What Is an Employee Text Messaging System?

An employee text messaging system lets your business send important announcements, updates, and reminders to team members’ mobile devices via SMS. It improves internal communication with quick delivery, instant notifications, and easy accessibility.

It’s the ideal tool for contacting employees who work remotely, in the field, or away from a desk. Since it allows two-way communication, employees can reply with questions or confirmations.
