Superb Platform for Testing SMS

We have been using TelQ for as long as I have been at the company (5+ years) and have never had any issues. Their customer service is fantastic (especially [sensitive content hidden] ) and I would recommend TelQ to any SMS provider/Aggregator/MVNO looking to test and measure the quality of their SMS.

PROS

TelQ provides a super easy-to-use and feature-rich web platform for testing SMS to countries around the globe. There are test numbers for pretty much every country and network which has enabled us to significantly improve our routing operations, and offer our clients the best quality SMS routes. The TelQ platform allows us to easily identify which SMS have been successfully delivered, whether we have received a false DLR, and if there are any changes to the sender id or content of the SMS.There are regular updates to the platform and the TelQ team are always keen to demonstrate new feature/receive feedback about what they can improve.

CONS

We have not encountered any problems with TelQ.

Apart from the occasional test number failures and slow result loading, TelQ works very well and provides a simple and effective way of testing with lots of required information.

I liked the outlook of the test results and the templates, it is easy to see through and handle.

Sometimes the test results load with a delay, and sometimes it is not clear whether the issue is with the route or the testing tool.

Helpful platform for SMS delivery testing

Excellent result and experience with TelQ.

PROS

Easiness to perform SMS delivery testing that we used for our SMS marketing campaign. Test SMS route before we blast the SMS marketing to ensure the campaign can reach all the recipient list.

Some delay with the result even when they said it would in real-time data capture. Other than those issue, everything else is up to the standard for a testing platform

Experience with TELQ

It´s a good tool.

PROS

I like the variety of data and test nodes

CONS

- Lack of some small operators. I´v always requested new networks but I´ve never gotten. - Test in batches should be easier, the excel file sometimes complicates everything.- We are not able to know if the DLR arrives than the SMS arrives to the handset. This is essential to detect SMSC DLR suppliers and FAKE DLRs.- No SMS MO capability..

Vendor Response

Dear Jose, your sincerity and detailed feedback are much appreciated! The points mentioned in your review are well-taken and noted, we ensure consistent quality and customer satisfaction, and shall not cease to do so. Regarding the coverage requests - depending on the subscriber count, SIMs commercial availability, network density, and other relevant factors - the acquisition of certain destinations (especially smaller operators) proves more difficult, thus the delay for which we sincerely apologise. Addressing the technical concerns, MO feature, and additional expectations would be best via our support and your account manager - we'd be happy to discuss further and expand on the use cases, knowledge base, requirements, and any other needs you may have - kindly feel free to reach out to us anytime!
