About Us

Kenect is based in the “Silicon Slopes” of Utah. Our goal is to Kenect businesses with consumers through our state-of-the-art business texting platform.

We work very hard to make text messaging the primary communication tool for any business across the U.S. and Canada. Texting is the way the consumer wants to do business. It's time for businesses to embrace that trend and stop the constant game of voicemails, phone tag, and making customers wait on hold.
