Internal Communication vs. Mass Notification: What’s More Beneficial for Your Organization?

By Kat Wilkerson, Content Marketing Specialist at Alertus Technologies

When keeping everyone safe is a priority, there is much to consider when selecting a notification system for your organization. Choosing one that is scalable and easy to use is vital, but it must also be reliable, secure, and reach as many people as quickly as possible.

However, not all communication is created equal, and different communication channels are ideal for different types of communication. For example, communication tools for critical incidents will differ from those used for routine internal communication.

Internal communication tools have their limits as an enterprise, highly scalable mass notification solution. Inefficient internal communication often creates organizational problems, including uncertainty among employees and a lack of an effective crisis communication plan. Some organizations may benefit from using these tools as routine or HR communication methods, but they should not solely rely on them to keep employees informed during a critical incident.

Whether you’re looking to facilitate incident reporting for your staff, or full-system activation for your emergency dispatchers, we have the tools to keep your people safe and your business running by delivering immediate alerts.
