One of our clients had the following requirements around their SMS solution:-
1. SMS Authentication
2. SMS Sales (Ordering pay per view / adding balance)
3. Alerts and notifications
They were currently using a messaging platform which was very specific to a particular country. To reduce the overall cost, they were looking at other solutions and wanted to make use of the open source solutions in this space to replace the their existing solution. They were interested in building a custom solution and paying to the network carrier for billing rather than using a 3rd party off the shelf solution.
We performed study and comparison of various open source and COTS SMS Gateways. Found this article useful in comparison -

The final solution recommended was Kannel. It is one of the highly scalable and efficient open source SMS and WAP Gateway solution that majority of the Messaging Providers uses in their suite. It is based on C technology and supports connectivity to various SMS Centers. It also provides HTTP based API for integration with other business suites for sending and receiving messages.
Hope this helps someone who is looking for similar comparison and solution.
