Business Phone System White Paper | Uniden Voice over Cloud

Five vendors built your phone system. That is the problem.

A business phone system usually involves a hardware vendor, a software provider, a PBX host, a telco and a technician. Six pages on what that costs you, and what changes when one Australian company owns the handset, the apps, the platform, the numbers, the internet and the AI.

The argument

The complex puzzle, and what it costs to keep solving it

This is the case the paper makes, in short. Read the six pages for the detail, the case study and the numbers.

The usual way

Five parties, one phone system

Getting a business phone system in place typically means coordinating at least five separate companies.

Hardware vendor Software provider PBX host Telco Technician
  • Compatibility problems and communication breakdowns between the parties.
  • Longer timelines, higher costs, and more ways for the build to fail.
  • When something breaks, working out whose fault it is takes longer than the fix.
  • Equipment, software licences, installation fees and maintenance, all billed separately.
The Uniden way

One company, end to end

Uniden designs the handsets, the apps and the cloud platform together, and supplies the numbers, the internet and the AI alongside them.

  • One supplier, one bill, one point of contact. No finger pointing, because there is nobody else to point at.
  • It configures itself. No VoIP or SIP settings to enter. Plug the handset in and it comes up on your account.
  • Australian end to end. Australian designed hardware, Australian hosted platform, Australian support and an Australian voiced AI.
  • Scales from three users to a thousand sites without changing platform.

    Why Uniden is doing this at all

    The short version of a fifty year history: the world's largest manufacturer of wireless communication products, the first cordless phone with voice scramble security, and the first to bring Voice over Cloud to the Australian business market.

    The hardware, the apps and the portal

    What is actually in the EVOC2 handset, what the desktop and mobile apps do, and what you can run yourself from the portal, from porting numbers to onboarding staff to live wallboards on a TV.

    Case study: 130 stores on one cloud

    The network underneath, and the continuity story

    Direct interconnects to the Australian fixed and mobile networks, fibre that peers with the big content providers, Australian datacentres, and what actually happens to your calls when a connection drops.

130 stores. One cloud. Zero missed orders.

Inspirations Paint was running multiple telcos, PBX vendors and nbn providers across 130 stores, losing orders to busy signals at peak and with no single view of what was happening. Here is where they landed.

The download

Take it away and read it properly

It is written to be handed to whoever signs off the decision, so it covers the commercial argument as well as the technical one.

  • The vendor complexity argument, with the costs it creates set out plainly.
  • A real customer at scale, with the problems they had and the numbers afterwards.
  • What is included as standard, so you can hold it against another provider's quote.
  • The network and continuity detail your IT person will ask about.

No form, no email address, no follow up call you did not ask for. The link opens the PDF. If you want to talk afterwards, that is your decision to make.

  • Prefer the short version? The feature list is the same information without the argument.
  • Want the technical manual? The knowledge base is public, and it is what our support team uses.
  • Want the price? The pricing pages are public too, with no quote request in the way.
  • Want to see it running? A demo takes about twenty minutes and uses your own numbers and hours.
Before you download

Questions about the paper itself

Do I have to give you my email address?

No. The button opens the PDF directly. We would rather you read it and come to us than trade a download for your contact details and a phone call you were not expecting.

Who is it written for?

The person who has to justify the decision. It covers the commercial side, which is what a business owner or an operations manager cares about, and the network and continuity side, which is what an IT manager will ask about. You can hand it to either without an explanation.

Is it a sales brochure or a white paper?

Honestly, it is both. Pages one to four make the case for a single vendor and set out what is included. Page five is a real customer at 130 sites with their actual problems and results. Page six is the network detail. It is our own document about our own product, so read it that way, and hold it up against a competitor's quote rather than taking it on trust.

How current is it?

It is the 2026 edition. The AI section in particular moves quickly, so if you are reading this a long way into the year, the feature list and the knowledge base are updated continuously and will be ahead of the PDF.

Can I share it with my team or my accountant?

Please do. That is what it is for. Send the file or send them this page, whichever is easier.

I want more detail than six pages.

Then skip the paper. The knowledge base has the full setup documentation, the developer API reference and the webhook guides, all public. For how routing works in practice, the call flows page walks through a worked example, including location based routing and AI agents.

What if I just want to talk to someone?

Call 1300 881 662, Monday to Friday between 9am and 5pm AEST, and you will get an Australian team. Or book a demo and we will show you the portal, the handset and the apps against your own situation.
