Several key features separate OpenMarket from its competition, making it ideal for customers of all sizes requiring a quick, complete and seamless solution for their wireless messaging needs. In doing so, they ensure that OpenMarket will continue to offer developers, businesses, and telecommunications carriers solutions unavailable through its competitors.

Comprehensive
With challenges that intricately intertwine, as they do in the wireless application arena, a comprehensive solution is far superior to a partial or piecemeal solution. OpenMarket offers a complete suite of products, addressing the full spectrum of difficulties with wireless messaging, each of which is itself comprehensive in its features and accompanying support. Our products and services consolidate the fragmented wireless messaging industry, handle all aspects of the complex messaging process, and allow the simple integration that businesses and developers demand.

This enables OpenMarket to offer a full spectrum of shrink-wrapped and customized solutions to developers, telecommunications carriers and businesses of all sizes and types. This lies in sharp contrast to its competitors, who offer products which solve only one or two of the problems involved in wireless messaging, or products which offer only a partial set of the desired features.

Reliable
OpenMarket has a proven history of fulfilling, and continues offering an industry-leading Service Level Agreement with guaranteed up-time. This SLA is something that very few other companies in the market offer. Since they depend on the uptime of several other parties, they have multiple points of failure, and cannot be as certain that service will be maintained reliably.

Turnkey
Customers demand efficiency and simplicity in their wireless initiatives. OpenMarket has tailored its products and customer services to meet these demands. Because of its background in development, its team knows the needs of developers and offers the simplest means of integrating wireless messaging capabilities.

The most tangible reflection of this principle lies in OpenMarket¹s client side software, in the form of its SMS Software Development Kit, which integrates into applications more easily than any product offered by its competitors. With just a few lines of code and a few minutes of development necessary, few companies can compete with OpenMarket for ease of implementation.

This is also reflected in the signup process. The OpenMarket Developer Program allows quick creation of an account via OpenMarket¹s website and tools to test the application free of charge at any time. Billing is also available in an easy-to-use format via the website. Customers can come to the website, signup, license, pay, and begin sending messages all in a matter of minutes. Furthermore, online interfaces are provided for account management, setting a new standard for customer service in the wireless messaging industry. No competitor offers such a simple and quick process to fully enable wireless messaging.
