Vodia provides companies with a powerful, out-of-the-box VoIP and UC communication platform built with secure infrastructure for immediate implementation, high reliability and scalability. Vodia is also the industry’s most feature-rich phone system, with video, voice, SMS, conferencing and instant messaging, all to make it easier for end-users to communicate with customers and partners. “We believe in our partners and we are committed to constant innovation and to providing end-users with the world’s best cloud PBX and the support they require for deployment and use,” says Vodia CEO and VoIP pioneer Christian Stredicke.

Behnke’s product portfolio is built around the company’s SIP 3.0 door intercom, emergency and monitoring services. Behnke takes door communication to the next level and designs 21st century products that ensure effortless and precise communication. Generation 3.0 is based on newly-developed high-performance hardware: Benhke is preparing for a future where intelligent call stations will support SIP video, (H.264), IPv6, current security features and an automatic, ambient noise customized volume control. 

The use of open interfaces as well-established protocols enables multiple application scenarios. With the use of SIP video, the video display on numerous system telephones from well-known manufacturers can be used seamlessly. Furthermore,; integration with video management systems, recording of video streams, and more, is also possible. The intuitive web front-end of the intercom stations enables the configuration of two SIP accounts, the implementation of schedules and even facilitates voice announcements.
