When ISP Port Networks began searching for a NetSuite-based text messaging solution, they reached out to MessageMedia. Hugh Bethell, General Manager of Port Networks, described why SMS is vital: "We live and breathe within NetSuite – it is the center of all our customer communications. Before we added SMS support to our NetSuite account, a network outage meant 5 to 10 minutes of support tech time for every affected customer. Using MessageMedia Text Messaging for NetSuite, I can send out batch SMS alerts, heading off calls and reassuring customers that the situation is under control. Instead of complaints, I get thankyous!", said Mr. Bethell. MessageMedia Text Messaging for NetSuite is available immediately.
