For noisy speech it's not at all bad. For data modes - write your own seems
to be the best option, this is what I plan to do for DM780 sometime. Sending
data around at 8kHz with (estimated) 25% overhead is not a big problem, it's
a trivial programming task, just takes some time to design and the implement
it properly.
