The SMS Card website is an excellent working example of this. SMS Card approached Octal to develop an online system to store business card information, include a mechanism to deliver this directly into caller's mobile phone memory, and incorporate an intelligent call routing system that allowed the user control over how they received their calls. The system successfully integrated IVR technology, web development and SMS communication. Launched at the beginning of April 2005, the SMS Card is building up a healthy userbase and attracting interest from all corners of the globe to run similar services abroad.   SMS Card website
