  • Output to Mobile App or SMS?

    Our company is looking to implement a system that would take an output file and send it to our employees.
    We have a couple of ideas floating around:
    (1) Send this file via SMS/Text through a third party
    (2) Do the above ourselves
    (3) Develop a mobile app that would allow users to sign in, then set up our system to send that user a message on the app when we wish to.
    (4) Find a third party app that would do this.

    We operate a freight transportation company, and it would be nice for our drivers to have a notification on their phone from home or at a truck stop instead of having to go out to their truck.
    If anyone has any insight, it would be greatly appreciated.

    The company that I work for has development tools that let you write your own mobile apps (include the ability to send SMS messages, retrieve GPS locations, and many more things. ) This is a commercial solution, if you're interested, please see our web page at http://www.profoundlogic.com and/or e-mail us at sales@profoundlogic.com

      If you're looking to do this for free, you might consider the open source "PhoneGap" tool. It lets you make mobile apps from a web application.
