Prepare important notifications in advance to save time when it is needed the most

  • Create alerts in advance covering the most likely emergency scenarios (fire, intruder, inclement weather etc.)
  • Use alert color coding to categorize your messages based on the nature of ongoing emergency for quicker publishing.
  • Templates can be customized as much as you need, including adjusting colors, titles, and text. You can even insert images such as evacuation maps or video files.
  • Choose which users the messages will be sent to. For example, if the emergency is affecting one floor of a building only, you can send to just those saft members.
