Managing SMS with 3CX?

[Razva]

Hey,

I'm thinking about buying a VoIP Gateway and use it with our carrier (Orange) SIM. Does 3CX offer any kind of support for managing SMS? I need to read and reply to messages, preferable from the iOS / Android clients.

Thanks!

Hi Razva,

The PBX does not offer any type of SMS management, this is out of the scope of the system.

Yet. Might in the future, saw a lot of threads about that.

I am REALLY interested in this as well... Reason being is 2FA. Most web based apps (Office 365) and many more are now REQUIRING 2FA.

Yes they are any they aren't recommended SMS as the second factor. They are recommending their authenticators (MS and Google respectively). SMS is not considered a secure channel:
