TruePush is forever-free push notification company for both web and mobile. Bloggers, Marketer, App owners & developers from varied industries including Media houses and E-Commerce websites are sending millions of notifications every day. TruePush has advanced features like segmentation (pre-defined and custom segments), and triggers & templates that make it a user-friendly tool.
We have promotions that we want to tell our members or a specific subset of them like they have a chance of winning a raffle. We use Kumulos to fire off the message and notification. Our members get it in their app and we can tell how many of them received it. We can also use the messages to direct them to specific web pages if we want to give them more information. We also use Kumulos to send announcements about things that are happening around the resort. Since we are located near the airport, when heads of state arrive, there are times that the roads are closed to allow them to pass. We use Kumulos to fire off notifications early enough that they know to avoid the area at a particular time. Where it doesn't do as well is when you need the notifications to be received immediately. Since the notifications pass through the Google/Apple network, it may take time to arrive. Sometimes you get it quick, sometimes you don't. So if timeliness is critical, it won't work as well. Also if you're sending to a lot of people, the rollout of the messages may take longer.
Kumulos is doing everything we need and more. The cost is also very reasonable. It has cut down our need for SMS and has lowered our OPEX because of this. We also love the analytics that it provides and it gives us insight into the usage and engagement of our app.
Kumulos is just much easier to install, configure, and set up. Ongoing running costs are much much lower, especially because we don't need the constant support of a developer to complete day-to-day tasks. Other systems required a lot of technical support, not just in the setup but also in the ongoing operation.
I had more than 100k subscribers on my blog with another company but their paid plans were too expensive for a blog like mine. It has a very large audience base and most of the audience is from India. So I searched for various alternatives (at that time i think Truepush was not launched) and find some good one which had comparatively cheaper plan with good service but within a year my subscriber base grown to 5 times of what it was with a previous company. That plan too become very expensive as the earning was not same every month due to changes in google algorithms and various other reasons. However it was very important to help students so I started searching for other alternatives. After trying many push providers, I was not happy with any of them. Then I ended my search when I found Truepush. After testing, checking their easy to use dashboard, analytics, push delivery and other functions, it took me just 10 minutes to decide that I was moving my Job Alert blog to Truepush. However there were definitely some doubts and some fears too as I had approximately 500k subscribers at that time. After chatting with Ravi (Co Founder Truepush) I felt confident and moved my blog. Now after two months of use, I can definitely say that I made the right decision as I never had any issue. The team at Truepush is always available to help me if I have any doubt. Thanks a lot to the team at Truepush for providing such an amazing product.
