Keeping Calm in a Crisis

When you’re in a crisis situation, the need for swift action is paramount. It can be difficult to cut through the noise and keep management informed when the priority is solving the problem. What was originally an app for one company, has now grown to supply over 50,000 individual users with the security that they won’t be caught out if the worst happens.

In the case of an emergency, the incident response team are swiftly sent the relevant action plan and instructed to proceed in assisting employees caught up in the incident, and with oversight as to their potential position.

With the flexibility offered by PING to send messages in text, voice or even video format, it’s easy for users to send an alert message in the most appropriate way given the range of communication methods people prefer and the time of day.
