FAQ

Plivo questions we are asked

Can voice and SMS share one provider sensibly?
Yes, and it simplifies numbering and billing. Keep the credentials and permissions separate per workload so a compromise of one is contained.
How is inbound failover handled?
A secondary termination address on the trunk, plus a PBX health check so traffic moves before users report faults.
Do we need programmable flows?
Only when routing depends on application data. Standard IVR and queue behaviour belongs on the PBX where it is easier to change.
