FIRSTCALL - Emergency Notification

We provide customizable solutions

Our hosted SaaS (Software as a Service) services protect nationwide ....

The FirstCall Network Emergency Notification Service uses voice, text, email and other digital delivery methods to instantly alert your citizens, students, staff, and others through a GIS notification service. In addition, employees, first responders as well as an unlimited number of your other emergency support personnel can be quickly called using flexible predefined lists. The notification alerts can be sent via voice to landline, cell and VOIP phones, via text to SMS devices and via email to individual email addresses.

Only From FirstCall ...

Capacity Sensing Technology When emergency calls are delivered to your community, each telephone company's Central Offices (CO) can only handle a finite number of calls at one time.

Urgent Situational Issue

When an emergency occurs, everyone starts to pick up their phone to call emergency officials and to check on or relay information about the emergency to family and friends. At that same critical time, you want alert calls to be sent out as quickly as possible.

Your Challenge

As a result, a digital logjam occurs because each of the telephone company's Central Offices (CO) can only handle a finite number of calls at one time.

Our Solution ...

Capacity Sensing Technology: We deliver as many calls as the telephone company's central offices in your area can handle by sensing and dynamically adjusting in real time when the volume of emergency calls will overload the CO. When the CO can take more calls, we immediately increase the volume of FirstCall emergency calls. FirstCall’s Capacity Sensing capability allows calls to be delivered faster than any other notification system in the world. We eliminate fast-busy responses and provide a higher percentage of call completion.

We are the only notification company to use Capacity Sensing technology.
