OneSignal partners with Microsoft so app owners easily use their messaging solution

OneSignal this week announced an integration with Microsoft Visual Studio App Center. App owners will get SQL-like analytics on notification performance, views of customer paths through the app. This enables app owners to use Microsoft Visual Studio App with OneSignal as messaging solution.

OneSignal says that is currently powering more than 4 billion push notifications a day for more than 700,000 app owners.

According to OneSignal, Visual Studio App Center users adopting OneSignal as their push notifications provider benefit from having notification options than the built-in functionality of App Center, such as user segmentation, web push support, automated messaging, A/B testing, and unlimited audience sizes.

OneSignal users who also use Visual Studio App Center will be able to send their analytics events to Microsoft App Center, which offers querying tools. These tools enable the integration of events across the apps allowing more complex data analysis than OneSignal currently supports, and allows app owners to join events from the app with crash reporting, Azure services, and other sources.
