"We were paying TextLocal around £210 a month just to confirm patient appointments. Since switching to SMSFlow, we pay £47/mo for the plan and nothing per SMS. The cost-saving was instant — and our ICO compliance officer was particularly pleased that patient data no longer passes through a US-based server."

"Integrated SMSFlow with our WooCommerce store via Zapier in under half an hour. Abandoned basket SMS now go out within 15 minutes of a customer leaving. Our recovery rate jumped considerably and the cost per recovered order is essentially nothing. Brilliant platform."

"Running a personal training studio, no-shows were genuinely costing me money. We set up automated appointment reminder SMS through SMSFlow and no-shows dropped by around 55% within the first month. The monthly plan paid for itself with a single retained client. Couldn't recommend it enough."
