### "Reliable software trusted by large companies"

January 23, 2025

5.0

Reliable system that does the job. Only issue is the emails ask us to click a link to acknowledge receipt, however our internal IT policy is to avoid clicking on links for security reasons.

Pros

Reliably send notifications via phone call, text and email

Cons

The use of links to acknowledge receipt of the message

### "Crisis Management Tool for Our Teammates - Everbridge Mass Notification"

September 21, 2022

4.0

Everbridge is a core foundation to our risk and security program. It allows us to quickly get a hold of our teammates and make them aware of any event that may impact their health or safety. It also allows them to respond to notifications.

Pros

Everbridge is very simple to use but very powerful. It integrates into our HRIS system, removing the burden of adding or removing employees (contacts). It allows us to create groups (manually or automatically).

Cons

Reporting and dashboard reporting needs to be improved in Everbridge. It's also difficult to create rule-based groups.

I use this product often during the week and am very pleased with it

Pros

I use this product every time we have to do a mass notification through the PD or Fire department. It is the easiest product ever!

Cons

To be honest there is not anything I don't like about this product. Its functional and so easy to use. Everyone gets the notification at once and is alerted via phone or email

### "Easy Solution for Notifications"

January 4, 2019

5.0

This tool has come in handy. For example, we were able to notify county residents to avoid a deadly gas spill on a highway that was closed off.

Pros

I like the ability to notify residents within a drawn geographical region.

Cons

The one thing I least like is that in order for persons to receive notifications they would need to subscribe prior. We overcame this by promoting the service.

### "A Tool That Offers Cohesive Emergency Notification Process With Built-In Alerting Function"

September 27, 2020

5.0

Everbridge, in conjunction with organization's internal ITSM technology, facilitates consistent, glitch-free, prompt and complete communication every time to responders and stakeholders. Based off of the preconfigured business rules, Everbridge covers emergency alerting for IT outages, Cyber Security Breaches, Power Outages and Major IT Escalations.

Pros

Everbridge adds notable business value by adhering to right IT Service Management processes and ITIL standards which significantly reduces negative impact of operational issues, improves productivity, saves production slowdowns and expedites communication for critical outages/incidents. This tool complies with organizational and industry guidelines, which is really an important factor.

Cons

Customization from Administrator's standpoint can be improved in order to let the Admin can make changes to default message templates as well as can edit reporting capability, per business and process owner's requirements.

Reason for choosing Everbridge Mass Notification

I was not included in the business team which made this decision

### "Mass notifications "

November 25, 2020

5.0

Pros

Everbridge is a great system that notifies all contacts on your account with the emergency or notice needed. Notifications are sent out to every email, phone number or cell phone listed on the contact account so it will be received in many forms.

Cons

Everbridge sends the notice out to each contact phone number at the same time. For example a work phone number and a personal cell phone will ring at the same time.

### "Everbridge Review"

May 22, 2024

5.0

I have used Everbridge Mass Notification with multiple organizations. The ability to get the message out to large groups quickly, especially in emergent situations is absolutely critical.

Pros

The ability to quickly communicate to an entire organization or specific group of people in a quick efficient manner.

Cons

Sometimes the different modules feel disconnected from each other in design and use.

Reason for choosing Everbridge Mass Notification

Unknown. This product was implemented prior to my tenure with my current organization.

### "Polished, effective tool- but pricey "

February 23, 2022

4.0

This is a nice looking program with a somewhat intuitive flow when you understand how it works. At first glance it looks confusing, however, after using it once or twice it becomes more apparent on how the flow works. It is very expensive, especially compared to other programs with similar features. The contacts management can be cumbersome. For example, if a contact is part of multiple organizations, (i.e. police officer/EMT) you want them part of different lists, you need a unique "employee identifier" for each entry which is cumbersome when this contact would switch badge numbers for a promotion or something similar. It would be better to be able to list this contact with "skill sets" so you could select everyone with that skillset instead of having to select different contacts from multiple agencies.

Pros

This software is extremely polished and professional looking. It is not very complicated once you get accustomed to the software which does not take very long.

Cons

The cost. This platform is EXTREMELY expensive compared to very similar products. Another platform with VERY similar features is almost half the cost.

### "Great Notifications System"

My team members all love how simplistic this software is.

Pros

I was able to get a demo before purchase for global company. Love the ease in use. Users caught on quickly after demo.

Cons

The cost..... compared to our previous system this was a little more.... but you get what you pay for.

### "Everbridge Alerts"

November 22, 2019

5.0

So far it has been great!

Pros

It is very efficient and fast. One think that bothers me with apps is that they can be slow and often lag with responses, but I have noticed when our company sent a mass notification, I quickly received it and the options to respond that I have received the notification was very straightforward. It definitely is a great way to notify large groups of people particularly with alerts that could pertain to safety for everyone to be aware of. I'm looking forward to seeing what more this app can provide. I even found the option of sharing my location so I can receive notifications from the surrounding area which reminds me of the Ring app but is also for convenient as this would be more aligned with me job rather than my home.

Cons

So far not much that I have to complain about. It works as it should and I have not noticed any glitches or issues. Perhaps if there could be an option to allow a sound that comes up when an alert is sent that is immediate as I am not always looking at my phone especially when it is on silent.

October 9, 2020

4.0

Pros

You can get the word out (or call for help) quickly. Especially during a disaster.

Cons

Sending the alert itself could be more convenient. Since you have to get back to a computer.

### "For when the message has to get there"

September 22, 2020

5.0

Very easy to keep in touch and up to date with emergency or necessary information.

Pros

This software is very easy to use. All messages are sent in mass with the option to reply as received.

Cons

Repeated updates can be annoying. Instead of a single message, every update is sent whether or not information changes.

### "Easy to use for giving office access and permissions"

December 27, 2022

5.0

Its gives digital Id to the visitors in the office with time stamps. Great for conducting interviews and office gatherings. Its pretty straightforward to use. Keeping the database of them is also very easy. The notifications comes on multiple channels.

Pros

Its very easy to use. We use it for granting access to visitors in the office premises. The notifications are sent on multiple platforms within no time. Also it saves a lot of paper work.

Cons

Needs specific person approval to create the ID and granting access. Its not app's issues per say.

### "Everbridge Review "

October 29, 2019

4.0

It has been good and beneficial to help everyone stay informed.

Pros

I like a quick way to be communicated about building/road closures. Versus waiting for a text message or a phone call if any.

Cons

I dislike having to have the app on my phone for something occasionally/rarely needed. Wish there could be a mass email program.

### "Everbridge Tool "

March 23, 2021

4.0

Pros

I liked the ability to be able to record your own voice for phone call messages. This was a nice touch.

Cons

The training was lengthy and difficult. It was also very hard to focus on listening to training sessions with a computer voice and not an actual recording or teacher. The platform was complicated and not always user friendly.
