What is SMS?

SMS is an acronym for Short Message Service. SMS is a facility by which you can send and receive small alphanumeric messages between cellular phones. It can also be used to transfer binary payloads and to put into practice the WAP stack atop the SMSC bear. SMS can be used in any language, but that more or less depends on the handset that you are using and which language your area software supports. For e.g. English, Spanish,  and Portuguese are the languages usually used in SMSs in America whereas in Europe it differs greatly.

Advantages of SMS

Short message service, known as SMS and used mainly in Europe and Asia, has become an extremely popular way of sending personal messages. However, SMS also has several applications in the corporate environment:

  • To issue immediate alerts about emergencies and critical situations, for example, to alert a network administrator as soon as the Internet link is down

  • To send important information to key customers or suppliers, thereby ensuring that the information is received by the right person, immediately

  • As a kind of call center: Customers can send questions and receive replies by SMS, reducing call volume.

  • To notify roaming employees, such as sales people or technicians on the road, of any updates or messages

  • For marketing or CRM purposes: SMS messages are personal and have a high response rate

Although anybody with a mobile phone can send an SMS, GFI FAXmaker’s SMS gateway offers many advantages. Through it, users can type and send SMS messages much faster from their computer (rather than using their mobile phone pads) and can also use the corporate email address book for recipient mobile numbers. The SMS gateway grants organizations central control of SMS usage. A company can also benefit from application integration: Because GFI FAXmaker integrates seamlessly with Exchange Server or SMTP/Notes, any application that can generate emails can now send notifications via the SMS gateway, meaning that organizations can easily SMS-enable any corporate application.
