Reading the click send website suggests the point is reach:

===

Some benefits of sending email to SMS include:

• Better reach: thanks to a 98% open rate, you know that your message
  will be seen.

• Have your message read faster, with a much faster open rate than
  email.

• All your email and SMS communication in the one place.

===

You might have trouble sending Whatsapps to me, as I am not on it.
