Thirty-one years on one stretch of coast
Buying a phone system from a national brand means the installer arrives from somewhere else, if at all. Pinnacle Systems has worked the same Garden Route corridor since 1994, and for a Knysna guesthouse or an Oudtshoorn manufacturer that proximity is the whole argument: someone can be on site the same day, and they have probably seen your building before. The product mix reflects a regional supplier rather than a voice specialist, with switchboards and IP phones sitting next to copiers, cameras and intercoms. That suits a business that wants one number to call when anything in the building stops working, and it suits a large multi-site contact centre less well. Ask which platform is being proposed and whether the licence would be registered in your name. Other options sit in the cloud PBX directory.
Who Pinnacle Systems is a fit for
- Garden Route businesses that want an installer who can attend on site
- Premises needing intercoms or paging as well as desk phones
- Companies consolidating phones, printing and CCTV with one local supplier

How long has Pinnacle Systems been trading?
Since 1994. The company describes itself as technology leaders since 1994 and displays a badge marking 31 years, which makes it one of the longest-established suppliers in this directory.
Which towns does Pinnacle Systems cover?
The published footprint runs from Plettenberg Bay to Cape Town and inland as far as Beaufort West, with George, Knysna, Oudtshoorn, Mossel Bay and Plettenberg Bay named specifically. Confirm travel costs for sites at the edges of that range.
Do they still sell traditional PABX switchboards?
Yes. PBX and PABX switchboards are listed alongside VoIP and IP phones, which means a staged migration is possible rather than an immediate replacement of a working system. Have the make and model of your current switchboard ready.
What does a phone system cost?
No pricing is published. Ask for the once-off equipment and installation cost separately from the monthly charge, and get per-minute call rates in writing, especially if printing or CCTV is quoted in the same document.
Can Pinnacle Systems handle intercoms and gate communication?
Yes. Intercoms, pagers and call systems are listed as a distinct service line alongside the telephony, which is useful for a school, estate or factory where the phone system and the site communication overlap.
Is Pinnacle Systems licensed by ICASA?
No licence reference is published. For a phone-system integrator the relevant ECS licence normally sits with the SIP trunk provider rather than the installer. Ask who supplies the trunks and request the licence position in writing if you need it recorded.
