Pop-up alerts
Alerts are sent to computer screens and immediately get peoples’ attention, no matter what they are doing, so they can take appropriate action in an emergency situation.
Act Fast with a Panic Button Alarm System for Emergencies
Use panic button shortcuts to instantly send pre-defined emergency notifications to your staff, reaching thousands of people within seconds.
This emergency panic button system triggers alerts via PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone and sends notifications that can't be missed. You can use shortcuts to send pop-up alerts, full screen alertsб and scrolling tickers.
Whether you’re dealing with a fire, active threat, or security breach, a silent panic button helps protect people and operations discreetly.
Prepare Panic Button Alerts in Advance to Save Time During Critical Events
- Pre-create alerts in your panic button alarm system for business to cover likely emergencies such as fire, intruders, or severe weather.
- Use color coding to categorize alerts for faster publishing in high-pressure moments.
- Customize your panic button alert templates with titles, text, evacuation maps, or even video files to guide staff instantly.
