Diafaan SMS Server – full edition (formerly Diafaan Message Server) Description
Diafaan SMS Server – full edition is an advanced software application whose purpose is to help you send and receive SMS from and to a web browser, web server, email client, SQL database or C#/Visual Basic .NET script. It offers support for an unlimited number of gateways and connectors, as well as message distribution to multiple GSM modems.
Setup wizard
A setup wizard popups out when you run the tool for the first time. It gives you the possibility to set up authentication parameters for the administrator account (full name and password), select the type of message that you want to use (GSM modem gateway or Clickatell gateway), as well as configure the COM port where the GSM modem is connected or enter your Clickatell HTTP API account details.
At the end of the wizard, you are given the freedom to choose the connector type that you want to use, namely web, email, SQL or scripting connector.
For each of the aforementioned connectors, the tool integrates additional parameters that help you configure the built-in HTTP server for forwarding received messages to an external website using the ‘GET’ or ‘POST’ command, alter the SMTP server or an external POP3 client in order to forward received messages to email, store received messages in an SQL database, or use a script to process received SMS and initiate sending message options.
User-friendly layout
Diafaan SMS Server – full edition excels in the visual department. It successfully integrates a powerful and comprehensive suite of features into a well-organized GUI that doesn’t look crowded and overwhelming at all.
The application keeps a list with your Clickatell gateway and web connectors, as well as log and report details. You can check out a dashboard that shows an overview about the Clickatell and connector status, control the service (start, stop or pause), and view statistics about the number of send, failed and received messages.
SMS sending options
Diafaan SMS Server – full edition gives you the possibility to send and receive SMS messages with a 3G/GSM modem from Sierra Wireless, Cinterion, Wavecom, Siemens, Huawei, Option, ZTE and many others, send messages in multiple languages (including Chinese, Arabic, Korean and others), and view delivery confirmation reports.
Plus, it directs messages to pages with an analog mode or through the Internet (with support for IXO/TAP or UCP protocols with an analog or ISDN modem and SNPP, WCTP or UCP protocols over the Internet) and lets you work with MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server (Express), Microsoft Access, Oracle and other database servers with an ODBC or OLE DB driver.
Last but not least, you may schedule SMS using an SQL connection, store received SMS in a database table and log all sent messages in database tables. The built-in HTTP server lets you send SMS via your web browser, and manage contacts, received messages and groups right from the browser.
Queue, events and reports
Diafaan SMS Server – full edition keeps detailed lists with all your messages that are in the queue, logs (e.g. sending and receiving time, email address, message), events, and reports that include the total number or sent, failed and received messages. Reports can be exported to CSV file format.
Configuration settings
The tool lets you set up admin authentication parameters, specify the date and time format, configure email alerts and edit the message template, keep all logs or remove those items that are old, limit the size of the log, and consider a gateway unavailable after it has been down for a custom number of minutes.
Powerful SMS gateway
All in all, Diafaan SMS Server – full edition proves to be a reliable SMS platform for 3G/GSM/CDMA modems and SMPP accounts. It comes in handy especially when you need to work with multiple 3G/GSM modems and is suitable for rookies and professionals alike, thanks to its intuitive looks and setup wizards.
