About
Innovative applications that run over wireless data networks are changing the face of business. Enterprises, governments and institutions are turning to solutions to increase efficiencies, gain productivity, and even generate new revenue streams by optimizing the output of remote assets and mobile resources.
As the original Machine-to-Machine network provider, SkyTel is uniquely positioned to help organizations collect and transport critical data from remote assets and mobile resources, then leverage that data as business intelligence to reduce costs and increase productivity.
But we are more than simply a network operator in the growing M2M space. SkyTel delivers comprehensive end-to-end solutions to the marketplace. Our experience and competencies across the M2M value chain, as well as our ownership of the only narrowband data-only networks nationwide, distinguish us from other providers in the industry.
As the leading provider of wireless messaging to the Fortune 1000, SkyTel is also committed to continuing to grow our paging business. Paging was the original M2M application – after all, that’s what pagers are…machines talking to machines through short bursts of data. During Hurricane Katrina and 9/11, our customers stayed connected, even when cellular channels were down and there was a 60% increase in network traffic.
Perhaps most significantly, we have Customer Service and Technical Support that is second to none in the industry. Our reps answer the phone and find solutions. They are specifically trained to provide assistance for both M2M and wireless messaging applications. SkyTel is very proud of the human and network assets we deliver to our customers every day.
SkyTel is headquartered in Herndon, VA with offices in New Jersey and Mississippi. Network operations are located in various locations nationally.
