Overview
Smartcom Business Communications sells telecommunications to Australian businesses, with offices listed in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide. Its range includes cloud hosted PBX phone systems, a cloud call centre platform, 1300 and 1800 numbers, Microsoft Teams and Webex calling, and business nbn plans.
Businesses review their phone provider for plenty of ordinary reasons: a contract coming to an end, an office move, a growing team, or wanting internet and phones from one carrier on one bill. If your phone system and inbound numbers are central to how customers reach you, it makes sense to compare your options before you renew.
Summit Internet has been connecting Australian businesses for 26 years. We offer a hosted PBX with every feature included, SIP trunks for existing phone systems, Microsoft Teams Calling and 1300 and 1800 numbers, alongside business nbn on our own network.
Summit Internet is an independent carrier and is not affiliated with Smartcom Business Communications.
How Summit Helps
-
A cloud phone system with every feature included
Summit's Hosted PBX starts from $10 per user per month, with auto attendant and IVR, ring groups, call queues, voicemail to email and call recording all included. There are no feature tiers to work through.
-
Call queues and ring groups for busy inbound lines
If your team takes a high volume of customer calls, Hosted PBX call queues and ring groups route callers to the right people. Call recording is included for training and quality review.
-
Keep your 13, 1300 and 1800 numbers working
We port existing inbound numbers and provide new 1300 and 1800 numbers, so customers keep calling the number they already know. On-hold messaging and fax to email are available too.
-
SIP trunks for the phone system you already own
If you have an on-premise PBX, Summit SIP trunks start from 2 channels and scale up or down as your call volumes change.
-
Microsoft Teams Calling
Prefer to make and take calls in Teams? Summit connects Teams to the phone network through Direct Routing. You keep your existing Microsoft licences, as Summit does not resell them.
-
Phones and internet from one carrier
When your internet is also Summit's, voice traffic is prioritised on the connection. Business nbn comes with a static IP included, with 4G Backup available for automatic failover.
-
Mobile apps and preconfigured handsets
Hosted PBX includes mobile and desktop apps so staff can work from anywhere. Handsets can be preconfigured and shipped, ready to plug in.

We recommend Hosted PBX, SIP trunks or Teams Calling to suit how your business works, plus internet if you want it on the same bill.
- 3 Set up and test
Set up and test
We build your call flows, queues and voicemail, and preconfigure and ship handsets where needed, before any numbers move.
- 4 Port your numbers
Port your numbers
We lodge the port of your existing numbers. Keep your current service active until the port completes, because only active numbers can be ported. The ACMA says single local numbers generally port in 8 to 15 days, and multi-number ports can take up to 30 days.
- 5 Cancel the old service

Once your numbers are live with Summit, you can arrange to close your previous account.

We recently moved our dental practice over to Summit for phone services, and the experience has been excellent from start to finish. The team has been responsive, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire setup process. The transition was smooth, any issues were addressed promptly, and communication was always clear and efficient. Reliable phones and internet are essential for a busy practice like ours, and Summit has delivered exactly that. A special thank you to Michael for his patience and ongoing assistance during the transition. Highly recommend Summit to any business looking for reliable service and great customer support.Read more

As a reseller, we primarily work with Summit’s 4G services and have been very impressed. The plans are affordable, flexible, and well suited to our customers—especially for internet failover solutions. The sales and support teams are responsive and genuinely helpful, which is why we’re proud to partner with Summit Internet. We happily recommend them.Read more

After working with another ISP for several months to deliver a critical internet service for a major international sporting event, we were ultimately advised that the required upgrade was unlikely to be completed prior to event week. This left us facing a significant risk to service delivery. After exhausting all other options (and a few sleepless nights) we came across Summit Internet. From the initial conversation, Allan immediately understood the severity of the situation and quickly engaged his technical delivery team. Michael “Radar” was on site within days to assess and finalise a solution. Despite challenging conditions, including large trees and other obstructions, he worked tirelessly to design and implement an alternative approach. Leveraging an adjacent building, a temporary NBN connection, and a wireless link into the comms room, the solution was delivered within 24 hours of the initial site visit. Not only was the outcome faster than expected, but it was also more cost effective and delivered higher speeds than originally promised by the previous ISP. Over the course of the event, the service handled terabytes of data and supported hundreds of concurrent users without a single speed or performance issue. I cannot thank Summit Internet, particularly Allan and Radar enough for their exceptional service, technical expertise, and commitment to delivering under pressure. Highly recommended.Read more

Summit internet recently set my small business up with a local land line number and a soft phone that runs off an app on my mobile - getting my personal phone number off the internet and being able to distinguish between business and personal calls is a game changer. Whole process took less than a week, and is super cost effective. Highly recommend.Read more
