Messaging that works directly into your PBX

WhatsApp conversations appear directly in the Vodia user client, allowing users to send and receive messages alongside voice calls and other PBX communication channels.

With WhatsApp connected to the PBX you can:

  • Send and receive WhatsApp messages directly from PBX extensions
  • Deliver incoming messages to specific users or teams
  • Use your existing PBX routing logic for conversations
  • Handle both voice and messaging from the same system
  • Keep customer communication centralized in your PBX

WhatsApp messaging supports both text and image messages, enabling richer customer conversations through the platform.

WhatsApp calls route through your PBX call flows

Incoming WhatsApp calls can be routed through PBX call flows just like SIP calls, allowing teams to handle conversations using familiar PBX routing logic.

This allows you to:

  • Route WhatsApp calls to extensions
  • Deliver calls to ring groups or call queues
  • Apply IVR and call routing logic
  • Integrate WhatsApp calls into existing PBX workflows

Voice calls become part of your PBX environment instead of being handled separately in mobile apps.
