I am curious if anyone on this list is doing SMS for their SIP end users, and if so, how. Which SIP providers are you using, how are you receiving and sending SMS to the outside world, and what SIP or chat client software are you using to facilitate this? Thank you, Kevin Long
I don't have many end users (using FreeSWITCH as our office PBX), but I've just started using Flowroute's SMS API, and it works well. I have possible future plans, but at the moment I have a PHP script that takes any SMS message received on any of our DID's and turns it into an email. Obviously the volume is low at the moment, so I just forward the message to the recipient, but eventually I want to build an email to SMS gateway. Read my earlier message on this list for how I am using this SMS API to send a text message when a voice mail is received, using a LUA script, mod_curl, and the Flowroute SMS API. -- Steve On Fri, Jun 17, 2016 at 12:43 PM, Kevin Long <kevin.long@haloprivacy.com> wrote:

I wrote an add-on app to FusionPBX ( https://github.com/fusionpbx/fusionpbx-apps/tree/master/sms) which works with flowroute, twilio and teli. It sends/receives the message and forwards it to the end point (tested with yealink phones). I also just recently submitted code for voicemail to sms with the same add-on. Wouldn't be hard to extend it to do sms to email, etc. So far it's working pretty good for me but it's still in limited use in my production environment.

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: https://storebot.me/bot/notifica_bot The author is going to publish it as open-source, but hasn't yet found the time for it: https://github.com/Benez/notifica_bot cheers, stanislav On Fri, Jun 17, 2016 at 9:43 PM, Kevin Long <kevin.long@haloprivacy.com> wrote:

Hey Kevin, we are. Assuming you're interested in blasting SMS out via API, there's a ton of providers out there for that. I think the biggest, in the US at least, should be Twilio [2] There are others, that are cheaper, though. For more complex scenarios, providers like TextIt [3] should be able to help you. They allow you to create complex flows. If you'd like a web-UI to help you reach many people in complex scenarios (polls, surveys, timing based curriculums, keyword-response auto-replies), we at engageSPARK [1] might be able to help you. Hope that gives you an idea of the spectrum, so you find the right tool for your job.
