The competition among Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in South Africa has increased in the past few months, due to an increase in demand for home fibre services which has led to a reduction in prices across the board.
In South Africa, there are a total of 35 fibre network operators with the largest operators being Openserve and Vumatel, especially in residential areas.
We have taken time to break down prices of the top 8 ISPs in South Africa served under the Openserve and Vumatel fibre networks. The tables below highlight the speeds under three categories; 100Mbps, 50/40Mbps and 20Mbps to get a clear picture of what each ISP has to offer.
