SMS in NMS
Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2011 8:31 am
Hi all.
I've been playing with the idea of incorporating sending SMS messages through NMS. It shouldn't be to hard of a task, but I do think I need some help and input.
First of all, I think I will use www.bulksms.com for sending sms. They have good prices and an API which is easy to work with. It supplies what I need. Documentation can be found here: http://www.bulksms.com/int/docs/eapi/.
My thought is that when setting up a new message, the user chooses(with a radiobutton) wether it should be an email or an sms.
In the backend, it must also be possible to add phonenumbers for the users, both via the backend and also through the frontend forms supplied.
This should give basic functionality. Does anyone think this is a good idea, or are there other modules which can serve me and my customers needs? Have looked at CGSMS, but this doesn't support BulkSMS and the other two providers does not support international texts...
Any and all comments are welcome!
