Why We Built NimbusSMS (and Why It’s Better Than Twilio for Small Teams)
If you’ve ever tried to run SMS campaigns using tools like Twilio or EZTexting, you’ve probably run into the same issues we did: high costs, complex setups, and a lack of features tailored for small businesses and solo teams.
We needed something simpler, faster, and more affordable—without compromising delivery or reliability. So instead of settling for an expensive, developer-heavy solution, we built NimbusSMS.
The Problem with Most SMS Platforms
Most SMS tools are built for enterprise teams with large budgets and in-house developers. As a result, they come with unnecessary complexity and inflated pricing structures:
- Monthly platform fees even when you’re not sending messages
- Extra charges per number, user, or feature
- Generic sender IDs and zero branding control
- A learning curve that requires technical help to get started
For businesses that move fast—like sports services, ecommerce stores, local marketers, or online coaches—that kind of overhead just doesn’t make sense.
What Makes NimbusSMS Different
NimbusSMS is designed for simplicity, speed, and savings—without sacrificing quality. Built on Amazon Web Services, it offers enterprise-grade performance without enterprise pricing.
- Powered by AWS: We run directly on AWS Pinpoint, ensuring fast, secure delivery with full reliability.
- Transparent, Flat Pricing: No hidden fees—just $25/month (or $15/month for early adopters) with lower per-message rates than Twilio and others.
- Branded Portal: Get your own SMS dashboard hosted on a custom subdomain, like sms.yourdomain.com.
- Campaign Scheduling: Easily queue up messages in advance for time-sensitive promotions or reminders.
- CSV Contact Uploads: Drag and drop your contact list—no technical setup required.
- Delivery Reporting and Compliance Filtering: Track every message and avoid blocked content with built-in protections.
Who NimbusSMS is Built For
Whether you’re a solo operator or managing multiple campaigns for clients, NimbusSMS is built to support you. Here are a few of the types of users we serve best:
- Sports Picks Services: Send alerts for daily plays, lineup changes, or odds drops with no delays.
- Ecommerce Brands: Promote flash sales, restocks, or order updates to boost conversion rates.
- Coaches and Consultants: Share session reminders, resources, and progress check-ins via SMS.
- Marketing Agencies: Manage multiple client accounts with our upcoming agency portal features.
Why We’re Offering Early Access Pricing
We believe powerful SMS tools shouldn’t cost a fortune—or require a team of developers. That’s why we’re offering early access pricing at just $15/month. It includes 3 SMS numbers, scheduling, reporting, and full AWS infrastructure.
As we roll out new features like AI-powered templates, message warmup tools, and agency portals, your price stays locked in.
