Hi all,
Looking for some advice for a cheaper Twilio alternative. For context,
I developed a site for my family that’s in medicine, it texts her patients their daily dose of whatever their protocol is set to on her website. It’s been a staple with her patients now as the doses can be a lot to remember. We are currently using twilio, but with hundreds of patients each getting texts every day, the cost is starting to add up.
I bought an android phone, and an extra phone plan, and set up an SMS gateway there but got banned from the mobile provider after a day of sending the text alerts. Was optimistic about that plan and the cost savings, did not expect such a rapid ban like that.
Any way I can keep the cost down for this that isn’t Twilio?
SIGNL4 can be considered as an alternative to Twilio. It’s a mobile alerting platform. Typically there are other use cases, it’s primarily focused on incident management and team communication, but it could potentially be used for sending text alerts or push notifications to patients as well. I guess it also depends on your exact budget and how old the patients are as they would need to download an app.
