Vodia’s new SMS Management feature centralizes all customer SMS provider connections under SIP Trunks for each tenant. It allows you to easily add supported providers and manage SMS numbers with custom settings like name, number, provider and message routing. Policies can be created for opt-in/opt-out messaging, welcome messages, message retention and conversation management with keywords. Additionally, menu selections offer customizable options for customers, such as providing information or directing them to URLs. This enhances SMS management by streamlining provider setup and message handling for better customer interaction.
Under Numbers, you can specify the SMS number for the user to check the values below:
Name: Name with customer or group name
Number: Add the SMS DID
Policy: If no policy has been created, choose "none"
Provider: Choose your provider
URL prefix: This prefix can be unique for each number: set the prefix you want in the provider portal and use that prefix when you assign the SMS number
Source: Souce can come to the assigned extension
Destination: Destination messages can be sent to any other extension or to the same extension

Vodia PBX strengthens security with passkeys, giving users and administrators a secure, passwordless login method that eliminates many vulnerabilities tied to traditional credentials. Passkeys use public key cryptography, storing the private key on the user’s device and the public key on the server, making them resistant to phishing and credential theft. By reducing reliance on passwords, Vodia minimizes the attack surface in cloud environments and makes authentication simpler and more secure, while ensuring a smoother, faster login experience for all users.
Many organizations rely on Microsoft as the foundation of their daily operations, but their communication systems often exist in parallel rather than in harmony. Vodia closes that gap by bringing telephony into the same environment where teams already work, turning separate systems into one connected structure. This approach removes friction between platforms, simplifies management, and gives IT teams better control and visibility over daily communication. It also creates a more seamless experience for employees, reduces operational overhead, and builds a stronger, more flexible foundation that supports growth, collaboration, and long-term scalability.
Vodia will be attending CVxExpo 2025 in Glendale, Arizona, from November 3–5. Sales Engineer Eric Altman will be on site to meet with current and prospective partners, demonstrating how Vodia’s PBX solutions can strengthen technology roadmaps for 2026. This year, Vodia highlights new integrations with ActiveCampaign, Freshdesk, HighLevel, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Presence, monday.com, and Odoo Cloud, along with enhanced call center capabilities such as agent activity dashboards, call recordings, and transcription features. Partners and attendees can schedule meetings with Eric to learn more about scalable, feature-rich, and cost-effective telecommunications solutions built for enterprises and SMBs.
