From the seas to the deserts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Inmarsat?

From GMDSS system, mandatory safety terminals to the portable systems, Inmarsat sets the standard. I worked 25 years with Inmarsat. I had many situations where I could rely only on that terminal, even outside the official footprint. I always considered Inmarsat as the reference point in order to guarantee the most reliable communication system to reach voice terminals, polling systems, server and crucial backups, from the deserts to the oceans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inmarsat?

Really difficult to say. At the beginning Inmarsat had very high traffic costs. Thanks to the optimization the rate have been aligned with the market Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Inmarsat solving and how is that benefiting you?

Impossible to provide just one answer. I remember at the beginning of my career the fantastic standard A, using a complex asynchronous modems on the vessels or the "portable" systems, for military applications and for the press agencies as the first milestone in the modern communication, then the standard M and MiniM, simple and rock solid user friendly terminals, widely used in the embassies, military applications, oil rigs and press users, as well as leisure vessel; Inmarsat has always provided the right solution ahead of the times. impossible not to mention standards now supplanted such as the high-speed "B" that made possible the first 64 or 128 Kbps video transmission that I have witnessed on many oil platforms, for telemedicine applications and other innovative uses up to modern Vsat systems integrated that have engineered a technology of broadcast origin and made it available to the most various types of users Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
