It is fantastic to see KISA develop a product in consultation with blind and vision impaired people, rather than dictate what we should have. Older Australians will also find this phone a real life saver.

My hat off to KISA team for bringing out a product with such crisp and clear ties to its niche user needs. What a fresh change from a "see what we can do!"philosophy in product development to "what would you like us to do?" You have taken the time to ask your potential users what they want - and you have listened. The result is not only a product that is unique and desirable but also an impressive head-start in customer relations.

It's the best phone for elderly people who can't manage a mobile phone. With the NBN coming its unsafe for my parents to be without a phone should the power or NBN drop out. The Kisa phone provides the security that they are always able to contact the family and emergency services.

KISA is one of the few companies that I have found recently to provide immediate, polite and accurate ongoing support. I've contacted them a couple of times for advice and found the staff to be completely interested in us and wanting to help however they could.
