Text Message Services
Text messaging has become a very popular communications technique, particularly among young adults. This simple means of communicating can be easily adapted by businesses and organizations that need to maintain instant contact with its membership or community.
Sending alerts to company or government employees can now be accomplished without interrupting their work. Obtaining feedback and acknowledgement of the message from these individuals can now be automated.
Text messaging community members during an emergency can also be accomplished using this technique.
Database Systems Corp. (DSC) provides computer telephony solutions to customers throughout the world. DSC has developed computer products for call processing centers. These products include phone systems and call handling applications using software developed inhouse.
DSC has developed sophisticated IVR (Interactive Voice Response) phone answering systems. DSC also provides IVR and voice message broadcast services.
What Is Text Messaging?
Text messaging, or texting is the common term for the sending of "short" (160 characters or fewer, including spaces, newer phones can hold up to 20 pages of 160 characters) text messages from mobile phones using the Short Message Service (SMS).
It is available on most digital mobile phones and some personal digital assistants with on-board wireless telecommunications.
Mixing text messages and voice messages can now be accomplished. Messages can be sent to all of your clients or to a select group of vendors. Emergency text messages can be delivered to community members in the event of a disaster that affects a large number of individuals.
