Education & Higher Learning.
Students and parents rarely check their emails on time, but they always check their phones. So, it’s not surprising that text messages are almost five times more likely to be read. This is why more schools are turning to mass texting as their key channel for connecting with their students and parents. iZigg goes beyond simple mass text announcements by offering industry-leading automation and engagement tools that will help schools communicate throughout the entire process – from registration and student engagement to parent communication and college placement.
SMS Text Messaging
Text messaging is the most immediate and convenient form of communication. 98% of all text messages get read, offering unparalleled opportunity to send critical updates to your subscribers.
Multimedia Messaging
A picture is worth a thousand words! Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) lets you send messages with pictures or videos to emphasize important messages, instructions, updates, or services.
Email Marketing
Use email alongside other channels to maximize your reach and enable you to cater to subscriber preferences. iZigg helps you maximize the benefits of email with smart targeting and automated engagement.

Yes, because of the file sizes, there is a difference in text credit costs between SMS and MMS. A regular SMS text blast, which includes plain text and up to 160 characters, will cost 1 text credit per mobile number.
