MessageDesk is a web-based business text messaging and shared SMS inbox platform that enables organizations to send and receive SMS/MMS from existing landline or VoIP phone numbers through a multi-user interface. MessageDesk is designed for mid-sized and larger teams that want a centralized way to handle texting without moving their primary phone numbers to a new carrier.
