Beating Twilio on either point is setting a rather low bar for comparison. Neither are Twilio’s strong suit, imho. Not saying Twilio is bad, but they are certainly not cheap or rock solid reliable.
- EGreg 9y agoWho would you recommend over them?
- jsjohnst 9y agoDepends on needs. If great documentation and easy to use APIs are important, then I’d recommend a different provider over one for price / reliability. Also depends what world markets you are focused on too. One other major variance is if you need MMS or short code support.
- epicide 9y agoSo which would you recommend for documentation and which would you recommend for price?
- jsjohnst 9y agoDocumentation / tooling would probably be Twilio. Provider based on price depends on how heavily you use US vs World, and if it's SMS (and/or MMS needed) or Voice or both and what volume you are operating at. For pure SMS with a balanced mix of domestic and international, I would probably suggest AWS Pinpoint at this point. Their international rates compared to Twilio are fantastic for all the locations I spot checked.
