Get the Picture: Line2 Launches Game-Changing MMS Messaging for Business UsersLine2 is excitedly announcing the launch of MMS capabilities today as an expansion of their business messaging services. The feature supports picture messaging, and true group messaging with up to ten recipients. This lends to sophisticated business messaging that allows for more professional and effective communications that enhance customer engagement with richer content. It seamlessly works with Line2 (News - Alert) Everywhere, allowing users to continue conversations across the devices of their choice. While consumers may be familiar with these features on their personal mobile messaging plan, Line2 is a pioneer in the VoIP industry, being one of the first to bring them to business users as part of a cloud phone service. Having already advanced business use of global SMS for years now, it's logical to provide businesses with picture messaging for sharing images with their coworkers, clients, vendors and partners, and group messaging for collaborating with the same. "MMS is a miracle for me," says Ian Levenson, Medical Director of The Colorado Center for Health and Longevity. "I am a physician and patients are able to text me a picture of a rash or something and I'll have an idea of what they're talking about. This is a game changer for them and myself." "It's critical to my business that I have a separate line from my personal cell phone. Line2 gives me that option. Now, with MMS, I have a complete tool that helps me communicate with my clients in a way that no competitor can match!" owner of FineTune Tech & Training Brett Nord says. "In my consulting business, I can't afford to miss a phone call and since my clients often want to send me a picture of what their Mac screen or iPhone (News - Alert) is looking like, I can help troubleshoot better than ever." MMS is now supported by new message composers and conversations in all of Line2's rich suite of apps for iPhone, iPad, Android (News - Alert), Mac, and Windows. "We're excited to bring the convenience and effectiveness of both picture and group messaging to business communications," says Line2 CEO Doug Brackbill. "Line2 messaging allows our users to share important visuals and to collaborate quickly and casually with team members - inside and out of their companies." To experience Line2's sophisticated business messaging and phone service now with MMS, prospective users can sign up at Line2.com and download the apps from the App Store and Google (News - Alert) Play.
