Migration Guide from Twilio to Digital Samba

Written by Digital Samba | March 5, 2024

Relying on a third-party service provider as part of your core business strategy is always risky, especially when the service is deeply integrated into your technology stack. Twilio recently announced that it will end-of-life (EOL) its Programmable Video service on December 5, 2024, stating that investments into the video service no longer align with the future vision of the organisation.

Update: Twilio will End of Life (EOL) their Programmable Video product on December 5, 2026.

Companies affected by this abrupt change in Twilio's strategy are left scrambling to find a viable alternative to prevent disruption to their operations. If you are one of those companies, Digital Samba would like to throw its hat into the ring by offering the Digital Samba Embedded service as a solution to your problem. Our philosophy towards integration differs slightly from Twilio's, and you will appreciate the simplicity it brings. Video is what we do, and with a 20+ year history, we are here to stay.

Let's explore how Digital Samba's commitment to simplicity through a prebuilt, low-code approach can have you up and running in no time.

Why choose Digital Samba over Zoom?

As you consider Twilio’s official recommendation to switch to Zoom’s Video SDK, the importance of exploring solutions that better align with your distinct needs cannot be overstated. While Zoom's dominance in the video conferencing market is undeniable, its focus is not on embedded solutions.

Digital Samba specialises exclusively in embedded solutions and is positioned as one of the most feature-rich embedded video conferencing products on the market.
