A lack of communication can be a major barrier for grassroots non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working in developing countries. FrontlineSMS is the first text messaging system created exclusively with this problem in mind.
By leveraging basic tools already available to most NGOs — computers and mobile phones — FrontlineSMS enables instantaneous two-way communication on a large scale. It’s easy to implement, simple to operate, and best of all, the software is free. You just pay for the messages you send in the normal way.
FrontlineSMS:Medic’s mission is to help health workers communicate, coordinate patient care, and
provide diagnostics using low-cost mobile technology. FrontlineSMS:Medic recently released PatientView, which enables users to manage patient records anywhere there’s a mobile signal. Upcoming tools include mapping, natural language processing, mobile payment, and MMS-based diagnostic modules.
