Amerilert Version 2.4 Now Calls Traditional Wired
Phones, Satellite Phones, Mobile Phones, and VoIP Phones For Greater
Emergency Notification
The new enhancements include message confirmation
and more automated tools
LEESBURG, VA – August 13, 2007 – Omnilert™, LLC, maker
of the leading affordable emergency notification system called Amerilert™,
today announced the release of Amerilert version 2.4. A major new
enhancement to the service includes the ability for the system to
call phones and broadcast a message that recipients can listen to
and reply with confirmation that the message was received. Another
new feature, called SEED, ensures 100% alert coverage of all employees
from day one - whether they have opted-in to the alerts or not. This
new version will enable a greater broadcast of time-sensitive communication
to reach all employees, members, first responders, citizens, volunteers
and others whether they are at work, at home or elsewhere.
Now any authorized administrator can conveniently push an urgent
message to the organization’s Web site, to all digital visual
displays, alert beacons, and loudspeakers around the facility, and
to the phones, mobile phones, email accounts, and RSS readers of the
entire organization or community.
Major New Features
- Text-to-Voice: Broadcasts a voice message
to phones that enables confirmation of message received
- SEED: Automatically emails alerts to
all users on organization’s email server, without opt-in required
- Auto Opt-Out: Automatically removes
a person from notifications with user-defined expiration date
- NetID Match: Automatically inserts organization’s
existing username/password from LDAP, Active Directory, or UserID
for a subscriber into Amerilert
- Domain Authentication: SmartCode only
appears on authorized pre-defined URLs
Availability and Pricing
As a hosted solution or Software as a Service (SaaS), Amerilert 2.4
is available immediately. All organizations purchasing the new Amerilert
Voice service must also have Amerilert Text service. The Amerilert
Text service costs about $1 per person per year, depending on the
total number of people to be covered. Amerilert Voice service plans
start at $841 per year.
