If you came here for phones, you want FirstNet
This listing exists because people search the First Technology name, and the honest answer has changed. The group’s current site publishes no telephony product at all — the service list runs from data centre and cloud through cyber security and managed services to Microsoft work, with nothing on voice. That does not mean the group has left telecoms. Its voice business is sold under the FirstNet brand, which runs a Yeastar cloud PBX with unified communications, call recording and cost management, and is listed separately in this directory. So if you arrived looking for a phone system, FirstNet is the right door. If you are buying cloud, security or managed IT at enterprise scale, this is a substantial integrator with Microsoft Azure Expert MSP status. One practical oddity: the site shows a UK phone number while the Midrand head office has a South African one. Compare telephony providers in the cloud PBX directory.
Who First Technology Group is a fit for
- Enterprises buying cloud, data centre or cyber security at scale
- Businesses wanting a Microsoft Azure Expert MSP partner
- Companies whose telephony requirement should go to FirstNet instead

Does First Technology Group sell phone systems?
Not under this brand. The current site publishes no VoIP, PBX or telephony product. The group’s voice offering is sold under the FirstNet brand, which runs a Yeastar cloud PBX and is listed separately in this directory.
What is the relationship with FirstNet?
FirstNet states on its own site that it is part of the First Technology Group. FirstNet carries the voice, connectivity and security products; First Technology Group publishes the integration, cloud and managed services side.
Why is there a UK phone number on the site?
The site displays a +44 number alongside a South African email address, reflecting the group’s EMEA positioning. The Google profile lists a South African number for the Midrand head office. Confirm which channel reaches the local team before relying on either.
Where is the South African head office?
The site publishes no address. The company’s Google profile places it at 26 Augrabies Road, Vorna Valley, Midrand, in Waterfall Park.
What Microsoft accreditation does it hold?
The site states Microsoft Azure Expert MSP with advanced specialisations. Azure Expert MSP is an audited Microsoft status rather than a self-declared tier, which is a meaningful credential for cloud work.
Why is the Google rating 3.8?
Eighty-seven reviewers give that score, with recurring themes around refunds and communication. WhichVoIP does not remove genuine negative reviews. Read a recent spread yourself, and note that feedback on a large integrator often reflects one division rather than the whole group.
