Eric Altman joins Doug Green on the Technology Reseller News podcast to discuss Vodia V70 and the latest innovations in business communications. The conversation covers the redesigned admin portal, centralized remote provisioning, AI voice agents for inbound and outbound call handling, and upcoming additions such as Vodia Monitor and Vodia Analytics. Eric also explains how V70 helps enterprises, SMBs, and service providers build more scalable, flexible, and intelligent communication environments across both cloud and on-premise deployments.
V70 of the Vodia PBX introduces flexible service flags that help organizations automate call routing, scheduling, queue management, announcements, and communication workflows throughout the day. Service flags can be configured manually or automatically to control how calls are handled during business hours, after hours, holidays, or special events. They can also be chained together for more advanced routing logic and integrated with external calendars such as Google Calendar to support dynamic scheduling and operational flexibility across business environments.
Business communication systems have evolved rapidly, but many organizations are still dealing with fragmented tools, limited visibility, and growing operational complexity. As more platforms and channels are added, clarity often decreases, making it harder to manage workflows, respond in real time, and maintain control. A modern approach requires consolidating systems, improving visibility, and reducing noise to create a more efficient and manageable communication environment.
