Aussie Broadband is a terrific internet provider, and that's the point. Business phone is a bolt-on cross-sell to its broadband base, locked to its NBN, on third-party Yealink handsets. Uniden Voice is a communications company first, where the phone is the product.
Hosted PBX is plan-bundled with third-party Yealink phones and tied to an Aussie Broadband connection: a cross-sell, not a core engineering investment. It even sold off its Fonebox contact-centre voice asset.
Uniden designs the handset, the apps, the platform and the AI, backed by 50+ years of communications engineering. Managed NBN is part of the service, not the whole company.
No Vocky-style AI voice agent. When the line's busy or the office is shut, the call is simply lost.
Resold Yealink handsets only. No purpose-designed desk phone built to match the platform like the Uniden EVOC2.
A web portal and mobile softphone, but no first-party desktop suite for Windows, macOS and Linux.
Keep the broadband if you love it, but give your phone system to a communications company with AI and its own hardware built in.
