A flexible, cloud-neutral PBX built for real-world deployments in 2026, Vodia supports MSPs, enterprises, and service providers with an open, SIP-compliant platform designed for scale. With Vodia PBX version 70 arriving in Q1 2026, the platform brings multi-tenant hosting, reuse of existing IP phones through centralized provisioning, built-in WebRTC softphones, transparent licensing, and partner-driven support, giving organizations full control over modern business telephony without lock-in or hidden costs.

It’s been a busy 2025 at Vodia. Since 2012 we’ve been delivering one of the most flexible cloud PBX platforms to businesses large and small the world over, with more than a half-million users worldwide. In November we released a preview version of the newest iteration of our industry-standard PBX, version 70, with the official release expected in Q1 2026.  

A cloud PBX designed for MSPs, enterprises, and service providers

We give you complete freedom in telephony, whether you’re a global enterprise or a local SMB working with your preferred MSP. Our feature-rich, scalable, easy-to-deploy, and easy-to-use PBX software gives enterprises and SMBs the most complete suite of business telephony features for on-prem and cloud telephony systems and services:

Vodia hosted multi-tenant can be run on AWS, Azure, Google – it’s also available in the DigitalOcean Marketplace. This is a great way to run scenarios, test the apps, and take our Microsoft Teams integration for a spin. 

Use your existing IP phones with centralized RPS provisioning

With the Vodia PBX, you don’t need to replace existing IP phones. And our RPS management enables mass button deployments and firmware upgrades, and dropshipping preconfigured phones, so provisioning phones is secure. 

Built-in softphone with WebRTC for desktop and mobile users

Our softphone is built into the desktop app (and mobile apps), and can be used to make and receive VoIP phone calls directly from a user’s work computer (or mobile phone) using our WebRTC technology. Whether it’s deployed at an enterprise or an SMB, users will love our easy-to-use interface for a variety of robust features:

  • address book searches
  • checking voice mails 
  • presence
  • receiving voicemail and incoming call notifications
  • scrolling through call history

What about Upfront Costs? Long-Term Commitment? Hidden Costs? 

With Vodia, there are neither upfront costs nor a long-term commitment, and there are no hidden costs - all of our apps and features are included. As a Vodia partner, you get a full-featured license for demo and testing purposes free for the first 60 days, so you can see for yourself how our advanced PBX features are truly unmatched.

White-glove PBX support built around long-term partners

We are committed to white glove support and to input from our partners whenever we announce new features and versions. We consider your success our success.
