How does TrueDialog compare to SendPulse?
SendPulse is general-purpose marketing software with a bolted-on SMS tool (that feels like an afterthought). TrueDialog is purpose-built for enterprise-level texting. Our solution features a five-star-rated platform, highly secure infrastructure, a user-friendly interface, and industry-leading reliability.
Unlike SendPulse, which relies on third-party SMS delivery and lacks compliance certifications, TrueDialog delivers high-volume direct-to-carrier messaging at scale, backed by SOC 2 and TX-RAMP security certifications. Our platform seamlessly combines mass texting via short codes and 1:1 conversational messaging via long codes — all in a single, integrated thread for easy communication management.
And because we built direct connections with mobile carriers, our customers benefit from:
- Higher message deliverability
- Lower, transparent pricing with no hidden markups
- Unmatched reliability and fewer filtered messages
If you want to build meaningful engagement through SMS campaigns — with a platform designed to meet compliance requirements and scale with your organization — TrueDialog is the easy choice.

Learn MoreSendPulse relies on aggregator connections, which can lead to message delays and blocklisting. TrueDialog connects directly to U.S. carriers, ensuring your SMS campaigns reach customers reliably — even when sending thousands of messages at once.
SendPulse lacks SOC 2, ISO 9001, and TX-RAMP certifications, potentially exposing businesses to security risks. TrueDialog meets the highest compliance standards to help protect your data and reduce the risk of costly Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) violations.
SendPulse’s SMS tool crumbles when faced with high-volume campaigns. TrueDialog handles millions of messages without bottlenecks, reliably supporting everything from enterprise-scale marketing blasts to emergency alerts.
SendPulse offers surface-level CRM connections that can break under complex demands. TrueDialog integrates natively with Salesforce, HubSpot, MS Dynamics, Marketo, and Eloqua, so you can embed messaging directly into your workflows and reporting.
SendPulse lures small businesses with low prices — but with such limited basic functionality, you’ll pay much more to scale your SMS sends. TrueDialog offers transparent, predictable pricing without carrier markups, so you can continue generating superior ROI as your business grows.
SendPulse’s primitive analytics leave teams flying blind. TrueDialog provides real-time reporting on deliverability, clicks, opt-outs, and other essential metrics so you can make more informed, data-driven decisions.
SendPulse’s functionality is spread thin across channels, and its SMS solution feels like an afterthought. TrueDialog offers messaging across SMS, MMS, voice, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and email and uses carrier-grade infrastructure to ensure your multi-channel messages arrive on time.
SendPulse integrates with AI tools for content creation, but TrueDialog goes several steps further. Our award-winning, AI-powered TrueDelivery helps increase SMS campaign deliverability and engagement, while our AI Chat Assistant suggests quick responses to inbound texts.
SendPulse uses offshore helpdesks with slow response times. TrueDialog provides exceptional support from U.S.-based SMS experts who are available via phone, email, or text to ensure rapid resolutions and successful campaigns.
