What it is
PushBots provides a dashboard for managing and sending push notifications to mobile applications, with mobile and web push, audience segmentation, analytics, scheduling, and Twitter integration. It offers Android, iOS, and PhoneGap SDKs, along with a REST API and clients for PHP, Python, NodeJS, and dotNET. Listed platforms are Android, iOS, and API. The maker’s GitHub organization also lists a WordPress plugin and a React Native library. PushBots has a free plan and a 14-day trial. The Free plan is described as forever free and includes 1,000 monthly active users. Lite includes 5,000 subscribers, Basic 60,000, Plus 150,000, and Ultimate 300,000; Enterprise is for more than 300,000 subscribers and requires contacting sales. A separate listed subscriber limit is 5,000, so buyers should distinguish that figure from the capacities given for individual plans.
