Ask HN: Is Plivo Dead?
I tried to sign up but it failed.
I also sent them emails but there was no response.
Does anyone know if Plivo is dead? Are they signing up new customers?
Any suggested alternatives to Plivo? Twilio is too costly for our business.

- thiago_fm 3y agoGreat product. Hope you folks do well. Twilio sucks.
- joshxyz 3y agoyes it became expensive too. there is postmark, messagebird, and mailersend for me.
- rabidonrails 3y agoYes, there are a bunch of alternatives but it would help if you could let us know which services you're looking for. Twilio is comprised of MANY different services and there are other companies that are focused on specific verticals. But, assuming you're thinking mostly voice/sms, here are a few: - Signalwire - Infobip - Sinch - Commio - intelepeer
- simantel 3y agoThey seem pretty alive based on Twitter activity and updates on their status page (https://status.plivo.com/ https://status.plivo.com/). Not sure about your signup issue, but their support team is probably running a little leaner this week between Christmas and New Year's.
