Whether you represent a medical facility, law enforcement agency, church, or business — during an emergency, quick and accurate communication is essential. Every PhoneTree® system is designed to make these necessary notifications and free your staff to focus on the situation at hand. You can rest assured that within minutes, the necessary people will be provided with the information needed to make critical decisions.

Many organizations understand how crucial time-sensitive communications can be...

• In the event of an emergency many things must happen fast.
• Information must be delivered immediately.
• Staff members must be notified with specific and detailed instructions quickly.
• The public must be informed fast. Precious seconds and precise information can save lives.
• You must know the status of the delivery of your messages.

PhoneTree® systems utilize the latest in phone messaging technology to deliver emergency notifications. PhoneTree® OnDemand™ allows you to make routine calls without incurring a cost (by using a PhoneTree USB unit — regular calling fees/rates still apply) and opt to use PhoneTree® OnDemand™ when time is more critical (small per-call charge, varies depending upon job size). PhoneTree® OnDemand™ will deliver your messages to thousands of people within minutes and allow you the same robust feature set the industry demands. Because PhoneTree® OnDemand™ does not use a web browser interface, users are not limited to a small and sometimes incomplete set of features. When the job is complete, you get the data back in your software allowing you to process robust reports for the ultimate in accountability.

Total Remote™ Operation rovides the Ultimate in Flexibility.
The PhoneTree® telephone messaging system's Total Remote™ feature is as easy as picking up a telephone. Yes, you can start a calling job to thousands with just a phone call! Of course you can also start the job from any network PC as well.
