2. A real, no-middleman network
Other providers rely on the public internet and a vast roster of aggregators and intermediaries for their core communications functionality. Unlike these communications resellers, Telnyx operates its own purpose-built global IP network, developed from the ground up for real-time communications. Our full ownership of our network means we don’t pay go-betweens or aggregators for core communications services, and we can pass those savings directly on to our customers. What’s more - our multi-cloud points of presence are interconnected by a private fiber backbone, giving you the ultimate in communications quality and reliability.
3. Free 24/7 support, for everyone
At Telnyx, we’re serious about providing every customer with the tools to build revolutionary cloud communications. That’s why our best-in-class support team is available 24/7 by phone, email, or chat to all of our customers. Other providers place their premium support behind a paywall - for instance, Twilio charges a minimum of $1,500 per month (or a surcharge of 6% of your monthly bill - whichever is more expensive) for 24/7 email and phone support.
Our support team is fully available to all of our customers, all of the time, with no minimum-spend requirements or sneaky premium support plans, so your questions never have to wait until Monday.
Our in-house engineers are also far better equipped to answer your communications questions than other providers’ support teams. Because we manage our own purpose-built communications network, our team has direct control over your communications routing and other core functionalities. In contrast, other resellers like Twilio will often have to lodge tickets with their communications middlemen, and wait for these intermediaries to fix trivial communications issues.
