Communication in a crisis
The current security climate, along with new legislation, now requires schools, colleges, and universities to respond effectively to emergency situations that may threaten the safety of students, staff, and visitors.
Maintaining safety during such events is essential. Callmy Alert provides an intuitive lockdown and mobilisation system specifically designed to meet the needs of educational institutions.
The system supports full or partial lockdowns, evacuations, and invacuations, helping institutions comply with legislative requirements.
To deliver added value, Callmy Alert also has integrated features that support lone working security and personal safety.
If students or members of staff find themselves in a threatening situation, the SOS function is activated and a responding team is notified. The response team can see where the SOS has been activated and also the locations of all other members of the security team – who may be able to provide immediate assistance.
The response team can also see the SOS users contact details, track their GPS location* and access the microphone on their device – to hear what is happening at the scene.

A dedicated service to improve response
Callmy Alert will enable you to post text, voice and picture messages in an instant, which relevant parties consume via a dedicated app, desktop alerts or SMS. If required each Callmy Alert message can be configured to request an appropriate response – the responses monitored in real-time via the Callmy Management Portal.

Cost effective and simple to deploy
Being cloud based there is no equipment to deploy or complex system integration issues to overcome. Callmy Alert is also a survivable service, which won’t be effected by IT failures or cyber attacks.
The ability to easily keep user details updated is another benefit, as is the being able to push notification to desktops, tablets, and phones.
The Callmy Management Portal also provides real-time date on all message activity and historic reports for audit purposes.
Overcoming the communication challenge?
A crisis will inevitably cause an added burden on communications resources and infrastructure – notwithstanding it has survived the situation and is accessible. News of a crisis is hard to control – it’s now the public and not the media who are the gatekeepers. The “story” may be global before you have time to react and this can be detrimental to managing the situation on the ground.
Sharing information effectively, locating contacts and maintaining situational awareness are key consideration. There is, therefore, a fundamental need to deploy survivable communication services, which are simple to manage and cost effective to deploy.
