AlertMedia vs. OnSolve Critical Event Management & Mass Notification

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.

Its well suited for early warnings; wellness checks; repeatable long-term duration events. ITs easy to train admins on it. I dont really see any less appropriate uses -- you may not want to use it for EVERYTHING or people ignore messages. So your admins need to be smart about deploying its capabilities. but it has never let me down.

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.

We didn't compare them to other available notification systems

• 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.

• Employees demand this type of service exist
• In a cyber incident you need this kind of out of band mechanism to communicate
