Resgrid Responder vs eMessenger

Resgrid is a logistics, communication and management (LCM) system that can be used by fire departments (volunteer and career), police, emergency medical services (EMS), search and rescue (SAR), hazmat, CERT, emergency management and other first responder or disaster response organizations to coordinate, communicate and manage personnel, resources (units/apparatuses), incident and reporting. Resgrid will show you the status and staffing level of all your personnel and apparatuses. Set automated staffing schedules, attach notes, images and files to dispatches (calls), blast out messages, poll personnel, create and view callbacks and much more. Log calls, take notes, use the Big Board to show all information on a monitor in your station. Resgrid can manage your calls, generated either internally or from an external CAD system. Auto import calls via emails, text messages or API calls. Resgrid can dispatch via Push Notifications, Email, Text Messages and Voice Calls. So even your personnel without smart phones or cell phones at all can use land lines to get dispatched from anywhere in the world. Resgrid is the only complete LCM (Logistics, Communication & Management) system for first responders and disaster response. With a suite of mobile applications (for Personnel, Units, Incident Commands and Data Reporting) and a zero-installation cloud based SaaS backend you can get up and running in minutes. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Description: SARA’s eMessenger Mobile is an advanced alerting capability of Status Solutions’ Situational Awareness and Response Assistant (SARA), an automated alerting engine that provides integrated alarm monitoring, alerting/mass notification and reporting. SARA’s eMessenger Mobile turns Apple iPhone and iPad devices into mobile command and control centers for emergency alerting and response management. All life safety, security and environmental controls within a facility can be integrated with SARA for a single point of alarm management and therefore complete situational awareness. And with situational awareness comes the ability to deliver information about potential threats in real time to virtually any communication device – especially mobile ones equipped with SARA’s eMessenger Mobile – for faster, more efficient response, especially in an emergency. Organizations can retire obsolete communication technologies, such as pagers, and expand their use of mobile devices for greater flexibility and situational awareness in the palms of users’ hands. Responders then can deal with an unfolding event more quickly, initiate alerts and associated response plans more effectively, and escalate/notify others as necessary – all from one interface. Therefore, SARA’s eMessenger Mobile is critical to and unique in risk management because it: +Turns mobile devices into command and control centers with intuitive dashboards for situational awareness and response management +Delivers color-coded alerts from disparate alarm systems across a single facility, multi-building campus or large enterprise +Allows users to receive and initiate detailed alerts, including the nature of an alarm plus location data +Escalates alerting and response management by enabling key individuals or select groups of responders to be notified in a single touch +Provides approximate location data so clinicians and staff can locate an alarm source more quickly Command and control on the go and the ability to read, hear, see, do and then analyze information for real-time situational awareness is what SARA’s eMessenger Mobile makes possible for any organization.
