Can I send bulk SMS messages via NTA LAGOS SMS Mobile

NTA LAGOS SMS Mobile has a small bundled separate application to send out SMS marketing messages using your database and the phone or GSM modem you use for NTA LAGOS SMS Mobile.
A major drawback of sending SMS messages through a phone or GSM modem is the low sending rate. The performance is not affected by the connection between the computer and the phone or GSM modem (i.e. no matter the phone or modem is connected to the computer through a serial cable, USB cable, Bluetooth link or infrared link) the determining factor for the SMS sending rate is the network provider.
If you are planning to send out hundreds of SMS messages you need to allow plenty of time to send them or we recommend you export you database and use a 3rd party bulk SMS provider
