"?
 
Can you describe your first sale and/or customer? I think it would be amazing for us to learn how you got to where you are as opposed to only looking to the future. Our past shapes us.
 
Not a question to Gian, as im happy since signing up, but more just a compliment. But thank you to Gian and the AH team for making my journey with them a comfortable one. I know there were and are still many who have issues, but personally from support to the network, its been awesome from a personal point of view. I hope Afrihost goes from strength to strength and wish them everything of the best.

I suppose if there was one question I would ask Gian, its how he handles the daily pressures of running an ISP, that has transitioned from struggling to find their feet, with many challenges, to where they are today?

Thank you sir

What is your single biggest success as CEO of Afrihost? What are you the proudest of?
 
With eSports now showing on DSTV`s Supersport ,we can safely assume that the digital age is in full swing with gaming finally being recognized as a sport locally .
Does Afrihost plan on getting involved with the local eSports *through partnering , sponsorship or hosting ? ( *Applies to events and teams / individuals )
 
Hi Gian,
I'm a very happy Afihost customer - so thanks for that.
Will Afrihost offer fibre packages for when fibre gets rolled out in my neighbourhood?
 
Will you ever compete with Vodacom with prepaid call rates? (I am currently using a dual-sim phone with VC (voice) and Afrihost (data) sims. Since your call rates are the same as VC's (79c/min) there is no incentive to port.
 
Remember how Afrihost broke new ground a few years ago, shaking up the market completely. What's the next big thing we can expect from Afrihost that will (perhaps) shake up the market again?
 
So first bit of a backstory. I play league. I am with telkom and we get 250-280ms. I got an afrihost account and now my ms is 200. So the question is, what are you guys doing better?
