Overall Satisfaction with MessageBird
We use MessageBird to send SMS notifications to our users when they interact with our SaaS. We built a service that interacts with MessageBird for SMS and with SendGrid for e-mails, so every time we need to send a notification, we can send it for both channels at the same time.
- SMS delivery
- Webhooks for delivery reports
- SMS pricing
- SMS authentication is pricey (like other players)
- Lack dedicated SMS phone numbers for Brazil
- SMS API
- Webhook reports
- Lower cost per message
- High SMS delivery rate
- Fast development
Twilio prices were much higher for our initial volume (30k SMS/month). But they have more APIs and more services if you need to integrate email, SMS, and other channels.
We didn't need those features, only basic SMS and email, so we kept each feature from one provider. Email from Sendgrid and SMS from MessageBird
