SMPP Analyser
The SMPP Analyser acts as an SMPP proxy, with the client application binding to the service and the service onward binding to the SMSC or SMS Gateway. Packet captures can be viewed in your browser or exported into Wireshark. Use the online SMPP Analyser >
SMSC Simulator
Looking to test your SMS application or SMS-enabled application before connecting to a live SMS gateway or SMSC? Our SMSC Simulator service allows you to test using the SMPP protocol v3.3, v3.4 and v5. Read more about SMSC Simulator >
SMPP Client
Test an SMPP account and service using the Melrose Labs SMPP Client . Use from your web browser. No software installation necessary.
