Vodia Networks announced the certification of its PBX for Microsoft Teams, enabling seamless integration that removes the need for an external Session Border Controller (SBC). This simplifies connections between Teams and VoIP devices, reducing complexity and costs while enhancing reliability. Highlighting the milestone on the Technology Reseller News Podcast, Vodia CEO Dr. Christian Stredicke shared how the certification expands opportunities in sectors like hospitality, education, and manufacturing, while giving Teams users access to advanced PBX features such as auto attendants and call routing.

On November 19, Vodia announced our PBX has been certified by Microsoft for integration with Microsoft Teams. Vodia founder and CEO, Dr. Christian Stredicke, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Telecom Reseller, on the Technology Reseller News Podcast, to discuss this important milestone for Vodia. 

Teams gives enterprises and SMBs an unparalleled suite of features for video communication and collaboration: using the Vodia PBX with Teams eliminates the need for an external Session Border Controller (SBC) between Teams and VoIP devices, improving reliability while reducing complexity and expense. The certification gives Teams users access to a full suite of robust PBX features, such as auto attendants, call routing, voicemail and more while providing secure voice services of the highest quality.  

We were doing some kind of work with Teams before,” Dr. Stredicke says, “but now that we are officially part of the ecosystem, I think we can reach more customers and make more things possible.” 

Further along in the podcast, Mr. Green and Dr. Stredicke discuss the robust functionalities the  combination of the Vodia PBX with Teams brings to hospitality and to the public sector, including schools, and manufacturing.  

Dr. Stredicke also mentions Microsoft’s ongoing market dominance, and how it’s important for Vodia to “bring something” to the ecosystem. “We’re making new things possible,” he says. “The certification gives you assurance this will actually work.”
