“user friendly interface”
Pros
Its interface is user friendly. It also comes with an API which makes integration with third party applications convenient. Another plus is the transparent pricing, along with a cost estimate calculator that helps with planning expenses.
Cons
Pricing runs a little higher compared to average SMS gateway providers. Customer support is not available 24x7 and there is no live chat option either.

One of the biggest advantages is the custom message ID and I can send messages from both my phone and desktop without any hassle. Being able to save templates is also a really useful feature.

Honestly I haven't come across any downsides. This software has been excellent for me overall.

“support is always available”
Pros
Getting started was simple thanks to the free trial credits which gave our startup room to test things out and get comfortable with the messaging framework. On top of that, the support team has been fantastic and always just a phone call away whenever we need help.
Cons
There really haven't been any issues to mention. Everything has been simple to use and anytime we've had a question, it's been resolved quickly so no complaints at this point.

“affordable pricing”
Pros
One thing that really stands out is the customer support. They're quick to respond and genuinely helpful. The platform is simple to use so getting started and managing SMS campaigns doesn't take much effort. Pricing is also quite affordable which makes it a solid option overall.
Cons
At this point, I haven't run into any real issues. It handles most SMS delivery needs well and has been working reliably for us.

“Great marketing campaign options”
Pros
This app covers a variety of SMS needs with separate options for OTP, informational messages and marketing campaigns which is really helpful. Another thing I appreciated was the support team. They explained the product thoroughly and answered every question patiently.
Cons
The API structure takes some effort to understand and the documentation can be a bit confusing.

“works well across platforms”
Pros
Using MSG91 across different platforms has been really convenient. I've used it on Android, iOS and the website and it's very simple to work with on all of them.
Cons
Its international SMS features and related services still have room to get better and adding more validation checks would help reduce unnecessary user credit usage.

“fast SMS delivery rate”
Pros
The APIs cover a range of use cases and the documentation is really well put together. On top of that, SMS messages are delivered quickly.
Cons
At times, the SMS delivery reports aren't completely reliable. For example, a message that has already been sent may still appear as undelivered.

“useful documentation”
Pros
A few things really worked well for me with this product are 1) the backend panel is simple to get started with and is backed by useful documentation, 2) the dashboard feels user friendly and gives plenty of information, 3) the API integration docs are clear and the implementation is simple to follow, 4) once we moved to production, the SMS delivery was reliable even though we were not using it for high priority messages and 5) the customer support team was responsive and guided us well in the initial stages.
Cons
One downside is that another part of the product depends on a separate documentation knowledge base and that section felt cluttered and confusing when trying to understand where to begin. Once you eventually get past that part, the rest becomes fairly easy to implement.

“Comes with many handy extensions”
Pros
Getting started was easy, the installation process was simple and the wide availability of extensions is a big plus. On top of that, the support team has been very responsive whenever any concern comes up.
Cons
There really aren't many downsides although in a few cases some delivery parameters don't seem to be configured correctly.

“interactive dashboard”
Pros
Having everything available through an interactive dashboard makes the platform very convenient to use and the documentation is solid as well. I also appreciate the clear separation between OTP services and regular SMS packages which is really important. The API works well for integrating with a custom backend and the reporting gives a complete view for analysis. On top of that, the customer support system has been reliable and helpful.
Cons
An area that still needs improvement is scalability when it comes to updates for newer frameworks such as Node.js and Android. I ran into a problem because Android 9 support was missing and I had to pause using this for a few days because of it. It was eventually fixed but those updates should be rolled out much faster.
