Our problem is that we required an early warning system to alert our engineers when critical alarms occur in our national energy monitoring system.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ryle N. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 06, 2023

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

The easy create of sender names and fast message sending

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

When the message fails we do not get our money back. A way to be exceed low credits if you didnt manage to see the email for low credit. Also instead of email low credts also sms the registered mobile.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Havent  seen solutions yet.

**Official Response from Samantha van Putten:**

> Thank you for your review, Ryle. We hear you - the low credit notifications were being missed via email - which is why we also offer it via SMS. Let me know if we can help you with setting that up? You can send your request, with your username and the low credit level you'd like to be alerted at to my email: hello@bulksms.com.

  ### 3. Good Software with a BUT

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Albert B. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 06, 2023

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Web usage is extremely simple and helpful, and Reports give us everything we need.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

Unfortunately, the Singapore Government has introduced an anti-spam feature for sending SMSs. 
Unless we (or BulkSMS) is registered with sgnic, SMSs are no longer sent.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The simple usage to integrate the sms-sending into our web system is the main advantage.

**Official Response from Samantha van Putten:**

> Thank you for your review, Albert. Yes, we're registering Sender IDs on behalf of our customers on a daily basis. This has become business as usual with many networks worldwide and is a process we're working on and with daily.  Please let us know if you need any help on this, or if you have any questions. 

  ### 4. Bulk SMS - API plugin to lending software

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott L. | GM, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 24, 2020

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Bulk SMS came highly recommended from our software developers for use with our Software/System as a way to send payment reminders, receipts, etc via SMS to our customers, directly our of our software via an API plug in. So far it has worked flawlessly. Prices are competitive, overall a great value.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

At this time, nothing! We've only been using the service for a few months, but we are thoroughly enjoying the ease of use, API abilities, and efficiency it has added to our  organization.

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

Bulk SMS is a great solution for anyone considering a SMS service with API plug in capability.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Bulk SMS for our system generated reminder texts to both keep people informed about upcoming payments, and remind them about missed payments. We also use it for a reminder campaign for folks who have filled out paperwork but not taken advantage of our product yet.

  ### 5. BulkSMS - Touch your clients everywhere with SMS

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

That the API allows us to leverage our client data easily without having to upload it to the web interface, like in the past. Scheduling is a huge plus, and it allows us unlimited options when running campaigns for the month.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

That the amount of credits that we purchase has to be requested outside of the system because the volume is too high. However, we do get a good rate on credits but we would appreciate better rates and simplicity of invoicing when purchasing credits.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mass communication reaches all our clients in every reach of overseas counties. Combining the power of SMS and shortened links, we can survey engagement and metrics very easily. We have found that SMS, especially in the Southern African context, is a more successful medium to reach our clientele.

  ### 6. There are reasons I've used BulkSMS exclusively for so many years!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** JL R. | IT Consultant, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Focus on core functionality. There are niceties, too -- and a proper API which is hugely beneficial to those of us who want it -- but ultimately, the basic features need to be fast, easy to access, reliable. Notably, I've never run into issues with international numbers or 'edge cases', which is also good to know, now I think about it.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

It's not the cheapest, but I do find it very affordable for my needs, and I'd rather pay for something good that operates the way I want it to than just go cheap for the sake of it.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can quickly and easily text people from a desktop or laptop. I can broadcast notifications for business services to predefined lists of contacts. I utilise the sender functionality to be able to send information as an announcement that shouldn't be part of a text-based conversation. These are just some of the uses we have employed to date.

  ### 7. Works perfectly for notifying customers their devices are ready for collection without phone calls.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Murdo M. | Director/Computer Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 25, 2022

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

If you call a customer you could spend ages on the phone to explain how you fixed their device & costing you money at the same time, or not able to get through to them & keep trying, so instead send them an SMS to say it is completed & then they can call you instead or just call in to collect it. So saves our staff alot of time with less phone calls.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

I cant think of any other than maybe to get an email notification when we are starting to run low on credits as we use it integrated into our job sheet software so dont see our remaining credits on a daily basis.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Spend less time trying to contact customers on the phone & waiting for them to call you back. So just send them an SMS to say to contact you when they can or to say that their job is completed & ready to collect. So less hours & money wasted on the phone.

**Official Response from Samantha van Putten:**

> Hello Murdo. Thank you for your review! We do offer a Low Credit notification service. You are welcome to send me a mail with your credit limit threshold (hello@bulksms.com) and I'll happily set it up for you.

  ### 8. Texting service works great.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2020

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

The ease of using BulkSMS.  Easy to send out texts, easy to sign up.  Decently priced. We use Bulk SMS with our case management system to connect with our clients.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

When we were first starting, we were having some trouble getting the service to work with a third party.  I reached out a couple of times to their customer service and never heard back from them.  We ended up trouble shooting on our own and got it working but the lack of follow up was concerning.

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

Get specific instructions from software company on how to connect the two services.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are using Bulk SMS to connect with clients through our case management system. The ability to text our clients their appointment times and to get confirmations back from them.  Also to send reminders and other case-related information to our clients is so convenient.

  ### 9. Really fast messages, innovative ways are being implemented with messages.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dimitris A. | Principal, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2022

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

My credits do not need renewal , and don't get erased after not being used.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

I cannot send messages with Greek characters (letters) which is my language, without being charged an extreme price.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am not sure about that, but seems like they are constantly improving their service.

  ### 10. It just works!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Motion Pictures and Film | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 23, 2022

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

We're a talent agency with lots of talent on our books that we need to keep up to date. We can send an SMS to all booked talent at once to let them know what's happening with wardrobe and shoot days. This saves us precious time when we have lots of jobs confirmed. We also know that the talent gets the info that they need.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

I can't think of anything, it does what we need it to.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's handy to reach more than one person at a time. We sometimes have up to 20 people needed at a single shoot, so sending out the info just once saves us lots of time and lets me focus on new briefs.

  ### 11. Great Service and Integrating solutions

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2022

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

The functionality to upload a file with the  SMS Templates from our SQL Server on reqeust. This allows non-Webhook processes like TSQL to process the file and upload it to BulkSMS. 

The API is handy when having a process that needs to send SMSs based on certain trigers

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

The difficulty of implementing the API to Python. From the documentation, I could not find any Python Related Syntax or assistance. If there is a few more languages to see how the API is being implemented would be useful for developers with less experience

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

An excellent option with fair pricing that can help your business. If you have a developer who can integrate bulk SMS with your systems and create seamless processes

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sending OTP and Confirmation SMS.  
We are using BulkSMS for Notifications of critical SQL Server Tasks.
Promotions SMS Campaigns to our business base.
Integration with existing processes that are in place.

  ### 13. Good service. Bit pricier.

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amir T. | Booking and scheduling coordinator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2022

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Easy to use/recharge. The onboarding process was very clean and easy. They provide API integration as well which works with most of the systems. As compared to other companies in the market I would say they are easy to work with.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

Their pricing is a bit on the expensive side as compared to local competitors in UAE. Might be all right in the UK but not here. The website can be improved as there is a login bug.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is much easier to share schedules and job information with the workforce. Saves a lot of administration time day-to-day. Great with delivery as well no delays faced.

  ### 14. Flexible and reliable

The key to an SMS delivery service is the reliability of delivery and BulkSMS has that. It is also user-friendly and flexible to use

Nothing :) It is good as it is. Perhaps a  bit cheaper I wouldn't mind :)

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Templates and importing a mass selection of contacts. Feedback on whether sms's were delivered succesfully. Easy to use and to teach others.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

Not having different user profiles on one account. I know it is possible to better automate this process using an API, but we don't have that skillset inhouse here. We still manually load our contacts and select the participants and templates.

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

If you have multiple participants you need to reach and are unsure if they have smart phones - reaching them via SMS is a safe way to get to them. BulkSMS is great for this as you can send prepopulated and customized templates.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are sending out test results to participants and reminding them to come in for follow up visits. We have hundreds or thousands of notifications that need to go out. Bulksms helps us do this.

**Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Bulk SMS is the fastest and most convenient way to reach our beneficiaries. I love how we can send short and straightforward workshop reminders. I also love the new added mobigram feature as it allows us to send posters and newsletters. 

User friendly.

Beneficiaries who do not have access to the internet receive reminders.

The word count. 
Easier to use with a PC and not a cell phone.

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

I like the fact you can buy bulk credits that get applied toward each SMS sent to customers directly from our website. I also like that customers feel like we are updating them along the way through their post-purchase process by providing order confirmation, shipping confirmation and delivery notices via text message.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

The least helpful aspect is that you cannot easily download your SMS records list from the system. It would be better to have an option where a user can download the historical SMS messages sent. We can then transmit the data to our shopping cart platform to reach out to customers for promotions and marketing efforts.

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

BulkSMS is a great system to send bulk SMS messages to your lists with easy to use admin panel, upload feature and credit buying feature via credit card, which instantly post to your account balance. We use it for customer purchases, follow ups and direct communication between our support staff.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We can keep an open line of communication and allow them to know in real-time the status of their orders. The problem BulkSMS solves is the ability to keep customers satisfied without having to reach out directly. Reliable SMS messaging is a very important part of our customer work flow.

**Reviewed by:** Kristian Z. | Information Technology Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

It is a very cost effective solution. We did investigate a number of different SMS providers and the pricing was extremely favourable compared to other solutions that we looked at. We needed a solution that was flexible and that worked globally, as we are a multi-national company. Another advantage of Bulk SMS was the simplicity of the initial setup. When we first set up and integrated Bulk SMS into our systems, it was surprising how quickly we were able to get it all working with our existing systems. Bulk SMS is a great set and forget system, we rarely if ever have to log into our management account to perform any changes.

Nothing that I can think of at the moment. The system has been highly reliable for us.

The product has very specific carrier settings, with no guarantee of consistent delivery.  I have found that there needs to be extensive tuning, in order for the product to work efficiently.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Religious Institutions | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

This is the easiest of the bulk sms programs I have ever used.  It is so easy that I have been able to convince a number of other companies to convert; by simply showing them the program on my laptop.
The ability to import the contact list from other sources, using the .CSV or Excel functions, make porting from other programs very attractive.
The costing is competitive and is a strong selling point.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

There is very little to dislike.  Once you get used to the way the application works and realize how easy it is to use, then there is nothing that to dislike concerning the program.
The lack of a cloud based application allowing us to have a central contact database to share amongst the organizations employees

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

Simply the easiest and most productive use of your time to have this program in your organization;  the costing benfits help enormously as well.

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to communicate urgent messages with all the members in our organization by making use of the templates facility and the group facility under contacts.  This has saved us an enormous amount of time as we do not have to send individual messages singly.  The organization benefits through more efficient use of employee time and frees them up to be involved in other projects / tasks.

**Official Response from Shereen Griebenow:**

> Hello! Thank you for the great review. We are so glad to hear that you find our platform user-friendly, and that it helps with efficiency in your organisation.

  ### 48. Simple, easy to use, fast and reliable SMS service

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 22, 2021

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

This is a really useful service; when we need to contact our mobile phone estate with a question, or a prompt, we can do this in minutes. It tells you as you compose your message whether it will use one or more credits so you know how much you are being charged instantly and can make a decision accordingly. It is an incredibly flexible service allowing you to send an SMS from desktop, from your phone or through an app. Analysis of who has received your message and when they have been delivered is immediately available and downloadable in excel or csv files which make it very easy to interrogate and analyse. Customer services have also been really helpful when I wanted to raise the limit on the number of SMS we could send.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

I don't really have particular complaints, but maybe:
- Having to format the data into delimited text files
- The fact that when you want download a file, the link is practically the same colour as the text so it doesn't look clickable
- I would like to be able to arrange the information in the Contacts more usefully, to arrange by customer or campaign, not just alphabetically by file name?
- This is an SMS-related comment, rather than related to BulkSMS, but even though we pre-warn employees/customers etc that they will be receiving an SMS from us, a large number still expect it to be a scam

**What problems is BulkSMS.com solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Management of company mobile phone estate
Company reminders
Company alerts

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Paul M. | Senior Network Engineer, Computer Networking, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 02, 2020

**What do you like best about BulkSMS.com?**

Beyond the price, the service is easy to use, recharge, and very reliable. I have been using them for about 10 years now without a glitch. Really there is not a log more to say. The interface is easy to use. The price per message is reasonable.

**What do you dislike about BulkSMS.com?**

The only compliant I have is the lack of a US based payment provider. At times we have to let our card provider know the charge is ok since it is international. Beyond that, there is nothing negative to say about it.

**Recommendations to others considering BulkSMS.com:**

If you need a simple to use, cheap, and reliable service BulkSMS is your answer. There are no frills included, but plenty of functionality for what it is meant to be used for.

We use BulkSMS to get message from PRTG to staff cell phone about network outages.
