Once again, iGrade showed its leadership in the field of integration and innovation in the IT and Wireless Communication field by introducing a Virtual Message System (VMS).
The iGrade-VMS is developed as a desktop application from where messages can be send to wireless communication devices, such as a SMS towards a cellphone. These messages can be sent towards individuals, or as bulk towards a database of contacts. These contacts can be employees, friends or customers.
According to Barend Venter, director of iGrade, this new cutting edge technology opens a whole new world of opportunities. It opens new ways of direct and interactive communication and marketing.
The iGrade-VMS is available as freeware, and once installed or downloaded on the desktop, the user can do an online registration, enabling him to purchase airtime directly via the Internet with a credit card. This will enable the user to financially manage the cost of a marketing campaign.
The application is customer base, meaning that the application is installed on the customer`s desktop and connect to a central server via the Internet. A database of all the clients customers remain on his desktop from where he can manage the list of persons to who he would like to send the SMS, meaning that a bulk SMS is possible.
Once a SMS is send, the receiver of the SMS can reply to the SMS from his phone, making the iGrade-VMS a unique product with interactive functionalities. The reply is logged and a report of all SMSs with replies is available from a local point.
The iGrade-VMS can help you to counter the ever-increasing cost of you company`s phone bill. Instead of making a call, you can send all those reminders and notices about meetings and outstanding amounts as a SMS via the iGrade-VMS. Once registered, a log report is available confirming delivery of messages.
From a cost perspective, the iGrade-VMS does make sense to every business as it can put you in touch with colleagues, friends and clients - all at a minimal cost while it can save you time by sending it in bulk.
The iGrade-VMS is free of charge and is available from www.igrade.co.za/vms.asp
