InformaCast emergency notification software from Singlewire software is best suited for IT and security professionals, as well as anyone in charge of the duty of care responsibilities for their organization in industries that include K12 and higher education, healthcare, manufacturing, business, government and retail.
InformaCast emergency notification software is focused on one thing: people’s safety. With InformaCast, organizations don’t need to worry about managing different systems. They can do it all from one easy-to-use interface. With the ability to connect to a variety of devices and to send messages in multiple formats, InformaCast helps organizations reach everyone in an organization when an emergency occurs. This means they have the information they need to stay out of harm’s way.
While initial setup and configuration require some technical proficiency, day-to-day operation of the InformaCast system does not require advanced technical knowledge. Once its setup its intended to be used by anyone who wants to keep people in their organization safe. It offers an easy-to-use web interface, and it can be configured so all someone needs to do is push a button to send an emergency alert.
Singlewire Software has been a leader in this space for nearly 10 years. We’ve done this by always putting people’s safety first, and striving to develop a tool that is always evolving to meet the needs of the world we live in. That’s led us to develop the only emergency notification system on the market that allows users to manage all of their devices (mobile and on-premises) and messages from a single web interface. This saves organizations time and headaches because they only need to log into one system to get the word out when an emergency occurs.
Singlewire Software’s InformaCast emergency notification system competes with other mass notifications platforms from companies like Everbridge, Rave Mobile, and OnSolve.
These competitors are primarily focused on mass SMS text messaging when it comes to sending emergency notifications. Leveraging one channel for communication during a crisis is never ideal, which is why InformaCast from Singlewire Software can send emergency messages to a wide range of devices in a variety of formats.
It is also the only emergency notification system on the market that allows users to manage all of their devices (mobile and on-premises) and messages from a single web interface. This saves organizations time and headaches because they only need to log into one system to get the word out when an emergency occurs.
On average, Singlewire Software provides eight major release updates to InformaCast each year. These updates address the user experience, new features, and integrations, and incorporate ideas based on customer feedback to deliver the best solution possible.

InformaCast’s vast ecosystem means that messages are delivered to many different endpoints and organizations are able to utilize your existing communications infrastructure more effectively.
