Best Twilio WhatsApp Alternative for Field Service Teams

Twilio's WhatsApp API is a developer-focused communications platform that provides programmatic access to the WhatsApp Business API. Twilio is infrastructure — it requires software development to build any actual bot or application on top. Organizations using Twilio for WhatsApp typically have engineering teams building and maintaining custom chatbot applications. Twilio charges per message segment, which can become expensive at scale.
