| Competitive Features | 911 Headcount Differentiation |
|---|---|
| Live, Real-Time Checklist of Personnel |
|
| Most competitive systems lack the ability to generate a real-time, on-screen checklist during an emergency. | 911 Headcount rapidly conducts an on-screen electronic checklist of all employees and visitors. The list is automatically populated and refreshed every 5 seconds. |
| System Launch Capability in Emergencies |
|
| Competitors often require that alerts are launched from a desktop, which in an emergency may not be available. | 911 Headcount easily launches from any mobile device. This is critical when evacuating during crisis situations. |
| Visitor Tracking |
|
| Visitor Tracking is largely ignored by competitors. | 911 Headcount accounts for visitors, customers, contractors, temps, or anyone on the premises. |
| Power & Systems Redundancy |
|
| Competitors often depend on company power & systems. If power fails & cell phones are overwhelmed then notifications systems are nullified. | 911 Headcount is designed with TRIPLE REDUNDANCY. 911 Headcount promises 99.9999% reliability in any emergency. |
| Lineage |
|
| All competitive systems are almost all based on Business Continuity applications built to address marathon processes over days and weeks. | 911 Headcount is designed to sprint in an emergency when injuries and lives are counted in seconds. |
| System Independence |
|
| Most leading MENS are solely designed to be integrated with the employer’s IT departments. | 911 Headcount is a hosted, Internet-based system that is unencumbered by large, bureaucratic, IT organizations and restrictive rules. |
| Currency & Accuracy of Contact Information |
|
| Many notification systems depend solely on the currency of company databases. But contact info that is not current results in notification failures. | 911 Headcount contact info is obtained by 911 Headcount’s hosted system direct to the employee and visitor. Contact info is current and accurate. |
| Speed of System Start-Up |
|
| Competitive MENS are typically dependant on cumbersome start up with IT departments. This often leads to significant employee involvement, delays and costs to implement the system. | 911 Headcount is specifically designed to be quickly implemented by non-technical personnel. |
| Robust Communication |
|
| Message communications are often delivered on bandwidth-restrictive voice ports. | 911 Headcount message communications uses a high bandwidth, Internet-driven VOIP architecture. |
| Compliance with the Law |
|
| Competitors fail to adequately address the legal and compliance obligations of emergency planning. | 911 Headcount is specifically designed to answer the Police/Fire Chief’s question, “Can you account for all your people now?” Federal law requires this. |
| Patent Protection |
|
| The proprietary basis of competitor systems in unclear. | The 911 Headcount System is recognized by the U.S. Patent Office with a registered patent. |
| Multi-Platform Support |
|
| Competitive systems often support multi-platform message receipt. | 911 Headcount also supports message initiation across ALL multiple platforms. |
