The easier, the better, and this is what RAYVN does so well with the notification system: notifying pre-defined groups or individuals.

Sending notificationsMonitoring response1111

Using RAYVN, you can send notifications through each channel simultaneously and receive push notifications through the app. This method increases response rates and saves time. RAYVN uses the same phone number for all notifications, allowing customers to add the number to favorites and bypass Do Not Disturb mode.

In addition to notifications, RAYVN stores all correspondence regarding the incident. The details surrounding the incident are available to you and your team. Using RAYVN will eliminate the missed calls, notifications, and lost documentation that happens when using the above methods independently.

The best thing about RAYVN is that you can notify the whole organization with one press of a button. This saves us a lot of time during a critical event.

The notification feature in RAYVN is very useful, everything is managed automatically: you don’t have to make 10 phone calls yourself anymore.

It's really useful for the person, responsible for notifying the organization to use the CEMS  (Critital Event Management System) for notification. We are often spread around location-wise, so to be able to notify everyone without having to call is really of high value for us.
