Joker relies on Office-IT for strategic IT advice and digital growth
For more than 40 years, Joker has been a trusted name in adventurous group travel and the Via Via Reiscafés. Just as they guide their travelers to new destinations, they are also leading their own organization towards a digital future.
Since 2019, they have relied on the expertise of Office-IT. We act as their strategic sparring partner and provide guidance on digitalization, hybrid cloud, and cybersecurity – always aligned with Joker’s ambitions and culture.
CFO Katleen Hofmans and IT-manager Yves Solignac share how this collaboration helps them make the right choices for their IT strategy and future plans.
Hybrid cloud and cybersecurity as a solid foundation
Together with their internal IT manager, Joker chose a hybrid IT environment: a mix of local infrastructure and cloud applications. This makes the organization scalable, cost-conscious, and always up to date.
In addition, major investments were made in cybersecurity. With new servers, firewalls, EDR protection, and strong cyber awareness among employees, the travel company is better protected against threats.
Office-IT supports them in making the right choices and is ready to step in as back-up during the absence of the internal IT manager.
Future-oriented with AI and strategic advice
Joker is looking ahead with a clear seven-year roadmap toward their 50th anniversary in 2031. Digitalization and the sustainable use of AI play a key role in this journey. Among other initiatives, a chatbot is being trained to further strengthen customer service and automate repetitive processes.
Office-IT acts as a strategic sparring partner in this trajectory: together we determine which IT solutions best fit Joker’s ambitions.
