Our customers actually started with us, let’s say 400 calls, about 400 calls a day. Five years later there are 3000 calls per day. The reason for that is we applied Vodia functionality to various parts of their organizations and captured all the call records that transacted through the system, and we analyzed, for them, to find the source of the calls, what areas geographically, and thus the customer was able to focus their resources in servicing those areas, reaching many more patients and many more doctors.

My name is Rashid Jamalalldeen. I’ve been with Vodia for a long time – even before the company was called Vodia.
Our customers actually started with us, let’s say 400 calls, about 400 calls a day. Five years later there are 3000 calls per day. The reason for that is we applied Vodia functionality to various parts of their organizations and captured all the call records that transacted through the system, and we analyzed, for them, to find the source of the calls, what areas geographically, and thus the customer was able to focus their resources in servicing those areas, reaching many more patients and many more doctors.
When they switch to our system, to Vodia, they were able to get an unlimited number of calls, unlimited voicemails, all that stuff, and their actual business doubled in size in ten months! And that’s measurable. These kinds of success stories, there are many of them. We have customers who’ve been with us, using Vodia, since 2005. And they are so happy now that their calls are not being missed, are being counted, measured, and they are able to respond quickly.
As a matter of fact I should share this with you very clearly. The ability to use what we used to call ACD, now it is called the queues in Vodia, made it extremely useful to the high volume of some of our customers, the high volume calls, for our customers, to be able to ask the caller if they wish to wait, that’s fine, but they may just let us call them as soon as an agent is ready to call them back. And that happens in such a way that the system actually calls them back and connects the agent, immediately, to talk with them and respond to what their questions are. And that in itself is unique, in addition to that unique feature in the ACD, or in the queue, I should say. You can allow multiple agents to have more than one call at a time, in addition to the sequence of the calls, which is being based on (the agent’s) knowledge or specialty, and so on.
There is no limit to where you can use Vodia. The flexibility in it makes it unbelievably adaptable to almost any business. There’s been many, many successes, and there will always be many successes, and we are going to continue promoting it as well as working with it, because it became part of our customers’ lives. And that’s how we’re going to continue.
The Vodia-Cloudbeds integration connects hotel communications with essential property-management workflows. From check-in to check-out, it automatically enables and personalizes room extensions, applies guest calling permissions, posts eligible call charges to Cloudbeds and resets extension data after each stay. Two years on, the integration continues Vodia’s long-standing work in hospitality, helping hotel teams reduce manual administration, protect guest information and keep telephone services synchronized with their daily operations.
The Vodia integration with Jitsi Meet brings secure, self-hosted video conferencing directly into the Vodia PBX web portal. Users can launch meetings with a single click, while organizations maintain control over their infrastructure, meeting content and access. With JWT-based authentication, automatic room creation tied to extensions and controlled guest access, the integration offers a private, scalable alternative to conventional hosted video conferencing platforms while bringing voice and video together in one communications environment.
Vodia Phone 2 turns your Android device into an extension of your Vodia Phone System, making it easier to stay connected wherever you work. Native Android integration lets users make and receive business calls using their office number and identity, even when the app is running in the background. From one mobile app, they can hold, transfer and park calls, access voicemail, messages and contacts, review call history, view extension activity and manage important settings such as Do Not Disturb and call forwarding.
