by Nathan March 31, 2022

We're excited to announce our latest enhancement to E911, lockdown and evacuation alerting.. Support for ALL on-premises and cloud telephone solutions!

Now, users of nearly any telephone solution can benefit from our full alerting capabilities, which include (but are not limited to):

- Email & native SMS

- Desktop screen pops

- Overhead pages

- Audible alerts on telephone sets

- Visual alerting hardware

- and more!

Not only can you send your staff alerts via all these paths, but you can also flexibly choose when, where and how to alert certain staff based on what best fits your needs. You can choose to selectively alert any on-site or off-site staff, or specify groups to notify depending on the type of incident. You can track staff responses and compel responses to ensure safety, and see in real-time if any staff left in the building, and where... and more.

The best part is that Genesis uses your existing telephone system(s), paging equipment, and smart devices to provide a total safety and alerting solution! No additional hardware to buy and no retrofits or replacement equipment or phone system upgrades are required. There is simply no easier or more cost effective solution available to you today!

Genesis alerts are now available in both standard text and adaptive card formats! Now users can choose easier to read, interactive alerts that allow responders to collaborate in real-time, track acknowledgments , and more. In addition to our mobile app solution Incident Aware, the addition of the new adaptive card features allows Genesis users to better collaborate and manage emergencies quickly and effectively.

Genesis has provided some of the most safety-forward 911 and other emergency alerting solutions for businesses for over 15 years. GenAlert started as a solution for providing simple notifications in the event someone dialed an emergency number, with options for including additional information related to location and personal details.

Genesis added a significant number of additional features in 2017, leveraging more telephone system features and capabilities to enhance the quality & visibility of emergency notifications, as well as providing additional tools for evaluating and archiving critical information for post-call analysis. GenAlert now gives users the ability to not only receive alerts in real-time when 911 is dialed, but also provides selective call audio recording, security staff call monitoring, dynamic location lookups, overhead & telephone-based paging capabilities, and much more.
