For those who could use a quick ichthyology refresher (that’s the study of fish), a Pilotfish is a small pelagic species found in warm waters—like those off Durban. Recognizable by its bluish hue and bold black stripes, it swims alongside larger sea creatures in a mutually beneficial, symbiotic relationship.
By your side, since 2001
Since our inception in 2001, we’ve been a leading software solutions provider based in Durban, South Africa. Our decision in 2014 to focus on Microsoft SharePoint has propelled us into our third decade of delivering innovative and result-oriented products.
At Pilotfish, we believe in the power of collaboration and open dialogue.
This ethos is reflected in our project management, client relationships, and the high-quality work we deliver. Our teams are encouraged to voice their opinions and work closely with clients to deliver relevant, effective, and technologically advanced digital solutions.
We understand that our success is tied to our clients’ success. That’s why we aim to turn initial interactions into lasting partnerships. Like the pilotfish, we swim alongside our clients, offering comprehensive services and fostering symbiotic relationships.

In 2022, we joined forces with Open Box Software, a global leader in delivering software and services to the Real Estate industry. Under the continued leadership of Tawanda Vakisai and Lynda Hunter, we now benefit from the expertise of a diverse and experienced team spread across Cape Town, New York, and London. This merger has broadened our client base and project scope, benefiting both our team and clients. It also allows us to enrich Open Box Software’s service portfolio with our SharePoint expertise, enhancing their ability to deliver comprehensive, cutting-edge solutions.
