How UpsideSMS Messenger works

For the billing and authentication reasons each user requires an active and funded account on the SideWidnerSMS platform. As a provider of the TelecomSMS solution you can either signup new users or have them sign-up for accounts on their own. Once their accounts are active they can download and install the OutlookSMS application on their desktop. Once installed, OutlookSMS can be accessed from the existing toolbar or from the menu item.

Upon entering address information (number(s) in international format) and message users send the message in a familiar way – just like they send email.

The message is then securely relayed to the server (SideWinderSMS) where the user is authenticated, billed and numbers are verified. Messages are sent and in most cases received within 20-30 seconds.

If any recipient replies to the message the message is relayed directly to the original sender’s Outlook’s Inbox.
