The
Now SMS/MMS Gateway (NowSMS) is an SMS and MMS Content Delivery Solution. NowSMS is a fast track to deploying
and developing SMS, MMS and WAP Push solutions.
NowSMS is an easy-to-install SMS Gateway, MMS
Gateway, WAP Push Proxy Gateway and Multimedia
Messaging Center (MMSC).
NowSMS is a scalable solution that is affordable for development, testing, with scalability to support full production mobile operator systems.
NowSMS is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2003 and 2008.
NowSMS 2009 is the fastest performance release of NowSMS to date.
While we've continued to add considerable new functionality, we've successfully avoided the bloatware trap.
Effective immediately, licenses supporting up to 400 messages per second are available.
Additional enhancements in recent releases include:

Supports SMS connectivity
via one or more GSM
modems (or GSM phones connected to a PC
serial port), or over TCP/IP connections using
SMPP, CIMD,
UCP/EMI
and/or HTTP
protocols. (Note: A subscription to an SMS service provider or a GSM modem is required to send any messages with NowSMS.)
Supports least
cost routing with pattern matching to route
messages to different SMS connections based
on destination.
Supports sending and receiving MMS messages either via direct SMS/WAP delivery with its built-in MMSC, or can interface to operator MMSCs using the MM1, MM4 (SMTP), MM7 (XML-SOAP based HTTP POST API) and/or EAIF (Nokia proprietary API) protocols. The MM1 interface can talk to an operator MMSC over a GPRS/GSM modem without a special operator account.
Supports easy
generation and delivery of MMS
messages,
and includes an MMS compiler for generating
the binary headers and message formats required
for MMS content.
Includes a powerful
MMSC
for processing MMS messages independent of
the operator gateway. The MMSC supports dynamic
content adaptation and content conversion
to help simplify the process of delivering
MMS content to devices with varied characteristics.
The MMSC also includes a built-in SMTP e-mail gateway for bi-directional exchange of messages
between MMS compatible devices and internet
e-mail recipients.
Supports Unicode
(UTF-8) formats for both SMS and MMS messages,
enabling deployment in multilingual environments.
Supports easy
generation and delivery of WAP
Push messages, independent of the WAP
gateway being used.
Supports Multimedia WAP Push to simplify the delivery of multimedia objects and Java applications via WAP Push.
Supports 2-way
SMS for interactive application development.
SMS messages received by the gateway can trigger
either an executable program to be run, or
an HTTP request. Simple text responses back
to the user can be returned as output of the
request. More complex responses, including
MMS or other binary SMS content, are also
supported.
Supports 2-way
MMS for interactive multimedia application
development. MMS messages received by the
gateway are parsed into individual file components
that can be easily processed by a user supplied
tools. For example, received MMS images could
be automatically posted to a web site.
Includes an SMPP
server, simplifying the process of connecting
multiple gateways and applications.
Provides an SMTP
interface with SMTP Authentication support,
allowing a user account to login via SMTP
with an e-mail client to submit bulk delivery
of SMS or MMS messages.
Supports sending
of other binary
SMS formats, including EMS, ring tones,
etc.
Supports concatenated
SMS for SMS
text messages longer than 160 characters.
Supports easy
generation and delivery of new voice mail
notification messages, simplifying the integration
of office voice mail with mobile voice mail.
