h1. Message sending through SMPP connection A user can connect to *Smartswitch* through [[SMPP protocol]] and send messages. This scheme might be used in case if on user's side intellectual system is installed, which supports SMPP 3.4 standard. For example, [[CRM system]]. Most reasonable to use this scheme for significant amount of messages per second. Or in case if on customer's side [[SMPP protocol]] is already implemented, for example, as module to [[CRM system]]. In case if messages count is not significant, or if SMPP protocol should be implemented on customer's side from scratch, then it's more reasonable to use [[Message sending through API]], because SMPP protocol is quite complex in development.
