Time Saves Lives: Faster Response with the Activate Emergency Notification Solution (ENS)

District-wide ENS for Faster Incident Management

Threats can originate from people, acts of nature, or weather. When an emergency occurs, every second counts. Activate for K-12 and community college districts is a turnkey, one-touch emergency notification system (ENS) that integrates with your existing infrastructure to generate faster responses when a crisis occurs.

Activate ENS offers a comprehensive set of tools to help Districts prevent, prepare for, respond to, and recover from almost any kind of safety threat.

Districts have traditionally relied on multiple technologies to send mass emergency alerts to their students, faculty, staff, and local authorities using real-time information. However, due to the many activation points, distributing information across multiple notification systems can take up to 30 minutes to fully deploy. When seconds count, one-touch activation can save lives.
