Rich Communication Services (RCS) and omnichannel messaging solutions are rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after, value-rich options for organizations across the globe looking to more effectively reach and delight target customers. In fact, a recent study reveals that 74% of consumers are more likely to engage with a brand through RCS. Meanwhile, on the end user side, customers are always looking for more extensive messaging capabilities. As the oft-proclaimed, more sophisticated next generation of traditional SMS or MMS options, RCS’s expanded features like location sharing, high-res multimedia and customization present an attractive promise. However, the RCS ecosystem is highly complex and fragmented, and this has created challenges for service providers looking to deliver this desirable messaging tool — until now.
