TRUENAV’s approach mirrors ours in terms of transparency, providing the right solution, and delivering. Their service levels are of the highest standard which ensures our customers remain happy and satisfied after the initial project is complete. It’s imperative that our customers have 24/7 support, and we are grateful that uThetha has this as part of their brand promise that they provide this to all maintenance customers.

General Manager, Toshiba Western Cape
We particularly liked TRUENAV’s consultative and transparent approach. Their system has provided significant cost savings due to no monthly costs for hosting the PBX along with the removal of our fixed lines. This cost-effectiveness combined with free inter-branch calls, barring of extensions and built in telephone management software, made the decision to deploy the uVoice Free Business PBX an easy choice
