Esendex will be rolling out a major release on the 5th
of August. This release changes the way we currently process messages, so that
your messages are processed and sent to their destination in a more efficient
manner. Due to the large change in our code, we will conduct this upgrade out
of business hours to minimise any potential disruptions to service. The upgrade will take place between 5:30 pm
and midnight (GMT) on the 5th, and customers may experience small
delays in service. However, Esendex is taking steps to ensure that no messages will be lost and a service
outage will not occur during the upgrade process, because every message
matters! Thanks in advance for your understanding, and we apologise for any
inconvenience this may cause.
Aside from the change in the way we process your messages
here are some of the new features that you may notice in this release. We are rolling out three releases in one on
the 5th and here is what you will see:
