Network Admin Mining & Metals ### "Great mass notification software with lots of customization" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 28, 2019 This product has been amazing, the support is great, integration is fantastic and the documentation is so good it is rare to see that level of details in products online - one other note on the documentation is that it is written for real world - it doesnt dive deep into the technology it gives what is needed with real examples. Pros The software was easy to setup and integrate with Cisco call manager. There was a ton of videos on their website to perform any task that was needed from setup to configuration. The amount of custom setups that can be done is great and when integrating with other products this one becomes even more powerful. Cons There were no real cons to this software - it does what is promised, it is low cost (for the most part) and scales very well. Reasons for choosing InformaCast I do not recall the other product names, but this one was the least cost with the most features with not a lot of overhead.

The support rep stayed on the line till we were all satisfied that the problem had been resolved. Pros Solid software that just does what I need it to do Cons Could use a bit work on the GUI to make things easier to navigate to Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Technology Director Education Management ### "Informacast Perfect for Small Schools" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 December 5, 2018 We run our bell schedules and our announcments. We are looking into the other features but this solves our needs for both. Pros The ease of use is the most valuable thing to me. As a district that has only 2 staff members in the IT dept, it becomes essential that the program be ease for all to use. The fact that I can also set schedules weeks in advance is a plus also. Cons Nothing as far as the program works. My own issue is that after I hit save on a page - I have to hit Done also.

Which is finally what matters. Pros It never malfunctions, at least for what we use it. Cons Price is a bit high, although it may be a value for those who use all its features.

Pros It works like it is said to and integrates with Cisco. Cons The gui feels old but it works. The update process is fairly in depth.

Computer Repair Technician Information Technology and Services ### "Great Product For A School District" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 November 8, 2018 Overall a great product and definitely useful in school districts with the ever growing threat of active shooters and other emergencies. Pros The ability to create groups of devices. In a large school district like the one I am in we are able to create a group for each school so each school can have the ability to make an all-call page on our Cisco phones. Cons It seems that it sometimes has troubles integrating with Cisco CUCM software.

All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor January 4, 2019 Thank you for the review!

Network Engineer Government Administration ### "Easy to use" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 November 5, 2018 Pros Integration with our Cisco CallManager was very easy to configure and implement. Cons So for the software has preformed as expected so no dislikes yet.

AU Anonymous User WAN Engineer Education Management ### "School System Use" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 November 4, 2018 Now that we understand that Informacast can do more than ring bells and make announcements, we plan to leverage the capabilities to improve student safety. A safe learning environment is priority one. Pros It is very easy to use and integrate with our Cisco phone system. It functions very reliably and the number of bell schedule supported as well as zones for making announcements are more than adequate for us. Cons We have it running on a BE6000 along with subscribers for CUC and UCM. I seems to slow things down a bit. I may move the VM to our data center. The interface is intimidating to non-technical staff. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor January 4, 2019 We're glad to hear InformaCast is working well in your school. We're working on improvements to our UI to make it easier for more people to use. Look for that update later in 2019. SM Stanley M. IT Director Religious Institutions ### "Great product great support!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 2, 2018 Pros The integration of an all in one notification system. The support is top notch, everyone at Singlewire is helpful. Cons Cannot purchase this directly from the manufacturer. Though my vendor is great, we are always at the mercy of a reseller. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor January 4, 2019 We're happy to hear you've had a positive experience with InformaCast.

Network Manager Insurance ### "InformaCast for safety & security" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 November 2, 2018 I have had nothing but great results with InformaCast. Since the days before they were acquired and then spun off again, the employees who are still there are core to the group and their support staff really understand the product and how it integrates into real world situation. This is one of the few products that I am comfortable writing a review for because I know that a year from now, they won't have abandoned their product values, support or any other core components of the software. Pros As a long time user of InformaCast products, I love how they have continued to improve on the core products without the need to spin off every improvement into a new sku ($$$$). Cons The product setup is much more complex than it used to be, though still much easier than any other enterprise software I have been involved with setting up. Then again, it used to be a basic paging system and now it is full-blown notification at every endpoint (not just a desk phone). Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor January 4, 2019 Glad to hear your organization is seeing great results with InformaCast! We appreciate the feedback on the setup. As you mentioned, inevitably, as the capabilities of the product grow, so do the setup steps. However, we are always looking for ways to make this as easy as possible and will continue to make improvements in the future.
