OnPage Adds Mass Messaging to Enable All-Around Notifications
WALTHAM, Mass. (PRWEB) April 23, 2018 -- OnPage Corporation, the industry’s leading Secure Incident Management System, today announced the addition of mass messaging capability, BlastIt, to its product offerings. OnPage BlastIt is designed to help organizations enhance their current communication management plan and streamline effective communications not just with the response team but also with employees, vendors and clients in times of crisis.
“Communicating in a crisis situation is paramount for all businesses, ensuring that the message gets to the right people in a timely manner through multiple channels with acknowledgement capability is key” said Paul Sullivan VP of Strategic Alliance.
Effective Incident crisis communications plans call for at least two types of communication:
1. Critical notifications to stakeholders, response teams and business continuity teams which require an immediate, distinct notification with Alert-until-Read, automatic acknowledgement, redundancies, escalations, schedules and reporting capabilities; all of which are currently provided with the OnPage incident management system.
2. Mass notification using email, SMS or voice to those affected by the incident, to provide information and instructions as to what happened and what actions they should take (i.e. network is down – stand by, execute evacuation plan, , snow day – stay home, reminders, etc.) along with acknowledgement that the message was received. This capability is now available via OnPage BlastIt.
By providing customers with both communications capabilities, OnPage has expanded the communication reach of organizations to their entire business ecosystem.
“We live in a digital age in which instant communication is important to every business and is vital in case of a crisis” said Judit Sharon, CEO of OnPage. “As information flows freely among employees, customers, vendors and other stakeholders, it is imperative for organizations to have a premeditated, reliable communication plan for quickly reaching all those affected by drawing upon modular templates that are easily accessed in a crisis situation and can be acknowledged. We developed OnPage BlastIt to fulfil this need”.
OnPage released BlastIt in response to numerous requests from existing customers searching for an effective tool that will encompass all the communication necessary to effectively manage an incident. BlastIt can be used either in conjunction with the OnPage incident management system or as a standalone feature.
