The technology behind RapidSMS is the simple part. However, deploying RapidSMS successfully as a key component of larger communication or data collection systems takes careful planning and proper coding. We recommend that a field program implementer who is comfortable with RapidSMS implementations work closely with software developers to ensure applications are appropriately designed. Additionally, it is vital to examine GSM coverage to assess whether an SMS-related platform can meet the project needs.
