WOBURN, MA. – Oct. 22, 2013 – Today Vodia Networks Inc  announced its cloud-based PBX solution for SMBs, that provides a highly robust and feature rich communications platform to cater to the ever growing needs of today’s distributed and mobile workforce. The cloud-based service called “Hosted I AM” or “hostedi.am” enables businesses to lower the total cost of ownership of their telephone systems by providing a managed phone system on the cloud along with a complete suite of business features. For businesses with multiple branch offices, hostedi.am provides a single system that will seamlessly connect all locations without the need for a complex infrastructure.

Based on the highly successful “snom ONE IP-PBX phone system”, one of the key strengths of hostedi.am compared to traditional cloud-based phone services is the ability to bring any standard SIP trunk provider to the service for POTS/Mobile termination. This gives the users the ultimate freedom in selecting the trunk provider of their choice according to their budget, locality and desired quality. This not only guarantees better termination prices but also allows users to keep their existing numbers as well as setup destination dependent routes to lower the over-all cost per minute for their calls.

Hostedi.am boasts the most popular features of business telephony including Auto receptionist, Call queues, SMS notifications, Fax-to-email, Mobile phone integration, Click-to-call (WebRTC), Video relay, Automatic Call Distribution (ACD), Multi-party Conferencing and much more. The plug-and-play functionality of the hostedi.am is designed to take the set up complexity out of the customer’s office by enabling automatic setup of end-devices at the time of sign-up.

To include resellers in the ecosystem, hostedi.am introduces a brand new reseller program that enables resellers to take the platform, re-brand it and resell it to their clients under their very own service brand name. This program further enables hostedi.am resellers to earn recurring revenues based on referrals. For further details please contact partner@vodia.com

Currently the hostedi.am service is available in North America, Europe and South Africa.

Why Area Codes Still Matter in a Mobile World

Even in 2025, area codes remain important for personal and business communications. People move frequently but usually keep their original phone numbers because changing them is inconvenient and tied to banking, two-factor authentication, and multiple online accounts. For PBX administrators, area codes are essential for routing calls accurately, displaying the correct caller ID, and managing costs. Vodia PBX simplifies area code management with pattern-based dial plans, automatic updates, and smart trunk selection. This ensures that calls reach the right destination efficiently, maintain a local presence to increase pickup rates, and provide reliable communication both in North America and internationally.

Keycloak OpenID Connect Integration for the Vodia PBX

Vodia’s PBX now integrates with Keycloak OpenID Connect, providing secure single sign-on for users so they can access all connected applications without repeated authentication. Logging out from one application automatically logs the user out of all connected systems, simplifying user management and improving security. Keycloak, a Cloud Native Computing Foundation project, supports standard protocols including OpenID Connect, OAuth 2.0, and SAML, offering enterprise-grade identity and access management. To ensure proper integration, Keycloak user emails must match the corresponding PBX extension emails. Complete guidance is available in the Vodia Keycloak integration guide.
