| SOCIAL NETWORKING CASE STUDY: RUMMBLE
Rummble, a fast growing location bases search and discover tool, looked to Clickatell to take their business global. Their award-winning algorithm gives personalised results based on the individual users profile and social network content. Realising that they needed to reach users who were more comfortable with SMS than using Java applications as well as users in developing countries that did not perhaps have access to data connections, Rummble opted to use Clickatell’s SMPP product.
This robust connection allows them to utilise the immediacy of SMS text messaging to both push content and send alerts to their users. With the two-way messaging capacity of Clickatell’s user-friendly API connection, Rummble can now reach their users anywhere in the world, whenever they want. Clickatell’s SMS Gateway offers a network reach of over 200 countries through more than 700 developers allowing Rummble to extend their global reach and expand their market.
In addition to the reliability offered by Clickatell’s award-winning SMS Gateway, Rummble also was assured of fast inbound and outbound messaging. The connection between the SMPP API and the SMS Gateway is continuous allowing for very fast delivery of messages. This enabled them to respond quickly to queries from their clients and by sending test SMS messages to clients they could test connectivity issues. The SMPP product that they chose to use is ideal for sending out high volume messages.
“We integrated with Clickatell quite early on in our private beta service, and have been using them on our launched platform since. The support offered by Clickatell has been great and the business relationship with account managers personal.”
