Pros: The Zapier-Twilio interface is a good one, and makes sending MMS and SMS messages very easy. The general UX for Twilio is OK, too.

Overall: Generally - I'm very happy with Twilio. Yes, I wish error handling was faster and more intuitive. But since errors are highly infrequent, that's not a deal-breaker.
