What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love the callback URL features, where delivery notifications can be sent automatically to your desired destination. I also find amazing, for less advanced IT users, the ability to send SMS via emails, in bulk, without any coding knowledge required. Integration is so easy also via Zapier, which gave us access to our most used apps like Gmail and MailChimp.

What do you dislike most about this product?

TextMagic rarely offers promotions or discounts. Also messages sent but not delivered are charged as same.

We have been using TextMagic for the past 8 years and I must say that it has proven to be a tools to optimize communication. Generally, after our board meetings, we send our notes of meeting as well as a communiqué. However, we noticed that the open rate for these was very low. With TextMagic, we were able to send these via a link, send by SMS to all of our members. This optimized our reach, making sure also that our important messages are communicated timely. Best of all, we were able to have a record for this via the TextMagic online CRM SMS platform.
