Thirty-three years, and print is the centre of gravity
Founded in 1992 and still trading from the same corner of Cape Town, CBA Group has outlasted most of its contemporaries. Read the service list honestly though: printing comes first and comes with four named vendor relationships, while telephony is described in a single line without a platform. That shapes the fit. If you are replacing copiers and a phone system in the same refresh, one supplier with three decades of local service history is a sensible call. If telephony alone is the requirement, and especially if you need call recording, queueing or detailed reporting, ask precisely what is being proposed and compare it against a dedicated voice provider. Thirty reviews at 4.3 across a business this old is a modest public record; read what reviewers actually praise. Compare alternatives in the phone system directory.
Who CBA Group is a fit for

What does CBA stand for?
Corporate Business Automation, which is the name on the company’s Google Business Profile. CBA Group and Corporate Business Automation are the same business.
How long has CBA Group been trading?
The company states it was founded in 1992, which is over thirty years.
Which phone system does CBA supply?
The site names PABX, hosted telecoms and VoIP without identifying a platform. Ask which system is proposed, whether it is hosted or on-premise, and what happens to your numbers if you change supplier.
Where are the branches?
The head office is at 83 De Waal Road, Southfield, Diep River, Cape Town, with a second branch in Johannesburg. Ask which one would service your account.
How much does a hosted PABX through CBA Group cost?
CBA Group does not publish a rate card. Ask for the equipment cost, the monthly charge and per-minute call rates as separate figures, particularly if printing or CCTV is quoted in the same document. For reference, the 11 verified Cloud PBX providers on WhichVoIP that do publish prices charge R49–R79 per extension per month, with call rates and handsets on top, so expect a quote in that band unless the bundle includes hardware. Compare published prices or get up to 3 quotes.
Is CBA mainly a print company?
Printing leads the service list and carries four named vendor relationships, while telephony is described more briefly. If phones are your only requirement, compare a dedicated voice provider as well.
