    Additional DetailsDexatel uses a pay-as-you-go pricing model for all messaging channels, including SMS, WhatsApp, Viber, RCS, Telegram, and Voice. There are no sign-up fees or monthly subscriptions. Country-based rates: Message prices vary by the destination country. Volume discounts: The more messages you send, the lower your per-message cost. Fair billing: You only pay for successfully delivered messages. Flexible payments: Pay by credit card, PayPal, or bank transfer without stored payment details. To estimate costs, use Dexatel’s online pricing calculator on Dexatel's website. Select the country (or countries) where you’ll be sending messages and the system will show an approximate price per message based on location and volume. Final costs depend on recipients’ countries and monthly volume with loyalty benefits available for long-term customers.

    Bandwidth
    Bandwidth covers the majority of areas where we had customers. However, there are still some areas we would have like to see them cover for calls. They cover more areas than our other carriers, but they did surprise us from time to time by an inability to be able to deliver call transport.

    Cons
    Bandwidth
    • Their dashboard is lacking. We would love to see some additional graphing components, live traffic views, etc.
    • Their E911 infrastructure is still separate, making things a bit complex to provision endpoints and manage them.
    • SMS/MMS is a little behind competitors like Twilio, but still usable and very reliable.

    Bandwidth
    Their pricing is tough to beat, the reliability is great. And then add a few more positive things, like the tools and customer support, and that makes it a no-brainer.

    Return on Investment
    Bandwidth
    • We found Bandwidth to be very easy to work with and they grew as we grew. Their pricing was very competitive and they were always willing to take another look at their pricing for us.
