Company overview

Verso Corporation (now Billerud Americas Corporation) was a North American producer of coated papers, including coated groundwood, coated freesheet, and specialty products.

Summary

Manual alerts weren’t fast enough for Verso Corporation’s mill safety and IT teams. They adopted DeskAlerts to instantly notify employees during emergencies, such as fires, chemical leaks, and system outages. With DeskAlerts, they drastically improved notification speed, enhanced employee safety, and ensured real-time communication across critical departments.
