AlertMedia vs. RedFlag

We use AlertMedia to send highly important messages to nurses that have deployed with us. We have used it to send messages to our current internal employees also. When we send messages out to people who have showed interest in working with us, we know what they are interested in by their profile information and their work specific groups.

RedFlag is extremely helpful in all sorts of emergencies. Whether it's a fire, natural disaster, inclement weather, active shooter, or even a cyber attack, this tool can be used for emergency notifications during all these situations. It can also be used for internal communication. You can send out notifications based on location through geotargeting, message groups together, or have one-on-one communication too. It's a great tool for making business decisions as well. You can use its polling feature for the same.

• Real-time notifications are a must for all urgent matters.
• Organization-wide and smaller, identified groups can be developed for AlertMedia notifications.

• Inform people of critical situations
• Gain feedback and insights

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

• Integration with pagers for communication. It’s not a big concern as only a few employees have requested for it. However, it’d help if RedFlag can implement that as well. I’m pretty sure they’ll; they keep coming up with updates regularly.
• Would love to see RedFlag go completely global.

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.

The support team for RedFlag is amazing. They are always there to address my needs and my dedicated account person is always working to help me. I think this is a differentiator for the company.

I found the team at RedFlag to be much more responsive and the features were more in line with what I needed. I also found the pricing to be much more in-line with my budget. It was the right solution for me.

• For the costs, AlertMedia has a high ROI as our organization requires all-agency and project groups urgent notifications on a regular basis.
• Immediate notification to agency legal counsel and human resource departments is definitely a plus.

Incentivized

• Positive as it has helped us reduce our emergency response time drastically. It’s also streamlined our internal communication and we’ve been able to reduce communication gaps to a great extent.
• Increased productivity due to ease of communication and quick decision making.
