Address Book
directSMS' Web 2 SMS service portal comes complete with email like address book functionality. Instead of having to enter a mobile number to send your message, you can define a contact or a group (distribution list) of mobiles, much in the same way as you would use an email client like Outlook, Lotus Notes or Hotmail.

Bulk SMS
Bulk SMS is a very useful tool when trying to reach a large group of people in a small amount of time. Combined with the address book functionality, it can be used to effectively communicate with a large group of prospects, customers, or roaming workforce in a matter of seconds.
Scheduled SMS
Need to send off that SMS message at a certain time in the future? Why not use our SMS scheduler? Scheduled SMS are handy for sending out those reminders or greetings at some time in the future. This feature allows you to set and forget. Great for bill reminders, birthday wishes, regular meeting reminders, seasons greetings or new product/service launches.
