Add-on What SMS API do you prefer?

[ThemeHouse]

Just trying to figure out the preferred SMS API for use in one of the next updates to the [TH] Two Step Authentication add-on. As it stands, we'll most likely use Twilio as it seems to be the best documented, and best reviewed service I've seen so far

+1 for Twilio.

Too expensive, and not the best.
Use https://www.plivo.com/sms-api/ or https://www.clickatell.com/developers/ instead. Just as good, and almost half the price.

I'd probably use Twilio, it's the biggest service.

I'll definitely look at them, thanks

I've looked into the two that @Mouth has provided and it seems that clickatell is actually more expensive than Twilio. I think starting out we'll have support for Twilio, but may eventually expand that to support Plivo. While Plivo does appear to be cheaper than Twilio, it doesn't seem to be as establishes and from the reviews I've read Twilio seems to be the better option. But it is possible I'll add support for both at the same time
