Learn the four main qualities that make Simplewire the ideal wireless messaging solution.

Several key features separate Simplewire from its competition, making it ideal for customers of all sizes requiring a quick, complete and seamless solution for their wireless messaging needs. In doing so, they ensure that Simplewire will continue to offer developers, businesses, and telecommunications carriers solutions unavailable through its competitors.

With challenges that intricately intertwine, as they do in the wireless application arena, a comprehensive solution is far superior to a partial or piecemeal solution. Simplewire offers a complete suite of products, addressing the full spectrum of difficulties with wireless messaging, each of which is itself comprehensive in its features and accompanying support. Our products and services consolidate the fragmented wireless messaging industry, handle all aspects of the complex messaging process, and allow the simple integration that businesses and developers demand.

This enables Simplewire to offer a full spectrum of shrink-wrapped and customized solutions to developers, telecommunications carriers and businesses of all sizes and types. This lies in sharp contrast to its competitors, who offer products which solve only one or two of the problems involved in wireless messaging, or products which offer only a partial set of the desired features.

The wireless industry is a complicated one, which actually consists of several disparate niches. There is WAP (Wireless Application Protocol), which truly deals with user initiated interactive services, analogous to the world wide web for mobile devices. Then there is the PDA market, which also consists mostly of technology allowing users to initiate requests and “pull” information to the device. Then, there is the wireless messaging niche. This niche involves “pushing” information and alerts to and from devices, and consists of SMS, EMS, MMS and wireless instant messaging technologies.

Simplewire is focused on the wireless messaging aspect of the wireless market. As such, its distinguishes itself from hundreds of companies who focus more heavily on the WAP and PDA markets. This balance between maintaining a tight focus on one aspect of the market, while offering a comprehensive solution in that area, is what makes Simplewire a unique company which offers the optimal solution to the widest array of customers.

Because many competitors cannot offer a complete solution, they turn to third-party vendors in order to fill in the gaps. This leads to dependence, and an inability to quickly adapt to new changes. Simplewire has written all of its code from scratch, including its server, interface implementations, and all of its software. This is a direct reflection of its unique background and expertise in the dual areas of software development and wireless technology, which many of its competitors lack. Simplewire’s autonomy offers a crucial advantage in two areas: reliability and versatility.

  • Reliable - Because Simplewire depends on no outside parties, other than the telecommunications carriers themselves, it has fulfilled, and continues to offer a Service Level Agreement of 99.999% uptime. This SLA is something that very few other companies in the market offer. Since they depend on the uptime of several other parties, they have multiple points of failure, and cannot be as certain that service will be maintained reliably.
  • Versatile - Since Simplewire has written all of its own code, and based its core server on a modular services model, its foundation is extremely adaptable and can be easily customized to meet customers’ needs. This adaptability is what will allow it to remain on the cutting edge of the wireless industry. It is what allows Simplewire to work compatibly with other products. It is also what enables Simplewire to offer customized solutions to an array of customers. Other benefits of this adaptability include preparation for upcoming challenges in the industry, such as mobile number portability and network interconnect fees. Meanwhile, Simplewire’s competitors for the most part have not built their solutions from scratch. Therefore, they are unable to adapt to new technologies, interoperate with such a wide spectrum of products, or offer the types of customized solutions available through Simplewire.

Customers demand efficiency and simplicity in their wireless initiatives. Simplewire has tailored its products and customer services to meet these demands. Because of its background in development, its team knows the needs of developers and offers the simplest means of integrating wireless messaging capabilities.

The most tangible reflection of this principle lies in Simplewire’s client side software, in the form of its SMS Software Development Kit, which integrates into applications more easily than any product offered by its competitors. With just a few lines of code and a few minutes of development necessary, few companies can compete with Simplewire for ease of implementation.

This is also reflected in the signup process. The Simplewire Developer Program allows quick creation of an account via Simplewire’s website and tools to test the application free of charge at any time. Billing is also available in an easy-to-use format via the website. Customers can come to the website, signup, license, pay, and begin sending messages all in a matter of minutes. Furthermore, online interfaces are provided for account management, setting a new standard for customer service in the wireless messaging industry. No competitor offers such a simple and quick process to fully enable wireless messaging.
