“AI is definitely the buzzword - agentic, chatbots, generative…it was certainly the main element in the atmosphere! I had a chance to hear some very interesting speakers and some fascinating keynotes. Things are moving at a rapid pace.”

“I’m excited about what we’ve accomplished with AI so far,” Eric added. “Vodia PBX version 69.5.6, the newest version of our phone system, includes important updates specifically for AI, including real-time AI integration with OpenAI and call transcriptions through the Whisper API. I believe AI is going to become a core component of the Vodia PBX, and I’m truly excited about the possibilities. This is just the start for us.”
Vodia has begun publishing a series of in-depth articles about its robust features, including a post about its REST API and another about the impeccable security of its PBX. Upcoming posts include an article about the Vodia web user portal and a spotlight on CDRs and call recording.

The recording of the Htek and Vodia joint webinar “Seamless Compatibility” is now available, showcasing how the Vodia PBX integrates with Htek’s UCV(Pro) and UC900 series IP phones. The session highlights zero-touch provisioning, real-world deployment examples, and practical use cases for education and hospitality, illustrating how the combined solution delivers a reliable and future-ready communications setup for businesses of all sizes.
Vodia’s 2025 marked a year of pragmatic AI adoption, unprecedented platform robustness, and laying the foundation for the next phase of the PBX. With version 69 reaching exceptional stability, focus has shifted to version 70, which introduces a redesigned admin interface and major architectural improvements in scalability, resilience, and flexibility. Alongside steady expansion of integrations and partner tooling, the roadmap for 2026 emphasizes refined user experiences, modernized apps, and continued investment in reliability over hype.
Delaying PBX upgrades may feel safe in the short term, but real-world dependencies like security standards, app compatibility, and vendor APIs eventually force reactive upgrades at the worst possible time. Staying reasonably current with Vodia PBX versions, rather than clinging to outdated releases or jumping on every new preview, helps maintain security, compatibility, and performance while avoiding emergency upgrades, especially as newer features and OS requirements become unavoidable.
