More About SaskTel
SaskTel is a provincially owned telecommunications provider that delivers network, ICT, and managed services to customers across Saskatchewan, including enterprises, small and mid-sized businesses, and public-sector institutions.
For enterprise and institutional environments, SaskTel positions its portfolio around connectivity, data center, cloud, collaboration, and managed IT services that can be combined into end-to-end solutions. On the connectivity side, SaskTel offers business internet and wide area networking (WAN) services (networking), using fiber, Ethernet, and IP-based technologies to connect offices, remote sites, and data centers. These services are typically used to support branch connectivity, access to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, and secure links into data center and cloud environments.
In infrastructure and hosting, SaskTel provides data center, cloud, and colocation services (cloud infrastructure, data center services). These services usually run in SaskTel-operated facilities within Saskatchewan and are used by organizations that require regional hosting, data residency alignment with provincial requirements, or lower-latency access for local users. The offerings generally cover virtualized compute, storage, backup, and Disaster Recovery (DR) capabilities, relying on standard virtualization platforms and IP-based storage and network architectures commonly used in enterprise environments.
SaskTel also offers managed security and unified communications and collaboration (UC&C) services (security, UC&C). Security services typically include managed perimeter security, secure remote access based on Virtual Private Network (VPN) or similar protocols, and monitoring of network traffic and events. UC&C services are used to deliver voice, conferencing, messaging, and collaboration features over IP networks, integrating with existing PBX, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), and Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) environments. These services are positioned for organizations that want voice and collaboration services hosted or managed by SaskTel rather than operated entirely on-premises (on-prem).
On top of network and infrastructure services, SaskTel provides managed IT and professional services (managed services, IT services). These offerings include planning, design, deployment, and ongoing management of network, security, and cloud environments. Enterprise and public-sector customers use these services to align SaskTel connectivity and hosting with their broader IT strategies, including hybrid architectures that combine on-prem infrastructure with SaskTel-hosted and public cloud resources.
Within a marketplace or directory taxonomy, SaskTel aligns to several categories: telecommunications carrier and Internet Service Providers (ISP) (connectivity, internet access, WAN), data center and cloud infrastructure provider (hosting, colocation, IaaS), security services provider (managed security, secure access), and UC&C provider (IP voice, collaboration). Its portfolio is typically evaluated alongside other regional and national telecom and ICT providers that combine network services with cloud, collaboration, and managed IT capabilities for enterprise and institutional customers.
