<h2>Comparison to Alternative Methods</h2>
|

<p>
|
||||
SMS gateways can be created using several alternative methods, including hosted services (e.g. Twilio, Tropo, Clickatell),
|
||||
connecting GSM phones/modems to a computer (e.g. FrontlineSMS, RapidSMS, Kannel),
|
||||
and partnering directly with mobile operators.

KalSMS is ideal for situations where no hosted services with local numbers are available in
|
||||
a particular country, or when it is necessary to receive MMS messages. KalSMS likelly has
|
||||
lower throughput than hosted services or partnering with mobile operators, but should
|
||||
be able to forward up to a few thousand messages per phone per day.
