Alertus System Features & Capabilities

Monitor incidents and activate alerts from a single, powerful platform

The Alertus Mass Notification System is built on the power of the Alertus Server and is managed through our intuitive user interface. The System is designed from the ground up to be fully flexible in its configuration of recipient groups, preset messages, user controls, restrictions, and many other points of customization. It can be built to meet your organization’s specific needs, from emergency alerting to routine enterprise communication.

Whether you’re looking to facilitate incident reporting for your staff or full-system activation for your emergency dispatchers, Alertus has the tools to deliver immediate alerts when and where you need them most.

One-Touch Activation

Regardless of the number of devices or systems in your notification portfolio, notifying all or select individuals is crucial to effective emergency notification. Alertus’ one-touch activation provides just that. With numerous activation methods, including panic buttons, desktop activators, VoIP phones, and more, you can customize the activation of your organization’s system to fit your specific needs. Whichever you choose, your alerts are just one touch away.

Targeted Alerting

Ensuring the right people get the right message is critical during an emergency. Alertus offers many ways to segment message audiences, including:

  • Geo-targeted alerts on the fly with an interactive map interface

  • Pre-configured alerting groups in alignment with your communication plans

  • User-based alerting with active directory or LDAP integration

  • Subscribed lists for mobile app

  • Grouping by buildings or functional areas

Preset Alerts

Build preset alerts, alerting groups, and devices to simplify the alerting process. Access to preset alerts can be based on User Roles, and alerts can be tailored to an endless variety of notification scenarios, including:

  • Active shooter

  • Tornado/severe weather

  • Infant abduction

  • Routine announcements

Comprehensive Reporting

The notification and monitoring component of the Alertus Server substantially increases the manageability, reliability, and visibility of the system while decreasing system testing and maintenance time.

  • Daily digest emails of system health

  • Alert histories

  • Recipient acknowledgements

  • Device activation, acknowledgment, and health status

  • Group, location membership reports

  • Event dashboards

Automated Alerting

Alertus’ open API allows for easy and seamless integration with various legacy mass notification technologies. This enables Alertus to unify disparate systems under one powerful system with an intuitive user interface that offers preset and on-the-fly activations that can be deployed with a single click of a button.

  • Automated: Active Directory integration – keep Alertus Desktop clients updated automatically and automatically monitor inbound alert feeds: CAP/IPAWS RSS/NOA/Accuweather/social media

  • Immediate: Physical activation buttons or software options with the Alertus Desktop Activator and via the Alertus Activator App.

Safe, Secure & Supervised

The Alertus Server is available as an on-site solution (cloud hosting available). It offers increased reliability and security since it is dedicated exclusively to your organization and does not depend on external Internet connectivity. Additionally, data is retained on-site, and leveraging existing infrastructure can often reduce costs. Notification points periodically check in with the server to determine whether an alert has been initiated and devices are active or disabled.
