BNS Group’s msXsms SMS Connector is an enterprise-grade SMS solution that can consolidate different messaging requirements across multiple companies and departments to a single robust, reliable and scalable messaging platform allowing better cost management, compliance and controls.

msXsms uses open and industry standards SMPP & SMTP protocols. The absence of an open standards-based SMS gateway compliant with Australian Government Security guidelines was another key driver for commercial development of msXsms.

Benefits of using the msXsms platform include:

• Easily on-board business applications with minimal coding
• Avoids any future re-programming should the underlying SMS provider change
• Avoids using proprietary REST APIs unique to a single SMS provider
• Allows high availability message routing within the enterprise messaging backbone (eg: multiple exchange transport servers)
• Allows production to DR failover of SMS traffic.
• Allows multiple SMS providers to be supported for high availability at the SMS provider level.
• Primary and backup SMS providers are switched automatically without any application changes.
• Industry-standard SMPP implementation at the SMS server supports many SMS service providers allowing best possible contract rates to be negotiated.
• Allow distributed applications to use internal email as a store and forward system
  SMS Server provides built-in safety guards.
• For example, it will check for duplicate messages to the same mobile over a 24 hour period. This is configurable.
• Ideal for Government as the platform supports the Australian email protective marking standards 2018.3.
