    The AlertMedia platform helped us with several key events, including an F3 tornado near one of our sites and a police situation in a residential neighborhood near our office. With both events, the mapping features allowed us to quickly understand our associates who may be impacted/affected and follow-up with them in a timely and efficient manner.

    The product is very user-friendly and Singewlire is constantly updating its features so that the consumer is able to utilize the service to its fullest potential. Our organization has used the product for the past 3 years and has been satisfied with how effortlessly it works in our environment. It allowed us to reduce the cost of using other products [Mass notification of employees and 911 call aware primarily] that we were previously using Singlewire offered it all together.

    Cons
    AlertMedia
    • A build-in template for notifications about various activities (weather, injury, etc.) would help make alerts more systematic in both appearance and content.

    Support from AlertMedia has been ongoing and very accessible. Staff are consistently available and quick to respond. And I was developing an organization-wide training for this system, I called and spoke with a recruiter/trainer who emailed several training slides and helpful tips that I was able to convert into an online training.

    AlertMedia slightly edges out Rave for general notifications; Plus, AlertMedia has a very robust Threat Intelligence features that I'm not aware that Rave has.
