SimpleTexting

Friendly, self serve texting for small business, balanced across campaigns, a two way inbox and live support.

SimpleTexting is one of the easier marketing texting tools to pick up, and a strong all rounder for small business. A clean two way inbox, automations, templates, segments and reliable deliverability cover most needs, and live support is a genuine strength. Plans are sold by monthly credits, from 500 credits at the entry tier up to 50,000 at the top, with three user seats included and free incoming messages. The tradeoffs are cost shaped: the entry price sits above the cheapest rivals, credit overages and extra seats or numbers add up, and it is marketing first rather than built for high volume operational alerts.

The scorecard

A balanced all rounder for small business texting.

SimpleTexting scores evenly across ease, support and deliverability with no real weak spot. It does not top any single column, which is why it lands just behind the category leaders rather than at the front.
