Logic Wireless Website Refresh

Tuesday, July 2nd, 2024

We’re thrilled to announce that the Logic Wireless website has undergone a significant transformation to showcase what makes Logic so great – it’s the Logic plus!


Refreshed Logic website, designed with our users in mind

During planning sessions late 2023, the team were discussing what Logic was all about. What did we do? Who did we do it for? What value were we offering? (And a whole bunch more!). We knew our team was excellent, our services second-to-none, we had the best dealer channel, and a brilliant portfolio of products and brands that we worked with. But we weren’t doing a good enough job telling folks this.

Our website is the digital “front door” to Logic and we wanted our website to reflect who we’d become, the value we added, and who we wanted to be going forward. It needed the Logic Plus!

The team spent the end of 2023 mapping out user journeys, looking at what we needed to deliver to our dealers, our suppliers and end-users, and how that’d work for our website. Our inaugural channel survey in Q1 2024 confirmed our assumptions about the need for more information, and we engaged with Christchurch design agency, MetaDigital, to develop a new website for Logic Wireless.

It’s been a busy few months, but the Logic team is extremely proud to announce that we went live with our new website last week, giving a first preview of the new site at Comms Connect NZ!

Goals for the Logic website

It was a tall order, but we think we’ve nailed it!

We invite you to visit the new Logic Wireless website, browse our pages and let us know what you think of your new online Logic experience! Does it deliver the Logic Plus?

Coming soon to the Logic website…

Phase 2 of the Logic website will see industry and solution content added. So bookmark our website and watch this space!

Sunday, April 7th, 2024

Who is the best communications distributor in Asia-Pacific?

What is a Value-Added Distributor?

A Value-Added Distributor offers extra services that provide additional value to a client. These valuable services are generally offered in addition to delivering the product/service.
Traditional Distributors handle transactions—they pick, pack, and deliver goods.

Top 6 benefits of working with Logic Wireless

Aside from being a team of all-round top folks, here are six reasons why others love to partner with us:

  1. We always have plenty of stock: It’s true. Nothing worse than needing something and having to wait weeks. Our warehouses are full and ready for your orders!
  2. Orders are shipped fast: Also true. Our team may be small, but we’re mighty fast and good at what we do. With warehouses in both Christchurch (NZ) and North Brisbane (AU), we can get orders shipped out fast.
  3. The Logic team and our experienced resellers are second to none: Logic is incredibly proud of our support team—some have been with us for 12+ years! Logic support services include system design, coverage design, technical support, software support and warranty repairs. Thanks to the technical knowledge, problem-solving skills, and out-of-the-box thinking from the Logic support team and our reseller channel, organisations across the region are overcoming their communication challenges. From pre-sales advice to post-sales logistics and support, together we’ve got your back!
  4. Our diverse product portfolio gives you choice and flexibility: Logic partners with over 20 industry-leading suppliers of high-quality critical communications products. Don’t get locked into one manufacturer’s solution when a mixed-vendor solution can offer better value and solution customisation. From Land Mobile Radio (LMR) to Push to Talk over Cellular (PTToC), software applications to accessories and everything in between, we help you get the best of all worlds.
  5. Logic’s own-brand accessories are fantastic: In addition to partnering with industry-leading manufacturers of antennas, audio accessories, RSMs, chargers, power supplies and more, Logic has also developed a fantastic range of hardware and software solutions to complement the wider portfolio.
  6. Logic supports technology convergence: In addition to traditional LMR solutions and accessories, we’d be remiss if we ignored the emergence and convergence of broadband technologies and the potential they bring to supercharge communications. There’s a place for each, and we’re proud to support and offer a range of broadband connectivity solutions including cellular PTToC devices and applications.

The Logic team prides itself in offering the best quality products and superior client service and support. We partner with the best and our reputation speaks for itself. But don’t take our word for it, ask others. They’ll tell you that working with us is the logical choice.
