Video conferencing is widely used, but rarely examined in terms of where it runs and who controls the infrastructure behind it. In many cases, video traffic is handled by external systems, introducing dependencies that are often overlooked. This piece explores how integrating Jitsi directly into the PBX brings video into the same environment as voice and communication management, giving organizations clearer boundaries, reduced reliance on third-party platforms, and greater control over how communication is handled.
Skills-based routing in V70 helps ensure incoming calls are matched with the most qualified available agents based on defined skills, language, and expertise. By combining IVR input with intelligent call distribution, organizations can reduce unnecessary transfers, improve first-contact resolution, and shorten handling time. With V70, skills can be defined directly within the PBX, allowing teams to set thresholds, prioritize expertise, and control how calls are routed across departments, queues, and different operational environments.
PBX snapshots in V70 provide a reliable way to capture system state before changes are applied, enabling fast recovery, controlled rollback, and more predictable system management when updating configurations, testing call flows, or operating across multiple tenants. By preserving a point-in-time version of the system, administrators can reduce the risk of disruption, restore services quickly when issues arise, and maintain stability while making ongoing changes in complex communication environments.
