Supreme level of SMS integration
For PLS, Mercury SMS has helped decrease the time staff spends sending follow-up text messages. The integration has special functionality that allows users to build automated SMS sends directly into their support workflows.
According to representatives at PLS, the interface also proved a step up from their previous text message provider due to the addition of multiple folders to improve navigation of the 400 templates they’ve built in Salesforce before coming on board with Mercury SMS.
