Okay, what does Twilio even do?:

> Twilio makes sending and receiving SMS easy.

I haven’t had hardship with this yet. But if I do encounter difficulties with sending and receiving and SMS/MMS, I’ll maybe evaluate Twilio against other solutions in this space. Like perhaps Sendo, or Noteify, or MessagePanda, or Zipner, or Chaticus, or SeaMuS, or EZ-Burst, or Tapzin, or Pokeify, or HeyYou, or AllYall, or Beepzor, or PickleTickle, or Beepidon, or Pagematix, or WhizSend, or SendWiz, or Globetweeter, or GoatNote, or whomever else will make it easy in sending unsolicited mass messages about their car’s extended warranty expiring.

They're a pretty minimalist system for sending a lot of SMS messages really quickly. Like, I tested them briefly at my last company to build an emergency notification system for our business continuity plan. For my purposes, they were too minimalist and I ended up going with a service that was a little more user-friendly since I needed managers and executives to use the system for their respective branches.
