Frequently Asked Questions about the comparison between Twilio and LabsMobile

The main difference is the price of the SMS messages. In most destinations LabsMobile offers a price that is 50% cheaper or more!

The main difference is the price of SMS messages.In most destinations LabsMobile offers a price that is 50% cheaper or more!

In addition LabsMobile offers a complete SMS platform and support by chat and ticketing always available.

However, Twilio has a multi-channel connectivity and requires API integration.

LabsMobile has specialized in the SMS channel and for more than 15 years has been selecting the best value for money in its SMS routes. We guarantee the maximum reliability at the best cost.

In addition, in some countries we have local routes that improve the SMS price for messages sent to the sender's country.

Check out our SMS prices and compare.

The main reasons for this are:

  • - Substantial savings in the cost of SMS campaigns and mailings.
  • - Complete web platform at no cost and without the need for API integration.
  • - A close, expert and always available support for any case or request.

In LabsMobile is easy: you only pay for the SMS sent. There is no other cost (no registration, no maintenance, no monthly, etc.).

But in Twilio there are operator fees per message, per message received, for mandatory virtual numbers and for other features such as link shortening or automation flow among many others.

Because of all these extra charges and the high cost per SMS, in Twilio the billing is much higher, complex and unpredictable.

Our standard support service for all our customers includes a live Chat (and Whatsapp) on working days. And a Customer Service (email, form and ticketing) always available.

Support is complemented with several online resources such as: Videotutorials, Knowledge Base, Blog, Solutions by industry, etc.

We also offer premium support for those large volume accounts that have direct contact with a manager as an interlocturor. As well as training, advice and priority in cases and consultations. More information here.

Migrating or switching to LabsMobile is very easy. Follow these steps:

  • 1. Create here an account on LabsMobile.
  • 2. Consult our API documentation and make some changes to the URL, authentication and parameters. If you have any doubts, ask our technicians.
  • 3. Perform your first tests in simulated mode. Request credits for the first tests of your integration.

Take advantage of our rates and platform to improve your SMS communication.
