Telephone Equipment for Evaluators

From time-to-time my consultancy conducts telephonic surveys and teleconferences as part of our normal evaluation work. I have been extremely impressed with the two South African companies that we bought our equipment from, and I want to share their contact details with you.




To give you an indication of why I was impressed - Within five minutes of contacting Phonatics about headsets, I had a quote, and it was delivered on the same day I paid for the equipment.

After losing our conference phone's manual, we emailed the general info@ email address on the Konftel website - 10 minutes later we received an emailed manual and someone called us to ensure that we got what we were looking for.
