It’s never been easier to engage and interact with students than with our Five-Star Rated SMS platform. TrueDialog simplifies and expands your communication capabilities on the most effective channel to improve student outcomes.

Our Higher Education Platform features short codes for mass marketing and notifications and long codes for one-on-one conversations. You won’t find a lot of our features with SignalVine, like our multi-user, team-based, 2-way texting or our voice capabilities.
