An IT company that works like your own IT department

Who we are

HubNet (Hub Networks Ltd) is an IT company based in Dar es Salaam. We started in 2014 with internet and tech support for small offices. Today we look after IT for businesses and institutions across Tanzania: managed support, network security, infrastructure, cloud, automation and training.

We like technology, but we like solving real business problems more. Our job is to make IT boring for our clients: it should just work, so they can get on with their own work.

Your IT department, not a third party

Outsourcing should not feel like calling a stranger. We take time to understand each client's business, people and priorities, and then look after their IT the way a good in-house team would. Many of our clients have been with us for years.

How we work

• Plain advice. We explain things in simple words and tell you when you do not need to spend money.
• Fix the cause. We do not just restart things and leave. We find out why it broke.
• Write it down. Passwords, settings and changes are documented and handed over to you.
• Honest pricing. You get the price before we start. No surprise invoices.
