Mobile Carriers - Email to TEXT (No longer active or supported)

So it appears all carriers are nixing "email to text", so for all alerts configured to use paging in this manner, now broken.

I can confirm TMobile is a problem, and word has it Verizon shut it down this month.

Have any of you experienced issues with email to text? If so, how did you resolve it?

TMobile is telling us if you have corporate devices they can re-enable it for these devices only, no personal devices.

Problem for us is, we email-to-text mostly for on call admins and we send directly to their personal cell phones.

Not really an answer, but it sounds to me like it's time the company stepped up and paid for staff to have work mobiles.

Maybe I'm old fashioned, and maybe it's a UK centric approach, but I would never let a company utilise my personal mobile for anything to do with their business.

Take a look at PagerDuty, they have native integration with SolarWinds. https://www.pagerduty.com/docs/guides/solarwinds-integration-guide/

Hi Jeff, we have yet to have any exposure to the product or even an NFR license. Could you reach out so we know what we're dealing with?
