Choosing SMS Providers
Your SMS Gateway Provider should have experience in the field. There are many start-up SMS Service Providers and they don't necessarily stay around very long.
What to look for in an SMS Gateway Service Provider? On the face of it, surely it's just about the price per text message? There are plenty of web-based SMS Providers who publish their prices so why not just choose the lowest and go for it?
As with many things, price (albeit important) is just the starting point. Who wants that call at 7pm on a sunday night to say their SMS Gateway is down? What does it do for clients' loyalty if messages are delivered 3 hours late or, worse, not at all!
Experience is key in this market. The market for bulk business SMS is a rapidly changing one, what's true one day may not be true the next and working with a provider that has experience and contacts within the industry is key to mitigating failures in your applications because of the failure of your SMS Gateway Provider.
