Excellent Product
Ease of use, and a good API. We use BulkSMS in our firewall integrations, and part of our service for checking that SIM cards in failover routers are still alive.
CONSNothing to dislike, whenever I've needed support, BulkSMS have been swift etc in their replies.

Great for text marketing
We were building a service for our clients using the integration, we had a lot of support from the staff
CONSThe API was not as thorough as we thought, we ended up using other vendors, and machine-assisted algorithms that would pick the most suitable.
Reasons for switching to BulkSMS
The cost of SimpleTexting, even with a discount was not enough to make the venture feasible.
Vendor Response
Thank you for your review. Would it be possible for you to share your experience with one of our representatives? We would like to understand where our API fell short so that we can improve on it.

BulkSMS is an essencial tool in our business!
It's an essential part of our daily business, and we can't imagine being without it.Our clients know exactly when they can collect their vehicles, at what time, and at what cost, withour banking information included. We run a Service Centre within the Motor Industry.
PROSIn a country like South Africa, where infrastructure is busy failing, it's essential to have a tool that's reliable. Our telephone systems are failing and we find it increasingly difficult to get hold of clients from time to time.I find that 90% of the time when we can't get hold of them via phone, we can send them an SMS, that will reach them and they can respond.
CONSI honestly can't find fault with the system. What might be an issue from time to time, is that clients don't seem to read their SMSs because they're relying on other Social Media platforms as their main form of communication.

Hello Glen, thank you for your review. Typically, when there is two-way messaging involved, and a contact replies stop - our system will automatically stop any future messaging from being sent to that contact. If you have any questions in this regard or would like more information, please email me at hello@bulksms.com and I will take a look at your account. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours in messaging, Samantha
