Introduction.
Our SMS (Short Message Service) system has been developed to provide an easy, reliable
and cost effective way to send mobile Text Messages from a PC.
Initially developed for use in our own software applications, we have had several
enquiries asking if we could provide the service to other people as either a standalone
PC based message system, or for integration into their existing programs.
As a result we are currently putting the finishing touches to 2 new products;
EaziSMS Desktop and eaziSMS Developer.
Some typical uses include Customer notifications - "your car is ready for collection",
as an alternative to paging staff - "Please contact the sales office", or for General
Reminders, News, and Announcements.
EaziSMS Desktop is a simple program that, once installed, allows
you to send text messages direct from your PC to a mobile phone. This is great for
anyone who wants to send a message but doesn't need the facility to receive (Although
you can specify that replies are routed to your actual mobile phone).
The benefits of eaziSMS Desktop include;
- Quicker and easier to type a message on a keyboard than via a mobile. (Particularly
useful for people with a visual impairment or that have difficulty manipulating
small mobile buttons.)
- Cost effective - next to email, which is not always an option, text messaging is
an extremely cost effective alternative to a personal call by the time you have
added your labour time/cost to the call charges.
- Easy to monitor sent messages to combat staff misuse.
eaziSMS Developer is a simple .Net Web-Service that can be called
from either PC or Web based applications. It exposes 2 Public methods; the first
providing user authentication and account credit balance functions, and the second
providing the actual message transmission.
Both eaziSMS Desktop and Developer operate on a pay-as-you-go basis. You purchase
blocks of credit and the system lets you know when you are getting close to your
specified re-order level.
You can have multiple users assigned to your account and our gateways detailed logging
system provides a usage statement so you can track who sent what to who and when.
These systems are scheduled for launch in January 2008, but in the meantime if you
are interested in either of these products, please contact us on 01279 873440 or
