OneSignal’s omnichannel customer engagement platform offers push notifications, email, in-app messages, and SMS. OneSignal’s automated customer Journeys and one-off campaigns allow users to create messaging strategies that convert, inform, and retain audiences, with little to no coding required for setup.
I think One Signal is very well suited for mobile app owners who want to be in touch with their user base more easily by sending push notifications and in-app messages. I'm not sure how well that works for SMS messaging as I haven't yet tried it. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it if your in-apps are very rare.

One thing we really like is getting OTPs and payment alerts through messaging bots. Unlike SMS, it’s free for us, secure, and users like it. It’s a way to send codes and notifications without extra costs. These messages are always right there for the user, easy to access on their phone.

Is still in development: we know OneSignal is still in development and sometimes it takes longer to create or fulfill certain features.
Payment: payment menu is not at the glance, [and] is just difficult sometimes to find -it is a minor issue.
Send to certain custom segments through specific OneSignal IDs; you can do it though API doing a GET call with tools like Postman. If this can be done from OneSignal it would be great.

We’ll keep using Protectimus. Been using it for years, no real issues, it just works. Covers what we need, different setups, mgmt, logs, all that. OTP via bots is really handy and saves us money. Support’s fine, they reply when needed. Overall, it does the job, so we’ll keep it.
I give an 8 in this question mainly for 2 reasons: the products even if they look like complete and are highly customizable and usable, they are still missing some logical features. For example, send messages to a list of users - now days you can do it with postman and get calls. A second example is App messaging that is still in development and has many opportunities.

I gave 10 points for their solution because the GUI got a fresh update and it’s really easy to use now. The old one had some annoying limitations, but the new layout is much more intuitive. On mobile it works good too. Managing relations between tokens, users, and resources is way smoother now.
Their customer support has been top-notch. They are able to assist you in getting through any problems that you may have and respond in a very timely manner. I've dealt with them on 4-5 instances over the years and my issues were always resolved within a matter of a few business days.

In my opinion, OneSignal documentation / API is more friendly [than] Firebase. Maybe because Firebase is already "too big," but OneSignal is focused on one solution that giving our notification through to our customer. In that case, OneSignal is chosen by our company. Several years after that, Firebase announced it supported [the] iOs platform too but our company already using OneSignal to our notification provider.

We checked a few options before picking Protectimus. We looked at SafeNet Auth Management, Duo, and using Google Authenticator with our own backend. SafeNet felt really old-school — UI looks dated and the system’s kinda tricky to run & maintain. Duo’s solid, but it’s pricey and, more importantly, doesn’t offer full on-prem deployment. We need on-prem to handle auth for our employees on our own infra, so that was a dealbreaker. Google Authenticator is popular & free, but it’s just a client for generating OTPs — all the user mgmt, token handling, and policies would be on us.Protectimus gives all that out of the box. We can manage users & tokens centrally, set auth policies, and support multiple channels. That flexibility made it the best fit for our setup.
