Is Pushr easy to use?

You bet. We took a look at handfuls of competing products, and our head was spinning we were so confused. If these confused us, we knew we couldn’t be the only ones. So, we built a tool that’s simple and easy to use. Not convinced? Check out our how it works page for details and screenshots.

What’s the difference between an SMS Communication System and an SMS Marketing System?

You can certainly use Pushr to send marketing messages, but we want you to look at the broader uses of SMS to add value and increase customer engagement, not just blast your audience with marketing drivel. We don’t want you to “market” to your customers, we want you to communicate with them. It’s just one word, but there’s a big difference.
