# Build Server Notifications with Twilio Programmable Messaging

Text messages are an effective channel for time-sensitive alerts. With higher open rates and more immediacy than email, SMS helps you reach your users quickly. Companies like [PagerDuty](https://www.pagerduty.com/) use text messages to notify IT administrators of incidents as they happen.

These tutorials show you how to build a web application that sends alert messages to server administrators when an error condition occurs.
