This is usually fully automated thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/seven.io\/en\/products\/sms-gateway-api\/\" rel=\"noopener\">easy-to-integrate HTTP API<\/a>. Via such interfaces, the system or the server sends a generated error code as a text message via SMS to the stored telephone number.

In addition, there are far-reaching requirements for a stable system monitoring solution. One of the most important arguments in favor of the SMS Gateway is its high availability via SMS. People tend to forget a pager at home, but the smartphone is always there. GSM modules have limited memory and functions. And even if there is no internet available, be it Wifi or LTE, radio transmission is guaranteed almost everywhere in the world. In addition, SMS are usually read within 3 minutes and often even immediately. The chance to reach the recipient directly is therefore almost 100 percent.<\/p>\n<p>The accessibility of the SMS gateway is particularly interesting for server and system monitoring. <a href=\"https:\/\/seven.io\/en\/\" rel=\"noopener\">seven.io<\/a> ensures the operation of its technical infrastructure 365 days a year, 24 hours a day with an annual average availability of 99.9%. The only exceptions are maintenance work or technical malfunctions, which are usually the responsibility of the mobile service provider. Customers can even keep an eye on the server status of the gateway in their account. This gives them even more transparency.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small color_alternate\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-image style_shadow-1 align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"489\" src=\"https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/infografik_Monitoring_en-01-1024x489.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"SMS are very popular for server and system monitoring\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/infografik_Monitoring_en-01-1024x489.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/infografik_Monitoring_en-01-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/infografik_Monitoring_en-01-768x366.png 768w, https:\/\/www.seven.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/infografik_Monitoring_en-01-600x286.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_small\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><h2>Reliability in all areas<\/h2>\n<p>If you use an SMS gateway for system monitoring, you want to be confident that all components are working properly and your messages arrive on time. In addition, several other factors play a crucial role:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Data protection:<\/strong>\u00a0You only want to entrust content that is particularly critical to your company or relevant to data protection to a provider for whom data protection has priority. A high-quality direct service offers the safest integration. There are neither third party providers in between, nor external hosters involved. In addition, IP blocks, encryptions, blacklists and other features extend the security standards.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer service:<\/strong>\u00a0In the area of \u200b\u200bIT, EDP, <a href=\"https:\/\/seven.io\/en\/solutions\/industry-solutions\/fintech\/\" rel=\"noopener\">finance sectors<\/a> and similar industries with sensitive data, solutions are often needed that go beyond &#8220;normal&#8221; requirements. A competent support team can be worth gold, for example if you have questions about configuring special parameters, implementing 2-factor authentication, or which APIs are appropriate.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Development:<\/strong>\u00a0Talented developers are constantly working on optimizing the SMS gateway, that is, new features, adaptations of the API according to current technologies and improvement of usabilty.
