Not sure I understand the Sure Broadband business model to be honest.
They seem to cover the same area Karoo has good connection speeds (generally for).
They are more expensive than Karoo, and offer similar speed.
You have to pay a significiant amount for installation of Sure, Karoo is free or alternatively a very large sum up front.
It doesn't replace your telephone line, which you still need to have or sign up to a VOIP service which would probably put your combined line rental at about the same as Karoo, but with the outlay I have set out above.
On top of this, KC is very likely about to start a roll out of fibre optic which will blow the speed of Sure Broadband out of the water.
I can see that it might be a good choice for a few people, mainly those in range of Sure but far from a telephone exchange, but enough to maintain a business? What am I missing?

Are you thinking of something else?
It's cheaper than Karoo. £15 for 30gb or 22.50 for unlimited. Speeds are faster ! Between 10-25mbps.
For VoIP I use sip gate. Free 01482 number and no line rental, only pay for calls (0.5p per minutes) incoming calls are free.
Also you can get free install at the minute if you pay your years subscription in advanced.

It is more than that. I pay £17+ for 20gb, then you have to have a phone line @ around £15 mth.
Even the bundles are a ripp. £30 for and extra 10gb but an 18 mth contract

| As someone who has moved to Hull, Karoo is absolutely awful, and their monopoly on the area cannot be justified. However I can't see it changing any time soon!
