LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Today, Everbridge has made available the next generation of mass communication software, the first real-time interactive communications solution. Unlike any communications or ENS solution on the market, the new Everbridge solutions suite combines interactive visibility and mass notification allowing organizations to deploy a closed loop communications strategy around critical activities. The new Everbridge solutions suite simultaneously integrates social media networks and mobility to expand the reach and increase delivery of important, often life-saving, communications during major events.

Getting the right message to the right person at the right time
- Everbridge has made available a new solution called Mass Notification that combines notification capabilities with rich mapping and geo-targeting options into a single solution. With Everbridge Mass Notification you can improve the efficiency and the effectiveness of your critical communications.
Incorporating insight from social media into a critical communications strategy

With Everbridge, you can now harness the power of social media by extracting only the relevant, real-time data that is important to your organization.
"Ventura County has been fastidious testers of the new Everbridge system and believe that its ability to aggregate social media insight with our recipient response feedback and data feeds like weather, would allow our emergency management team to deploy resources where they are needed most in a crisis. The new Everbridge system cuts through the volume of information in Social Media and only provides us with what we need to know, helping us to provide a more efficient and targeted incident management response to our community," said Patrick Maynard, program manager, Ventura County, California.

With Everbridge, you can now enhance your existing emergency resources with your entire recipient network.

With a growing number of people using mobile devices as their main form of communication, they are not only essential for being able to reach our citizens, but they can provide an unprecedented level of accessibility, speed of delivery, and situational intelligence during the incident lifecycle," said Ken Parrish, manager at Pierce County Department of Emergency Management, , WA.
