May 12, 2025
Vodia’s prepaid cloud PBX solution for Microsoft Azure enables businesses to quickly deploy a fully licensed, enterprise-grade phone system without the complexity of traditional installations. Designed for speed, scalability, and ease of use, the offering supports packages for up to 80 users and includes a Teams-certified Session Border Controller (SBC) that allows seamless integration of Vodia PBX features—such as auto-attendants, call queues, and intelligent routing—directly within Microsoft Teams. Whether you’re an SMB or a growing enterprise, Vodia’s prepaid PBX is a powerful and flexible solution that’s easy to scale as your business evolves.
In 2010 Microsoft Azure helped bring businesses worldwide to the cloud from on-prem data centers: Azure gives businesses a network of more than 300 data centers in over 60 regions, eliminating the costs and the man-hours required to maintain on-prem infrastructure.
The Evolution of Azure
Azure has evolved over the past decade-and-a-half, and this flexible, scalable cloud platform now comprises AI, application services, and data, all working in harmony to provide any organization with a unified approach to cloud computing. As of 2025, Azure’s global data center network is made up of 200 products and services, with 95 percent of Fortune 500 companies deploying Azure for peerless communications and AI transformation. Vodia has made it possible to install our PBX on the Azure platform since 2015.
