Activity Summary

The activity summary is a real-time summary of your organization's everyday activities. It gives you a count of the messages sent to and from the platform. It does not take into account the length of the message.

For example for counts for Incoming and Outgoing messages, a text message is usually 160 characters in length. If you send out or receive a message longer than 160 characters is still considered as one message record. However when it comes to billing, you will be charged for more than message

Activity is broken down by
  1. Outgoing Messages
  2. Survey Invites
  3. Survey Completes
  4. Notices Sent
  5. Inbox Messages
  6. Outbox Messages
  7. Contact Registrations
