Skyetel is an exceptional SIP trunk provider that integrates effectively with the Vodia PBX, making it easy to manage multi-tenant billing and maintain accurate call records for each customer. By using the Skyetel trunk template, organizations can set up their SIP trunks with ease and ensure tenant names match across both platforms for accurate billing. This synchronization allows the Vodia PBX to forward tenant information, such as the "X-Tenant" header in SIP invites, to Skyetel, facilitating precise customer billing based on their unique tenant domain. This streamlined process enhances operational efficiency and simplifies billing management, making it an ideal solution for businesses utilizing the Vodia multi-tenant system. For more details on the setup process, you can check the guide here.
Skyetel is a great SIP trunk provider - it gives organizations the ability to bill customers based on the tenant name on the Vodia PBX. You can now easily configure your Skyetel SIP trunk with the Vodia PBX trunk template. Navigate to Tenant ---> SIP trunk, click on Add and choose Skyetel, then press Create.
Vodia multi-tenant billing with Skyetel
If you are running the Vodia multi-tenant PBX, you can use Skyetel to maintain an accurate call record for each of your customers. This makes it possible to have hundreds of tenants and bill them accordingly, based on the tenant domain name on the Vodia PBX.
The Skyetel trunk template is already configured to send tenant information to Skyetel's network. This means you will need to name the tenant on the Vodia PBX phone system so it’s the same on the Skyetel administrator portal under tenant ---> manage

The Vodia Enhanced Analytics Dashboard empowers call centers and enterprises to transform raw call data into clear, actionable intelligence. With real-time and historical metrics on agent performance, call volumes, abandonment rates, wait times, and routing efficiency, it delivers a complete view of communication activity across locations. These insights help identify peak traffic periods, uncover CX gaps, optimize staffing strategies, and improve service quality. By reducing missed and abandoned calls, organizations can deliver faster, more consistent support and strengthen customer loyalty.
Vodia PBX strengthens security with passkeys, giving users and administrators a secure, passwordless login method that eliminates many vulnerabilities tied to traditional credentials. Passkeys use public key cryptography, storing the private key on the user’s device and the public key on the server, making them resistant to phishing and credential theft. By reducing reliance on passwords, Vodia minimizes the attack surface in cloud environments and makes authentication simpler and more secure, while ensuring a smoother, faster login experience for all users.
Many organizations rely on Microsoft as the foundation of their daily operations, but their communication systems often exist in parallel rather than in harmony. Vodia closes that gap by bringing telephony into the same environment where teams already work, turning separate systems into one connected structure. This approach removes friction between platforms, simplifies management, and gives IT teams better control and visibility over daily communication. It also creates a more seamless experience for employees, reduces operational overhead, and builds a stronger, more flexible foundation that supports growth, collaboration, and long-term scalability.
