“We were jumping on that train very early,” says Christian Stredicke, serving the MSPs, Vodia is marking a decade as a leader and pioneer in offering PBX software that effectively turns mobile phones, laptops, PCs and standard VoIP phones into clients everyone in an organization can use for communication. Vodia has held the vision of enabling communication from many devices, which enables what we now call hybrid work. “People should be able to work from anywhere,” says Stredicke. Even a decade ago, Vodia saw that the browser would play a larger and larger role. In this podcast we learn how Vodia saw the possibilities a decade ago and embraced them. Stredicke discusses how real time communications, and WebRTC, moved functions, including voice communication to the browser. Along the way, Vodia has been careful not to get too far ahead of customers and clients. Stredicke discusses how listening, patience, and pragmatism has tempered Vodia’s approach, by meeting immediate demands and needs while architecting for the future with products that anticipate customer migration to embrace mobility and browser-based options. “The personal touch is something we value a lot” adds Stredicke.

WLAN and VoIP: What You Need to Know

As businesses increasingly adopt Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN), understanding its impact on Voice over IP (VoIP) is essential. While WLAN offers flexibility and mobility, it can lead to call quality issues due to packet loss and bursts during access point switching.
