Truth is we chose plivo for its … Truth is we chose plivo for its competitive pricing. Soon enough we paid for our mistake :( SMS failures one after another... Outages, failures and timeout are quite common. Even when the "system" is up and running, our end users complained a lot about not receiving the sms... Whenever we reached out to Plivo they gave us a typical response from their support team: "we checked with our provider and SMS was successfully sent." always blaming end users' phones for dropping the messages... EVERY SINGLE TIME!!

Happy customer for the last 12 months We started using Plivo just before COVID, and this year we have relied more on them to message our customers. They have an excellent API and well documented examples. I wish someday they add more reporting around deliver rates and times for our teams to view and action.

Poor services and taking $ without deliverying services Various issues with the services while they claiming and lying about their services are almost 100% uptime. Ridiculous. Only focus on taking money without delivering the services especially when SMS are not delivered they just making excuse of their carriers problems. You will ended up paying $ for no services. careful with this dodgy one

Same issue Same issue. We are about to go live with our website but got a message from Plivo: Our systems have flagged your account, due to which we are unable to provide you access to our services. I wasted a day to use Plivo API just to learn that I can't use this in our live environments. Plivo, please put this onto your website that you are selective in offering this service and don't provide much explanation about flagging the accounts.

Be wary of their bait and switch… Be wary of their bait and switch tactics. When you create your account you will see many available phone numbers to purchase. Upon making a payment, thousands of them disappear. I opened 2 accounts, on my paid account I see no availability, on my unpaid account I see many available numbers for the exact same query.
