CPaaS SMS Delivery Issues. Whats the Solution?

How to solve Programmable SMS API Delivery issues

SMS delivery and connectivity issues is on the rise from many CPaaS Providers. I have experienced it first hand, I even tested popular CPaaS providers like Twilio, Nexmo again 5 minutes prior to writing this blog post. After many years of trying different CPaaS providers we realized that none of these popular CPaaS providers is a perfect solution to be the only connectivity option. The reason for this issue is not caused by Twilio’s platform it self, the reason can be an aggregator that Twilio uses causing such issues. Until Twilio interconnects with every single MNO in the world this issue is here to stay.

As a developer or organization relaying on CPaaS Platform like Twilio, Nexmo or Plivo, switching from one CPaaS Provider to another as not a good solution.

Why?
