MessageDesk brings business texting for multiple teams and phone lines into a shared inbox, with access on web, Android, and iOS. Teams can route and assign conversations, add labels and comments, mention teammates, and schedule messages. It supports individual and group SMS and MMS, with group texts for up to 7 contacts. Automated Relays can send out-of-office replies, respond to keywords, identify contacts, assign teammates, and apply labels. Integrations include Twilio, Zapier, webhooks, and VoIP providers such as RingCentral, Ooma, Zoom Phone, and Microsoft Teams Phone. Sending uses 10-digit US or Canada numbers, including existing landline and VoIP numbers, but not cell phone numbers. The Team plan includes carrier registration; the company guides businesses through A2P 10DLC registration. Team starts at $29 a year per user, billed annually, with a three-user minimum. A 14-day trial requires a credit card to start. MessageDesk says SMS is not end-to-end encrypted, is not for protected health information, and it does not currently sign BAAs.
