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.
