Traditional Property Management Systems (PMS) are also being replaced by more modern IP based systems that can seamlessly integrate with other IP based systems and services.

Vodia’s PMS module will enable the Vodia PBX and the PMS on the property to synchronize the status of hotel guests, rooms and other housekeeping functions between the PBX and the front desk. For example, a guest check-in can automatically update the Vodia PBX to log all calls placed by the guest during the stay and have the phone bill included in the guest’s invoice at check-out time. Maid codes initiated by housekeeping from the room phone can automatically notify the front desk that the particular room has been cleaned and is ready for the next guest. Guest extensions can be set to Do-not-Disturb in case the guest does not wish to receive any calls. External calls for any guest can be restricted by setting a credit limit for the guest at the front desk which automatically notifies the Vodia PBX to restrict calls for the guest accordingly. Multi-property hotel chains can further lower infrastructure costs by integrating all on-site PMS systems to a single Vodia PBX system in the cloud.

“We have been seeing a lot of interest from the hospitality customers for a robust phone system that can be deployed alongside their existing PMS systems. Since Vodia PBX is already one of the leading PBX products in the industry, our new PMS functionality will now allow hotels to not only benefit from the feature richness of the Vodia PBX but also help them automate their front-desk functions, save time on guest check-ins and lower the total cost of ownership of the overall system by using IP based trunks. We are very excited with this new development and are looking forward to reach out to a whole new set of customers.” says Ahmar Ghaffar, VP Sales and Marketing at Vodia Networks.
