Pros and cons

SimpleTexting

Pros

  • Clear published credit ladder with monthly and yearly prices
  • Unlimited contacts and keywords on every plan, with 3 users included
  • Toll-free number at no extra fee and only a $4 one-time registration charge
  • Monthly credits roll over to the next month

Cons

  • Ecommerce links are thinner than Postscript or Klaviyo, and the pricing page does not say whether the Shopify connection is native
  • MMS costs 3 credits, so picture-heavy campaigns burn credits fast
  • Credit plans cost more per text than usage-based tools at higher volumes
  • Extra users cost $20/month each beyond the 3 included

Klaviyo

Pros

  • SMS and email share one profile, one flow builder and one report
  • Free plan includes $5 of mobile messages each month to test SMS
  • Toll-free number included, with carrier fees built into the rate
  • Quiet hours settings documented in detail, including per-flow controls

Cons

  • Current US per-message SMS rates are only visible inside the account
  • SMS is an extra purchase on top of the email plan
  • Overkill if you only want to text customers and never send email
