User Testimonials
	Bandwidth	Sinch
Likelihood to Recommend	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sinch Sinch is well suited if you believe communication is the solution to 99% of problems in this world. Lack of communication builds issues that can easily be avoided with clear and transparent communication. Emails/ in-app notifications, the not immediate and always causes a delay since it depends on the user's internet connection. On the other hand, SMS is a service, which reaches every individual immediately and without fail. Therefore, Sinch shall be utilised by every company to make sure immediate communication is enabled.

Pros	Bandwidth Bandwidth has great customer service. They are all friendly and super helpful. They are innovative and constantly updating their APIs, UIs, and products they offer. Their UI and API are user friendly and intuitive. Incentivized Tamara Foster Telecom Manager Read full review	Sinch Performance Support SMS Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
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. Incentivized Chris Horne CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	Sinch Improved UI for easier navigation to the owned short codes and status of their certification. List of carrier requirements for certification (i.e. keywords). Language and character do's and don't's for specific routes. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sinch mBlox compares in SLA and QoS to other top tier aggregators. We interconnect with several vendors who provide wholesale enterprise level SMS and MMS services like mBlox, and they all compare around the same. Quality of service is key, and we've found them to be no greater, and no worse than their competitors. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
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.
