Why Mass Alerts?
Mass alerts are
the most efficient and quickest way to reach
people today, period!
With most of the
population carrying cell phones, there is no
easier or quicker way to delivery portable
messages to individuals than with text/SMS
message technology. More than 91% of
students and 95% of business professionals carry
cell phone with them on a daily basis.
Years ago, phone
dialing systems were created and marketed as a
way to deliver messages that were urgent or
emergency related. These systems failed to
deliver messages in a reasonable amount of time
and in a timely manner. The principle
issue with these system was that they do not
work well during high volume delivery.
During the September 11th terrorist attacks most
wired and wireless call attempts were not
successful, but cell phone/SMS text
messages went thought just fine, due to the
efficiency of this delivery method and the fact
that less bandwidth is required.
Up to this time,
many technologies have been introduced that can
alternatively deliver messages to end users.
These have been marketed to businesses and
schools and include features that send emails
and even provide pop-up alerts on an end user's
desktop. Most of these systems required
expensive software to be installed within the
user's network and even additional software or
hardware to be purchased for their server.
It was also common for operational issues or
bugs to appear and cause downtown to such
systems.
Our system is
turn-key and does not require any software,
hardware or additional technology support
investments on your part. There is no
worry to purchase additional bandwidth or worry
about servers going down or crashing. |
