Emergency Safety for Educational Institutions

by lisa May 14, 2024

Ensuring the safety and security of Educational Institutions is crucial. With the implementation of Incident Aware by Genesis Systems, campuses transform their emergency response capabilities, revolutionizing how they handle crises and safeguard their Educational Community.

Knowledge is power, especially during emergencies. Incident Aware equips security staff with immediate access to crucial information during emergency incidents, enhancing the overall safety of the campus. Security personnel can now pinpoint the exact location of a caller on-site the moment a 911 call is made, allowing for swift and precise response actions. Real-time call monitoring further empowers security teams to initiate an effective response promptly, ensuring the well-being of everyone on campus.

With Incident Aware, the campus experienced a remarkable reduction in response time during emergency drills. Real-time notifications now reach all staff and students across the campus promptly, slashing the delay in reaching smaller buildings by several critical minutes. This swift response can mean the difference between safety and chaos in a crisis.

Genesis Systems has revolutionized emergency communication framework. Through innovative cloud and on-premises integration and alerting solutions offered by Incident Aware & GenAlert continues to lead the charge in providing innovative, reliable, and flexible solutions for meeting complex communication needs.

Benefits of switching to a Hosted Environment

by lisa April 26, 2024

In today's dynamic business landscape, staying competitive means embracing innovation, efficiency, and adaptability. One significant shift that forward-thinking businesses are making is transitioning to hosted software solutions. Moving away from traditional on-premises software to hosted options offers a multitude of benefits, revolutionizing the way companies operate. Let's explore why making this transition with your Genesis Software is a strategic move for any business. 

Cost-Effectiveness: Hosting software off-site eliminates hefty upfront investments in hardware, infrastructure, and maintenance. Through a subscription-based model with Genesis Systems, businesses enjoy predictable monthly expenses, avoiding unexpected costs from hardware failures.

Scalability: With Genesis Systems our hosted solutions offer scalability tailored to the needs of your business. Whether you're a small startup or a large enterprise, you can easily scale your software resources up or down as your business grows or requirements change. This flexibility ensures that you're never paying for more than what you need.

Accessibility with Flexibility: With hosted software, access isn't restricted to a single physical location or device. Employees can securely access applications and data from anywhere with an internet connection, enabling remote work, collaboration, and productivity. This flexibility is particularly advantageous in today's mobile-driven work environment.

Streamlined Maintenance & Support: Say goodbye to the hassle of managing software updates, patches, and troubleshooting. Hosted software providers handle maintenance tasks, ensuring that your applications are always up-to-date and running smoothly. Additionally, comprehensive support services are typically included, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

Enhanced Collaboration & Integration: Many hosted software solutions offer seamless integration with other business tools and applications, fostering collaboration and streamlining workflows. Whether it's integrating with PBX, paging system, or other communication tools, businesses can create cohesive ecosystems that enhance efficiency and decision-making.

By embracing hosted software, organizations can unlock new levels of agility, efficiency, and competitiveness, positioning themselves for long-term success in an ever-evolving marketplace. Contact Genesis Systems today to learn more about our hosted offerings.

What's Minimally Involved in Keeping Safe?

by Nathan March 18, 2020

For many, the current and upcoming 911-related legislation is a bit confusing. Some compliance deadlines have already passed, others are upcoming, and there's general confusion around which of these deadlines affect you.

Even though many organizations aren't explicitly required to (yet), I strongly encourage everyone to minimally start with implementing on-site alerting. This is both the least expensive component and where the greatest enhancement to on-site safety and response is realized. Additionally, it's either mandatory now or will be for your organization in the not-so-distant future.

Getting the location information to the answering PSAP is important, no question. This information helps PSAPs and their responding agencies in determining where to respond to (especially important for large campuses, multiple location organizations, or multi-floor buildings). Especially when help is several minutes away already, routing responders to the correct area is absolutely critical in ensuring help is not delayed in any way.

But what about those who are in the best position to provide immediate assistance? The often under-appreciated reality is that help is already on-site and available. Whether it be your security, first-aid, or in reality, any staff, you already have resources on-site and ready to assist prior to first responders arriving. This help comes in the moments when it is most critical.

On-site staff are able to respond immediately, and are in a position where they can start providing care immediately. Additionally, staff can prepare access for first responders, and be ready to direct them efficiently to where the emergency is once on-site. These realities all dramatically improve response time both prior to, and once first-responder help has arrived on-site.

Contact Genesis Systems for more information on E911, immediate emergency on-site alerting, and the features available to help improve your on-site emergency responses. These solutions provide improvements in response time of several minutes, at a time when every second counts.
