Android SMS Gateway App - Can use for large scale??

Support - Assistance technique
1

Hi

We are planning to use the Android SMS Gateway app to get data from sms into DHIS. [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dhis2.androidsms&hl=en]

But the scale of the implementation which has been finalized is too big(>30 districts) Therefore, now need to know if any one has used the android app for large scale implementation.

Also, if any one has tested the maximum sms which can be forwarded in a certain time period?

Any inputs will be very helpful.

Thanks

Hi Harsh,

This app was designed for the purpose of testing and demonstration. So its not recommended to be used for production DHIS 2 installations. Using network-based SMS gateways would be a better way.

Hi Harsh,

What is the size of the dataset you plan to deploy? We have successfully deployed this gateway for a pilot using a small dataset of approximately 16 data points (elements) in a monthly aggregation. It is not ideal but can be used to pilot ideas or as a STOP gap measure whilst planning for a proper gateway (which is obviously more expensive).

HI Harsh,

for such a large implementation you are better off using an SMS gateway such as Kannel or Jasmin. The android sms gateway is for test purposes.
