What do you think of when you hear the phrase “telecom service?”
If you’re like most business owners, you’ll likely think of mobile plans. However, you can’t survive on this alone. You’ll also require full enterprise mobile support, and this involves everything from ensuring flexible coverage across locations, to securing laptops and tablets, to handling billing headaches and user support.
A mobile plan from telecom service providers will not be sufficient, but our integrated managed mobile service (MMS) will be.
However, before we show you how our solution can benefit you, let’s go into a detailed managed mobility comparison of other providers.
Optus and Vodafone are two of the largest carriers in Australia. For the longest time, they’ve worked well for their users. However, to get more out of their services, you’ll have to stay within their ecosystem. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. However, problems will arise if your business spans multiple regions, teams, and needs.

What’s the takeaway?
It’s simple: VoicePlus has the carrier flexibility other telecom service providers lack.
There’s no doubt that you have options. With that said, VoicePlus stands out and can benefit your business in the following ways.
With Optus or Vodafone/TPG, support usually means calling a generic helpline — one that only helps with their network.
By contrast, to choose VoicePlus is to have a single point of contact for all carriers and devices. This means faster response times, better user experiences, and less internal IT burden for your business.
Managing billing across carriers can be a logistical mess as you navigate different formats, cycles, contacts, and portals. But VoicePlus simplifies that with a single billing platform that unifies all your costs, usage, and reporting — even if you’re using multiple networks.
There’s not a lot you can expect in the way of multi-device support with Optus and Vodafone. Both telecom service providers prioritise mobile devices, and that’s about it. However, VoicePlus is ideal for supporting multiple device types. Combined with Mobile Device Management (MDM), VoicePlus enforces your security policies across platforms and providers.
VoicePlus’s MMS may be ideal for you if the following is true of your business:
Telcos offer strong networks, but they’re not in the business of managing your mobility needs holistically. We are.
The team at VoicePlus can help you build the right mobility strategy, choose the best networks for your users, and stay secure and supported at every step.
