Challenges and Solutions
Here are some challenges we faced while developing Ubi.chat
Mass SMS sending
Problem:
The app had limits on the amount of SMS sent per second. For example, if a campaign requires the delivery of 100,000 SMSs, it will take a lot of time to finish sending.
Solution:
We optimized the sending process by adding multiple numbers, creating special queues, and adding more pools of numbers.
Analytics tracking
Problem:
Unlike messengers and emails, SMS are hard to track. It’s impossible to see if the recipient opened an SMS and read the information in it. So we had to create a tool for checking the open rate and unsubscribing rate.
Solution:
We create unique deep links for each message. It registers the moment it’s open and provides the client with the best possible statistics about the number of open messages and unsubscribed users.
Results
The client actively uses the platform for managing SMS marketing campaigns and they are happy with the functionality.
