When bulk SMS’s are sent through service providers or other bulk SMS resellers, companies have to part with their client mobile numbers and important contacts. SMS’s have to be sent using the Internet. However, in SMS Connexion - Desktop Client, the Internet is not required. Information is collected from your local data store and the transmissions is controlled within the user's premises, ensuring data privacy.

The speed of sending SMS is practically 400 - 500 in an hour depending on the network range where the GSM Modem is located.

SMS ConneXion is available in various flavours. There are two editions available for any industry. They are the Lite version and the Advanced version . For industry specific and applications catering to a particular function we have the SMS Voting System, SMS Quiz System, SMS Wall, SMS M2M and the SMS SDK. Contact us for further details.

Currently SMS ConneXion can collate information from Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Access, Oracle and Microsoft SQL. Every future version will support one or more additional data stores. The forthcoming release will connect to Tally and Foxpro data stores.

SMS ConneXion is a Windows Desktop application that runs on a single computer / desktop. The only hardware required additionally is a GSM Modem or a GSM Mobiel phone connected to the desktop. This GSM Modem will have a GSM SIM card within and will facilitate the actual sending and receiving of SMS.

A GSM modem is a device which uses GSM mobile network for data transmission. It does not use conventional telephone line, but uses a SIM card similar to the ones used in a GSM mobile phone like Nokia, Samsung, LG or others. A GSM modem can be purchased from the local or international market. Some service providers like Airtel provide GSM modem at lucrative schemes if their GSM card is used. SMS ConneXion is thoroughly tested with Nokia 30 and Nokia 32 Terminal simulators which are GSM modems.

Yes, you need to purchase a GSM Modem / Mobile Phone. A computer connected to a GSM Modem / Mobile Phone having a SIM Card facilitates the sending and receiving of SMS. SMS Connexion is thoroughly tested over Nokia 30, Nokia 32 GSM Modem.

Ideally any GSM device with any one of the following modes of connectivity: Data Cable, Infrared or Bluetooth will be detected by SMS ConneXion and you may send / receive SMS. But the with the innumerable devices being released every day, it is practically impossible to guarantee that every device is tested for SMS ConneXion compatibility. However, in the future we will put up a list of GSM devices against which SMS ConneXion has been tested in our development center.

The rate of each SMS is the rate specified in the scheme for the SIM card purchased by you. e.g If you have opted for a plan that sends out SMS @ 50 paisa, then you will be charged 50 paisa for each SMS.

Yes, SMS ConneXion facilitates two-way communication. You can receive messages which will be saved in your Inbox. Moreover you can receive both audio and visual alerts for each incoming message.

SMS ConneXion facilitates delivery reports. As soon as a delivery report is received for a message that has been sent, SMS ConneXion will change the status of the message from Sent to Delivered. This is also indicated by a change in icon to easily identify messages that have been delivered.

However, you have to keep in mind that the delivery reports are not received immediately when messages are sent in large quantities. This is not a limitation of SMS ConneXion, but the mobile networks have a low priority on the network when transmitting delivery reports. Many a time, the message is delivered, but the delivery report is never received.

Every SMS that is created will be stored in the Outbox initially. On starting transmission each SMS will be picked up from the Outbox, and then transferred to the Sent Items. If a message is seen in the Sent Items, it indicates that the message has been sent to the GSM operator and your message is further delivered by them.

Not at all, this means that SMS ConneXion has not received the confirmation of the message delivery. In most cases during our test cycles, we have noticed that the message is always delivered (100 % results) but the delivery report is not always received.

Yes, the application should be running if you want the scheduled messages to be created at a particular time. You may however minimise the application to the tray and this will not hamper the application from creating the scheduled messages. The transmission mode need not necessarily be on for generating the schedule messages.
