Is Allworx right for your company’s phone system?

When you compare features, turns out you’re better off with Vodia.

Apps for Remote Users

You can connect your customers to the Vodia App, which is available for iOS. We give you Android and Windows Desktop, SMS support, presences, chat and more. The Allworx app doesn’t support SMS and chat.

Use Your Existing SIP Trunks

Connect your SIP trunk provider to the Vodia PBX with our pre-loaded templates – all you have to do is enter the SIP trunk provider’s account information. Vodia will register with the trunk provider and automatically create a dial plan, so your users can start making and receiving calls right away.

Use Your Existing IP Phones

Vodia supports all IP phones that “talk” SIP – we even provision them! This means the Vodia PBX will auto-configure each phone with your customer’s name, extension number, the IP phone buttons and more. No need for new phones. Allworx? It doesn’t support full auto-configure (no RPS server).

Turn Your Customers into Subscribers

Stop giving away your leads to other companies. With Vodia, you keep your relationships with your customers and the revenue you derive from servicing them. Healthy long-term relationships build value for you and for your customers.

The certified integration between the Vodia PBX and the Infor Hospitality Platform brings hotel operations and guest communications together. Through support for UHLL and FIAS, the two systems can exchange essential guest and room information, helping hotels automate extension activation at check-in, room resets at check-out, guest moves, calling permissions, call billing, Do Not Disturb settings, housekeeping updates, and wake-up calls. This reduces manual work for hotel staff and keeps telephone services synchronized throughout each guest’s stay.
