[Freeswitch-users] Anyone doing SMS for their end users?

there are only few countries where you can buy a virtual number that
is able to receive both SMS and voice calls. So, we ended up with a
bunch of Yeastar GSM gateways with SIM cards in them. The gateways are
quite stable, and the only issue is that if an SMS starts with a
smiley, you get an empty message.

We're receiving the SMS from those gateways via their Asterisk API,
and insert them into a Redis queue. Then, there's a dispatcher that
reads the queue and forwards the messages depending on the user's
follow-me status: it can be sent to a Telegram messenger, or as a new
SMS to the user's mobile phone.  Then there's a web app where the user
can see the messages and reply to them.

We use http://www.inetworx.ch/ for outbound SMS. They allow setting
the sender's number, and that is very handy in this scenario.

We use a local copy of Notifica bot for sending messages to Telegram:

it as open-source, but hasn't yet found the time for it:
