Enterprise SMS Server
BNS Enterprise SMS Server is a secure and scalable software solution for sending SMS messages using industry-standard SMPP\TLS encryption. The server can be deployed in either your own cloud tenancy or data center, and it supports a range of SMS service providers.
Applications can send SMS messages using SQL or email, while users can send SMS messages using internal email from their email client, such as Microsoft Outlook. The SMS data is stored in Microsoft SQL Server for data analytics, controls, compliance, and audit purposes.
In addition to sending SMS messages, the SMS Server can also receive messages and deliver them to applications and users via email or a SQL database. The solution supports high availability at all three layers, including the platform layer (Azure\AWS), application layer (SMS server level), and SMS service provider layer (SMS delivery).
The solution allows for choosing from a list of tested SMS service providers and negotiating the best per-message rate. The primary and backup SMS service providers also offer redundancy at the service provider level.
The software has been extensively tested and verified in both AWS and Azure, providing customers with the confidence that the SMS Server software meets cloud-high availability, security, and design compliance.
BNS Enterprise SMS Server has been tested with several SMS service providers, including:
- MessageMedia
- Soprano Design
- SINCH (formerly CLX Communications) (USA)
- SINCH Australian implementation tested on 7 November 2019
- Telstra Integrated Messaging SMS

What Our Clients’ Say
“SMS was the surest way to connect regularly with our users. BNS Group understood what we were after and just made it work!”
“We have privacy obligations to our clients, and we would never use public cloud fax systems. That’s why we have worked with BNS group for many years deploying on-premise fax solutions. With NBN rollout and shutting down of copper and ISDN services, we asked BNS for some help to create an alternate highly secure fax solution. As usual, BNS was fantastic and developed a highly secure, Microsoft Azure cloud based faxing service. It was a seamless deployment and is working perfectly. We would highly recommend this highly secure solution”.
“The hybrid FAX cloud solution from BNS and Comvergence with Ricoh MFD FAX application made the perfect secure fax solution we needed. Our monthly costs are now predictable and manageable.”
