SAN DIEGO, CA, USA – July 22, 2014
Bulletin, a leading provider of cloud-based mobile messaging Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), today announced the expansion of its enterprise messaging suite to include the latest OTT (instant messaging over TCP)-to-SMS technology, Messenger Chat. The platform’s Messenger Chat feature enables customers across a wide range of industries to enhance internal, cross-functional communications within their organization for more timely and efficient correspondence.
Messenger Chat can be used via the website, Android and iOS smartphone apps, and feature phones using simple SMS.
