    Amazing customer support

    Date: Aug 21 2024
    Summary

    5/5

    The platform is easy to use and it is not "rocket science".

    And if you have any issue contact them.

    Positive

    They have a very fas customer support.

    Their team helped me with a problem that has been taking me too much time and effort and energy.

    But now it is solved.

    Negative

    Nothing.
    Maybe an area to improve is having an AI customer support.

    AI do not sleep or get sick so it might be good to try it out.

    Stable, trustworthy very long-standing provider I'm sticking with

    Date: May 23 2023
    Summary

    Generally good, have got to know the platform over time, and am well-established using it now after some years.

    Positive

    They have a basic set of web-based functions which are useful to me, and a decent-looking API which I am confident about exploring one day. The systems have been predictable and stable in ways that matter to me for many years.

    Negative

    I think there might be some cheaper alternatives, but as long as I'm sending hundreds of texts and not millions, I would rather the stability of a known and trusted platform for (maybe) the sake of fractions of a penny.

    Bulk SMS is used in critical comms use-cases

    Date: May 23 2023
    Summary

    Overall experience is nine out of ten. The tool is very useful and is used extensively to enable the designed comms strategy for multiple clients/ use-cases.

    Positive

    Bulk SMS enables speedy comms of messages. The ability to personalize messages are critical and this really helps us to makes messages personal and deliver it on time.

    Negative

    At times the downstream delivery of SMS are delayed. The SMS delivery report does show failure status, but the "why" is not always clear. It's not always clear in the ZA context whether the failure is at Cellular Service Provider level or due to Cellular tower failure due to electricity blackouts.

    Quick service.

    Date: Oct 27 2023
    Summary

    A super useful product that is easy to use and saves me time and gets the responses that I need for my business.

    Positive

    When I deal with the BulkSMS Support team I always find them responsive and quick to guide me to a solution to whatever problem I might be trying to solve.

    Negative

    Nothing to add here. I would like to see more analytics of the messages that I have sent available, but my understanding is that this is coming.

    Very slow implementation, very scarce communcation

    Date: Jun 07 2023
    Summary

    The impression that BulkSMS is very well established in the southern African countries (where we work and need sound aggregation services) and therefore can establish the necessary services quickly and reasonably priced, was obviously wrong. It is just a hope a the moment, that after many months of waiting the basic service proposal will be stablished in the near future and will work smoothly.

    Positive

    The promises in the proposal of what BulkSMS will be able to do sounded very good at the beginning (last year).

    Negative

    Implementation is still pending after many months of patience.
