TruePush is forever-free push notification company for both web and mobile. Bloggers, Marketer, App owners & developers from varied industries including Media houses and E-Commerce websites are sending millions of notifications every day. TruePush has advanced features like segmentation (pre-defined and custom segments), and triggers & templates that make it a user-friendly tool.
I had more than 100k subscribers on my blog with another company but their paid plans were too expensive for a blog like mine. It has a very large audience base and most of the audience is from India. So I searched for various alternatives (at that time i think Truepush was not …
I think One Signal is very well suited for mobile app owners who want to be in touch with their user base more easily by sending push notifications and in-app messages. I'm not sure how well that works for SMS messaging as I haven't yet tried it. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it if your in-apps are very rare.
Is still in development: we know OneSignal is still in development and sometimes it takes longer to create or fulfill certain features.
Payment: payment menu is not at the glance, [and] is just difficult sometimes to find -it is a minor issue.
Send to certain custom segments through specific OneSignal IDs; you can do it though API doing a GET call with tools like Postman. If this can be done from OneSignal it would be great.
I give an 8 in this question mainly for 2 reasons: the products even if they look like complete and are highly customizable and usable, they are still missing some logical features. For example, send messages to a list of users - now days you can do it with postman and get calls. A second example is App messaging that is still in development and has many opportunities.
Their customer support has been top-notch. They are able to assist you in getting through any problems that you may have and respond in a very timely manner. I've dealt with them on 4-5 instances over the years and my issues were always resolved within a matter of a few business days.
In my opinion, OneSignal documentation / API is more friendly [than] Firebase. Maybe because Firebase is already "too big," but OneSignal is focused on one solution that giving our notification through to our customer. In that case, OneSignal is chosen by our company. Several years after that, Firebase announced it supported [the] iOs platform too but our company already using OneSignal to our notification provider.
I had more than 100k subscribers on my blog with another company but their paid plans were too expensive for a blog like mine. It has a very large audience base and most of the audience is from India. So I searched for various alternatives (at that time i think Truepush was not launched) and find some good one which had comparatively cheaper plan with good service but within a year my subscriber base grown to 5 times of what it was with a previous company. That plan too become very expensive as the earning was not same every month due to changes in google algorithms and various other reasons. However it was very important to help students so I started searching for other alternatives. After trying many push providers, I was not happy with any of them. Then I ended my search when I found Truepush. After testing, checking their easy to use dashboard, analytics, push delivery and other functions, it took me just 10 minutes to decide that I was moving my Job Alert blog to Truepush. However there were definitely some doubts and some fears too as I had approximately 500k subscribers at that time. After chatting with Ravi (Co Founder Truepush) I felt confident and moved my blog. Now after two months of use, I can definitely say that I made the right decision as I never had any issue. The team at Truepush is always available to help me if I have any doubt. Thanks a lot to the team at Truepush for providing such an amazing product.
