Most communication systems look simple from the outside. A company sends messages, triggers reminders, or responds to customers on SMS, WhatsApp, Viber or whatever channel is popular in that region. The experience looks straightforward. The reality beneath it is anything but.

Educational institutions rely on clear, reliable communication to keep students, families, and staff informed. This includes a wide range of organizations such as early childhood centers, kindergartens, primary schools, secondary schools, higher secondary schools, colleges, universities, coaching centers, vocational institutes, and community programs.

The Hidden Cost of Channel Fragmentation

Your customers move seamlessly between messaging apps. WhatsApp for quick updates. SMS for one-time passwords and transactional alerts. Viber for regional preferences. Messenger for FAQs. To them, it is all one conversation.

Consumers today move fast. They discover products on social platforms, compare prices in seconds, and expect brands to meet them with relevant updates at the right moment. Across FMCG, beauty, retail, and D2C categories, one pattern is consistent. Brands that create simple, well timed touchpoints through messaging build stronger loyalty and higher conversion.

SMS remains one of the most effective ways to reach users.

But as sending scales, so does the cost.

And not always in ways you expect it to…
