How we grade them
| 2.6GPASalesmsgGood | 2.2GPATextedlyFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CBasic is $21 a month billed yearly ($25 monthly) for 1 seat, 1 number and 500 credits, right at the dear end of what this category charges. Extra seats are $10 each, but they share the same credits, and 2,500 credits a month costs $84. | CBronze is $49 a month for 1,000 messages, or 1,200 if billed yearly, the plan for texting 1,000 customers once. Yearly adds texts, not a discount. Inbound texts are free and Textedly pays 10DLC registration for your first number, but no overage price is published. |
| Free plan and trial | CA 14-day free trial, but a thin one: 25 credits on a temporary number, up to 10 contacts, and a "Salesmsg Trial:" watermark on outgoing texts. There's no free plan. | CNo monthly free plan, but a free account with 50 texts and one keyword, no card and no time limit. It's a one-off taster, not something to run a business on. |
| Features | CTexting is done fully, with a shared inbox, broadcasts, drips and AI agents, and calls get routing, recording and a power dialer. But it's built to sit beside a CRM rather than be your whole phone system, and every call minute burns the credits your texts need. | CThe texting job done fully, and a bit more: mass SMS and MMS, drip and birthday texts, text-to-pay through Stripe, Google review requests and AI agents for texts and calls. But texting is one channel of this category, with no WhatsApp or Instagram. |
| Ease of use | A4.7 from 1,644 App Store ratings. You get a temporary number the moment you sign up and can start texting straight away. | CNo App Store rating on record. Same features on every plan helps, but there are keywords, forms and campaigns to set up, and extra numbers carry the carriers' fees. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with two-way HubSpot and Salesforce sync plus Pipedrive, ActiveCampaign, Keap, Calendly, Zapier and Slack. There's no desktop app, which keeps it off an A. | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with Zapier, Mailchimp, Shopify, Salesforce, HubSpot and Stripe. No desktop app, which an A needs. |
| Best for | texting and calling leads from inside your CRM | texting offers to regular customers |
