Infrastructure & Connectivity in the Philippines

Why Infrastructure Matters When Building an Offshore Team 

When choosing an offshore partner, the quality of infrastructure is one of the most important factors to evaluate. Reliable internet, consistent power supply, secure networks, and enterprise-level facilities determine whether your offshore team can perform at the standard your business requires. Even the best talent can struggle if the foundation supporting their work is unstable.

At ZigZag, we invest heavily in infrastructure to provide a seamless experience for our clients and their teams. Our office in Metro-Manila is equipped with multiple redundant internet service providers, enterprise-grade routers, bandwidth load balancing, and automatic failover. This ensures high uptime and stable connectivity, even during periods of network congestion or local disruptions.

Power interruptions are a reality in many parts of the Philippines, but our facilities are protected with uninterrupted backup power systems that can maintain operations for several days. This means your team continues working smoothly with minimal disruption, a critical advantage for global businesses that operate across multiple time zones.

Security is another major factor. Our workspace is ISO 27001 certified and PEZA registered, ensuring a secure environment for sensitive data, controlled access, and fully compliant operations. For companies that require strict cybersecurity standards, this level of infrastructure is essential. You are not just renting a desk,  you are connecting your business to a highly secure operational ecosystem.

Remote work is also an option, and ZigZag supports remote teams through cybersecurity assessments, risk evaluations, secure device configurations, and ongoing monitoring. Whether your staff works onsite or from home, we make the experience safe, reliable, and aligned with your data protection requirements.

To help companies evaluate whether their offshore or remote operations are protected, here is a simple Remote Team Risk Assessment Checklist:

Quick Remote Team Risk Assessment Checklist

Internet Reliability: Does the team have access to at least two ISP options, or a backup connection in case one fails?

Power Stability: Is there access to backup power or UPS systems to prevent outages?

Cybersecurity Standards: Are devices protected with endpoint security, MFA, and regular updates?

Data Handling: Are there clear rules for storing, transferring, and accessing sensitive information?

Device Control: Are laptops and equipment managed centrally, with the ability to lock or secure them remotely?

Work Environment: Is the workspace free from interruptions, noise, or security risks (shared computers, public Wi-Fi)?

Monitoring & Support: Is there an IT team available to troubleshoot, monitor, and secure systems in real time?

Compliance: Are remote setups reviewed regularly to ensure alignment with company policies and industry regulations?

These are the same areas ZigZag evaluates and manages for every team we support. When you partner with us, you get more than an offshore team, you get enterprise-grade infrastructure, proactive cybersecurity oversight, and a local partner who ensures continuity, compliance, and peace of mind.

Infrastructure is the backbone of successful offshoring. When you choose ZigZag, you connect your business to a workspace and IT environment designed for uninterrupted productivity, long-term stability, and secure global operations.
