A hosting company that sells a real phone system
Netwide Telecom comes at business voice from the infrastructure side rather than the telecoms-reseller side, and that shapes what you get. The phone system is Yeastar Cloud PBX, a named platform with a published price of R69 per extension and no contract, sitting next to hosting, virtual servers and domains on the same account. For a small business that already buys its hosting and domain here, adding extensions is a short conversation rather than a new supplier relationship. Two things deserve a direct question. The company publishes no street address since the Sandton office closed, so establish how support reaches you and whether anyone comes on site. And the R69 covers the extension, not the calls, so ask for per-minute rates and number porting costs before comparing it against a bundled quote. More options sit in the cloud PBX directory.
Who Netwide Telecom is a fit for
- Businesses already buying hosting or domains who want extensions on the same account
- Small teams wanting a named platform at a published per-extension price
- Companies that would rather avoid a multi-year phone contract

Is Netwide Telecom the same company as Netwide Internet?
Yes. WhichVoIP previously listed the business as Netwide Internet. It trades as Netwide Telecom PTY LTD on the same netwide.co.za domain, so older invoices and quotes carrying the previous name refer to this company.
What does the cloud PBX cost?
Extensions are published at R69 per extension per month with no contract. That figure covers the extension itself, so ask separately for per-minute call rates, number porting costs and any handset price before comparing it with a bundled quote from another provider.
Which phone system platform does Netwide use?
Yeastar Cloud PBX. Netwide is an accredited and certified Yeastar partner. The platform carries call forwarding, voicemail to email, call analytics, auto-attendant and call recording, and a live call can be moved between desktop, mobile and an IP phone without dropping it. A demo PBX is available before you commit.
Does Netwide still sell fibre or wireless internet?
Not as published products. The current site sells cloud PBX, hosting, virtual servers, storage and domains, and its general description mentions internet, security, email, support and cabling services without listing fibre or wireless packages. If you need a connectivity line, confirm what is on offer rather than assuming.
Where is Netwide Telecom based?
No street address is published. The Sandton office has closed and the contact page now carries a form only. Services are delivered over the internet, so this does not affect the product, but ask where your account is serviced from if you expect anyone on site.
Is Netwide Telecom licensed by ICASA?
The company states it is an ICASA-licensed I-ECNS provider, which is an individual licence to build and operate an electronic communications network. No reference number is published, so request it in writing if your procurement process records licence numbers.
