Pear Australia Australia's Most Caring Telco
30-day test drive · Zero downtime

Test drive your phone system
before you port.

We build the real Hosted-X system, put handsets on the desk, and run it beside your current phones. You take real calls for up to 30 days. If it is not right, we take it away and you owe nothing. Numbers move only when you say so.

Month-to-month · 90-day Love Us or Leave Us · Support in Australia

The trial, in plain terms

What the 30 days are —
and what they are not.

What you get

  • Hosted-X built to your call flow
  • Handsets programmed and on the desk
  • Your old system still live the whole time
  • Australian support for the 30 days
  • Aria modules switched on only if you ask

During the trial you are not billed for Hosted-X. If you keep it, month-to-month rates start after you port.

What you don't get — yet

  • Your numbers ported before you say go
  • A bill if you walk away
  • A 24–36 month contract
  • A slideshow instead of the live system
How it runs

Five steps.
No downtime, no surprises.

01

Onboarding

We sit down and map how calls actually work — main number, queues, after-hours, who takes what.

02

Build in parallel

Hosted-X is built and handsets are programmed while your current system keeps running. Nothing is switched off.

03

30-day test drive

You take real calls on the new system for up to 30 days, handsets included. If it is not right, we take it away at no charge.

04

Port at a quiet time

Only after you are happy, we port your numbers — an ACMA-regulated process, included. Go-live is a non-event.

05

Tune as the weeks go

Queues, messages and hours are adjusted live once the office settles in — change them yourself from the portal in minutes, or ask us. No fees, no waiting.

Frequently asked questions.

What is the Pear test drive?
We build your real Hosted-X cloud PBX to your call flow, put programmed handsets on the desk, and run it beside your current phones for up to 30 days. You take real calls on it. It is the live system, not a demonstration — a demonstration is not a test drive.
What does the 30 days cost if we say no?
Nothing. If the system is not right for you at the end of the test drive, we take it away and you owe nothing for the trial. Your numbers were never ported, so your existing phones keep running as they always did.
Do our numbers move during the test drive?
No. Your numbers stay on your current phones the whole time — the test drive runs in parallel. We only port your numbers after you are happy and tell us to go, at a quiet time you choose. Porting is an ACMA-regulated process we handle at no extra cost.
Whose handsets are they?
We supply and program the handsets for the trial. If you go ahead you can buy them, rent them, or reuse compatible phones you already have — see the pricing; if you walk away, they go back with the rest of the trial system.
Can we try Aria as well?
Yes. Aria's modules — voicemail, queue answering and call notes — can be switched on during the trial if you ask for them, so you hear how she handles overflow and after-hours before you commit. Aria pricing is separate.
What happens at day 30 if we want to keep it?
We port your numbers at a quiet time you choose and go live — a non-event, because the system is already built and running. From there it is month-to-month: from $9.95 per user per month plus calls, or $39.95 with calls included, cancel any month by telling us before the 27th.

Start a 30-day test drive — no port until you say so.
