User Testimonials
	MessageMedia SMS	Vonage Communications APIs
Likelihood to Recommend	Constant feedback when issues arise, wonderful Account Manager. Incentivized BS Brian Strauch Project Manager Read full review	While there are likely a variety of scenarios that would work well with Vonage [Communications APIs (formerly Nexmo)], implementations that need transactional message and response actions are a great fit. Our experience with transactional messaging has been really good and we are continuing to look at opportunities to expand our usage of this part of their service.

Pros	Customer service. Promptness. Value. Incentivized BS Brian Strauch Project Manager Read full review	I like the delivery speed, it's very instantaneous. As soon as the delivery status changes on the website, the message gets delivered. The rates are also cheap and affordable. The accuracy of the services and the non-stop supportive team. Simple API, easy to integrate with existing notification functionality in your Laravel apps. Ease of implementation. We needed less than one month to go live. Incentivized Guillermo Villamizar Jefe de Productos Financieros Read full review
Cons	Technical information availability. Incentivized BS Brian Strauch Project Manager Read full review	Written documentation and discovery could be a lot better. ED Eric Doty CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	The overall usability of Vonage [Communications APIs (formerly Nexmo)] system for message delivery is sufficient for our implementation. Some improvements and additional reporting options in the account administration interface would increase our utilization of the post-delivery data further in order to provide further value-added features for our clients. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	The teams we have dealt with have been knowledgeable, but early interactions with the tech support team experienced some slowness in response. Once we had a dedicated account manager assigned to our partnership, the level of interaction and support with the appropriate teams at Vonage increased. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No vendor we compared met our needs like MessageMedia. Incentivized BS Brian Strauch Project Manager Read full review	Nexmo is the best platform in the industry for sure. We don't use all the features that the API provides but we are really satisfied with the ones we use. We are sure this is the best solution in the market if you need to solve the communication in real time with your customers. When we have to build a new website we are going to support the solution with Nexmo. Incentivized Guillermo Villamizar Jefe de Productos Financieros Read full review
Return on Investment	Appreciation from recipients. Confirmation of delivery to staff. Incentivized BS Brian Strauch Project Manager Read full review	Allowed us to go to market faster (positive). Greatly limits our claim to quality as the ceiling on video quality is lower than other platforms (negative). ED Eric Doty CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review
