We're in the middle of a new project that makes heavy use of PUSH notifications. We've looked into all the possibilities and have concluded that our best option is GCM [0] (which recently added iOS support), plus a custom manager with node-gcm [1]. That works best for us (pricing, etc), but Ionic also has an extremely easy to setup push service [2], that'll be free during alpha. Another option is pushwoosh or building your backend with Parse (also does push)... Hope it helps [0] https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/gcm https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/gcm [1] https://github.com/ToothlessGear/node-gcm https://github.com/ToothlessGear/node-gcm [2] https://apps.ionic.io/landing/push https://apps.ionic.io/landing/push
