On 5th May 2005, Mobile SMS Pro was integrated to Tutorial Manager to send results of an examination to students or their parents through sms. Mobile SMS Pro is available alone for single use. A tool is also available to integrate Mobile SMS Pro to Tutorial Manager or Optical Mark Pro as an enhancement module. This tool works only on versions of TM or OMP equal to or higher than 8.0. If users of Tutorial Manager 7.0 or 6.0 want to integrate Mobile SMS Pro to their software, first of all they have to upgrade their product to version 8.0 or 9.0 for a workable solution. |
