Devoli announces cross-Tasman broadband play

Telco provider Devoli has announced its clients can now directly provision and manage internet and voice services in Australia and New Zealand.

“Devoli has alleviated the pain points for Trans-Tasman businesses needing unified internet and voice technology,” says Karl Rosnell, Devoli CEO.

Managed service providers, ISPs and corporates can set up their own voice and internet connectivity to multiple sites in multiple locations in both nations using the Vumeda customer experience platform.

Vumeda’s quoting tool shows the products and services available at an address, the price of those services, and allows an order to be placed and provisioned.

Devoli claims its offering makes it easier for service providers to extend their broadband reach into New Zealand.

“We’ve just implemented our first major trans-Tasman deployment,” said Rosnell. “Our client is a managed telecommunications, network, and security provider, and they’re now managing their internet connectivity across both countries.”

“Devoli’s automated approach has saved them significant time and cost that would have been incurred had the customer needed to approach multiple internet vendors in both countries.” 

The company’s connectivity extends through all New Zealand local fibre companies and other access network providers including fixed wireless services and the NBN.

Devoli’s New Zealand network provides voice and data services, with over 26 data centres connected by 100G and 400G backhaul systems. Its trans-Tasman network utilises multiple 100G connections over the Southern Cross, Hawaiki and TGA cable systems.

The company’s Vumeda platform enables customers to aggregate, integrate, bundle, and deliver telecommunications services – including white-labelled voice and broadband – to residential and business customers.

“We’ve helped a number of Australian businesses offer connectivity services and even become their own ISPs, and now we can help businesses with trans-Tasman operations find extreme efficiencies,” Rosnell said.  

The company pitches the Vumeda platform as a way for IT service providers, corporate customer or large retailers to simplify telco provisioning, self-servicing network, data, and voice services.

It has a customer success team in Australia and New Zealand.
