Delaying PBX upgrades may feel safe in the short term, but real-world dependencies like security standards, app compatibility, and vendor APIs eventually force reactive upgrades at the worst possible time. Staying reasonably current with Vodia PBX versions, rather than clinging to outdated releases or jumping on every new preview, helps maintain security, compatibility, and performance while avoiding emergency upgrades, especially as newer features and OS requirements become unavoidable.

Serving 1.1 million students across 1,800 schools, the proposed transition to a cloud-based VoIP platform focuses on resiliency, scalability, multilingual capabilities, hybrid deployment options, and integration with Microsoft Teams for more than 150,000 staff members.
Hospitality is undergoing a major shift as AI and cloud telephony reshape guest interactions. In this podcast, Christian Stredicke discusses which changes genuinely improve hotel operations and guest experience, why room phones still matter, and how modern PBXs can balance automation with the human touch that defines real hospitality. He also examines on-prem versus cloud deployments, renovation timing, emergency calling, and the ways the right system can reduce costs while raising service quality.
